This cobblestone street is home to many of the city's food shops.  Smells
swirl up and down the street, most of them calling your name.  Tables are
located near each shop for those who cannot wait to enjoy their food.  The
smells of cookies and sweets mix with those of cooked meats here,
tantalizing every taste bud.  Patrons stroll along with their purchases,
nibbling on them as they walk.  
     There is a weathered wooden hitching post here.
A black raven perches here waiting for prey.
A mangy, disease-ridden dog shivers here, scratching at fleas.
