A couple more "feria words": YAPA means that extra fruit/item they may want to throw in when you buy a couple of kilos, something akin perhaps to the baker's dozen? MEDIA means half a dozen, as in "deme media, no más". Finally, one of the best things about ferias for people without the time to prepare healthy food, you can buy premade salads in small bags of two portions, usually around quina ($500) or 3xLuca ($1000).

One is up in los Dominicos, at the end of Apoquindo, right at the foot of El Pueblito. The only place besides supermarkets with decent fish (Jumbo, some Liders) where I could/would buy albacora.And then the one on Isabel la Catolica con Manquehue. Gorgeous displays of produce. Both slightly pricier than your average feria, of course. In the latter you can even buy some Peruvian wares, such as rocoto, cilantro sauce... yum! Two of the prettiest ferias are in Las Condes.
