The SF Ferry Building… what are you doing this Saturday???
You have to go to The Farmer’s Market at the San Francisco Ferry Building! (8am-2pm every Saturday, Tuesdays and Thursdays also, but there aren’t as many vendors) This is the perfect time of year to go!!! Beautiful flowers, beautiful weather, beautiful produce and not too crowded. Late spring leading into summer is my favorite time. I love to taste my way from the front to the back and then go inside for more epicurean delights! The whole market is wonderful, but here are a few of my favorites.
I start from the front and never miss a taste from this gentleman doling out his Dark Chocolate Almond Brittle
Don’t miss all the flowers!! Bring a big bag to collect all your lovely treasures!
I love to buy fresh eggs, jams, yogurts, cheeses, breads and vegetables, you can even find heirloom plants to put in your own garden!
I love the Salmon Candy from Cap’n Mikes Holy Smoke, the yogurt from Saint Benoit, the conserves from June Taylor, and the preserves from Glashoff Farms. Once inside the Ferry Building, pick up some olive oil from Stonehouse, cheeses from Cowgirl Creamery, salted caramels from the Village Market and macarons from Miette!!!
Try the Salmon Candy from Cap’n Mike!
After all of your hunting and gathering, be sure to stop for some sustenance! The Slanted Door is the perfect place for a mojito and a delicious lunch!
There is not a time when I am in San Francisco that I don’t find my way to this wonderful market, I can never get enough of all the fabulous flavors, sights and experiences that this amazing place has to offer. You need to go and let me know your favorite discoveries!!!
