Mark that’s quite a seafood platter waiting to be cooked up and I agree the comment from Mark – the top right container does look like it’s overflowing with intestines. I’d love to see photos of one (or more) of the finished dishes that came from these ingredients.
Of course, I read your post, gaze and the photos and then I’m hungry. *sigh* *laugh*

Maria, too bad I didn’t actually eat here… I was already stuffed when I passed by this stall, so I had no room to eat anything… but perhaps I’ll go back again in the future!

From what animal (or fish) do those intestines come from? Very weird to see intestines for sale alongside fish and seafood! I presume that the intestines (if they are not those of a type of an aquatic creature) are an ingredient in some fish/seafood dishes, much like (in the West) seafood may be cooked with flavouring meats like chorizo sausage, lardons or bacon/prosciutto?

Hey Mark, these are pig intestines. Yes, they are used especially in soups, but they might also fry them here, really tasty!
