Corn cobs are placed on a stationary little oven, fuelled by glowing coal, and fanned with primitive type fans made of beards’ feathers till cooked. They are favorites with children and grownups alike. The corn vendors are stationed all along the Corniche, and sometimes on tram stations. Nowadays their prices have gone up, and vary according to size, tenderness of the corn, or neighborhood, and you may have to bargain occasionally!
