What still needs checking

◷ Source checked 2026-09-23; some practical details still need direct confirmation.

Prices in the intake are per bowl or per dish, so a crawl of three or four stops comes to more than any single figure. Almost no English at stall level.

No public source link is available yet. The practical notes above explain what still needs confirmation.
