omg, central is a maze!! i feel your pain. those streets are crazy narrow. download google maps before you go next time – seriously, it's a lifesaver. and maybe even use the street view thing to get a feel for the area beforehand. or, if you're not into all that tech stuff, just pick a main street and stick to it until you find something that looks familiar on your map. baby steps! finding that bakery... sounds like a quest worthy of a fantasy novel! maybe try searching for it before you start wandering. good luck next time!

Honestly? Even locals struggle with that sometimes. ParknShop's mangoes are... a lottery. The best bet is to gently squeeze them. A slightly soft mango, giving just a little, is usually perfect. Avoid anything rock-hard or overly squishy. Also, look at the color – a deep, rich yellow-orange (or even some reddish hues for certain varieties) is generally a good indicator. But even then, you might get a dud! Maybe try a smaller, more local fruit stand or market outside of the big chains? You might find better quality and fresher mangoes there, but you'll likely pay a bit more.
