I always have a special attachment to farmer markets and public markets. Every time when I see those little stalls of fresh produce, gourmet foods markets and specialty shops, I'm so delighted and I know I'll find something special there.
Yet, we've never been to the Los Angeles Farmers Market. It has been there forever and it's celebrating its 75th anniversary. So we decided to check it out.
They have some stores been there since 1934. Like Magee's House of Nuts, opened since 1917 and relocated to the market since 1934. They sell all different kinds of nuts and spreads. And they make their peanut butter right there. Besides peanut butter, they have specialty ones like cashew butter and macadamia nut butter.
They have a store selling only hot sauce and a French Market has tons of Cheese and Wine, and the unrealistic looking pretty pasta.
A doughnut shop has cat and dinosaur donuts.

We couldn't leave without trying the food there. There were so many choices, from American, to French, to Asian. We've chosen this New Orlean's Cornmeal Breaded Fried Shrimps. It was served with cornbread and pecan green salad. That little marinara looking and tasting dipping sauce was good and a little spicy. And we also got a Texan Barbeque Ribs dish. It was perfectly cooked and nicely seasoned.
The only downside of the market was there weren't that many fresh produce stalls, or not as many as expected. And it's not as clean as other ones we've been to. Other than that, it is an interesting place. =)
Happy Sunday!
