Recently I saw a board advertising Rosemead Farmer's Market and I decided to check it out…read more [Hours]: Monday from 5 PM to 9 PM; however this market has a history of not opening for an entire year as this is a seasonal market. The market used to be located in Civic Center Plaza, but it has moved to Rosemead Park (right next to the basketball courts). [Parking]: To my surprise, it was not easy to find a spot to park. Rosemead Park is a popular spot for local residents to come and exercise, so I had to park at the lot for Encinita Elementary School. [Amenities]: No dogs allowed in food court. No skateboard, no bike, no scooters, no hover boards, and no roller skates. There are plenty of restrooms in Rosemead Park, but park restrooms aren't exactly super clean. [Vendors]: I spotted jerky, tamales, michelaguas, Hong Kong waffle, Hawaiian shaved ice, two fruit/vegetable vendors, aguas fresca, kettle corn, and miscellaneous accessory stands. Honestly this is one of the smallest and emptiest farmers markets I have visited. The market was pretty dead when I got here at 8 PM and you can hardly call this a farmers market with just two fruit/vegetable vendors. This market felt more like an outdoor food court than an actual farmers market.

There are three long booths for fruits and vegetables. A booth in the back for jerky and tamales. There is music playing and another booth for Rae honey and another for jewelry. A few other booths for other things but I didn't check them out to see what they offer.

OG Sugarcane Spot Still Hits Different…read more This spot has been the OG go-to for sugarcane drinks for as long as I can remember. Small is $7, large is $8, and no ice is around $14. I still remember when these drinks used to be about $5... but let's be honest, that was a whole lifetime ago at this point lol. Even with all the newer sugarcane spots popping up with coconut water twists and fancy add-ons, nothing really compares to a classic, straight-up sugarcane juice. No extras needed--just pure, fresh sweetness the way it's supposed to be. Haven't been here in a few years, so I'm actually glad to be back. Plenty of parking right in front, and while the shop also carries a lot of Chinese herbs and remedies, don't get distracted--come for the sugarcane. Simple, nostalgic, and still hits every time. Happy sips

I believe it's cash only…read more There's another sugarcane in this plaza but this one is much better. You can call ahead to place an order but they don't take too long if you order it there. They juice by the order. They speak English, Vietnamese and Canto! Parking in lot is either a ton of parking or you may need to wait for one but, it's not too bad. Nothing in between, there are lunch and dinner rushes for the restaurants in the shared plaza. Soo good on a hot day or just an after lunch sweet! Wished they stayed open later in the evening.. for an after dinner sweet.

My first visit to this farmer's market went great! Parking was easy to find around 7:30 in the…read moreevening. It appeared that there was a movie night going on in the field. The band's performance was good! I love the variety of stands. They had coffee, boba, desserts like cookies, waffles, cheesecake bites, pupusas, tamales, hummus, yogurt, tacos, honey, kettle corn, peanuts, and aguas frescas. My favorites were the elotes stand, the stand next to it making tofu skewers, and the hummus stand. The corn was sweet and tasty! The skewers were delicious! The business owner, George, said it was his fourth week at this farmer's market. If you enjoy tofu, definitely give it a try! I also picked up different types of hummus and pita bread. I got basil hummus, chipotle hummus, avocado hummus, and spicy pepper hummus. I also had a taco de birria. The taco had a generous amount of birria but unfortunately lacked flavor. The consome also lacked flavor. I will be returning to try other items and getting a tofu fix!

It is currently back at Barnes Park near City Hall around the tennis/pickleball courts. The band that was playing there 2 Thursdays ago was surprisingly very good. I would go back just to listen to them play. The market has a variety of cooked to order foods, drinks, and kettle/caramel corn. There were only a couple of booths offering fresh fruit & vegetables for purchase. Our highlight was our Leaflet drinks. Interesting flavors and yes they tasted good! We ordered a Blue Butterfly tea, Dear Jasmine coffee and I honestly don't remember the third drink. The dear Jasmine was my favorite but I am partial to coffee. If you are in the area on a Thursday late afternoon -early evening, stop by and enjoy the small farmer's market.

Came to this location around 7:20pm because I needed a gallon of sugarcane juice. They told me they…read moredon't make gallon orders after 7pm. My question is... where does it say that? There wasn't a sign, no notice, and nobody mentioned it beforehand. If that's really the policy, you guys need to post a sign so customers don't waste their time driving over. I literally walked out, called the Alhambra location, and they had no problem making the exact same order for me. Not much else to say. If it's a real policy, communicate it better. Otherwise you're just sending customers somewhere else.

I tried the Pandan Mung Bean Rice cakes from here and they were pretty good! The pandan rice cake…read morepart was like a jelly texture and the mung bean filing was soft. Both of the flavors were on point and not too sweet. Good, but I would've preferred more of a mochi-like texture for this than jelly. I found these at the A Dong Supermarket in Westminster, CA. The price for this was pretty good. Definitely would love to try their other rice cakes.

I spotted Kun Tak's mochi at Shun Fat Supermarket in Little Saigon and grabbed two boxes to try,…read moreended up loving them so much that I went back for three more! The red bean, black sesame, and taro flavors are all delicious. The mochi is super soft, and at just $4.29 for a box of four, it's such a good deal. The bakery is actually located in Rosemead, so I'm really happy I can buy them here. Definitely planning to repurchase!

This review is only regarding their Almond Senbei…read more Whenever I go to H Mart in Arcadia, I also pick up a package of Peniel Bakery's Almond Senbei. I purchased something that looked like Almond Senbei at a different bakery. They called it Almond Brittle. Indeed it was like a brittle. It was not teeth friendly. On the other hand, Peniel Bakery's almond senbei is thin and very easy to bite into. My husband usually does not want to taste my items from Asian stores or bakeries. This time he asked if he could have a piece. I thought to myself. Oh no! Why? I only purchased one package, and I know that once you have one piece you'll definitely have another. I was correct. He ate numerous pieces. Once my friend saw my husband say that he liked the Almond Senbei, she also tried a piece. She's also someone that usually says no thank you, whenever I ask her if she wants to try something that I'm eating. I know that sharing is caring. I would have purchased 3 packages, if I knew that I would be sharing MY Almond Senbei. LOL Now that I read reviews about their mochi, I'll definitely be purchasing that in my next visit to H Mart.

So I've been buying these almond senbei/cookies for awhile at my local Hmart now and can say they…read moreare my favorite. Perfectly crispy and flavorful. Pairs perfectly with coffee or tea. They taste fresh and have a decent shelf life....not that they ever last more than 2 days at my house. 10/10 recommend.

Food: love the options they have. i don't not like anything so far…read more Service: most recent visit was great. I appreciate the friendly service & info on different flavor options Ambiance: clean & bright. love the wall of mello jars they have up now. so pretty and fun. side notes: durian option, i personally that they have this, would like for a bit more meaty and more durian. newer flavor is Dubai Chocolate SO YUMMY but got really sweet for me especially when it became a bit warmer. For point of reference I don't usually eat lots of sweet and sugar, milk tea is always 50% sugar. Starbucks caramel macchiato is good for me at half the syrup. Osmanthus option, interesting. it's light and refreshing. this is also vegan and non-dairy. good to try but i don't think i'll get it again. don't hate it, just not a top of the list option for me.

They are in a really small plaza with options to park in the plaza or street parking nearby. The interior was quaint with a few small tables. Staff here was very friendly and efficient. I came a bit close to closing time and I felt guilty but I was in the area and really wanted a sweet treat for the drive home. They were really friendly and quick with my order. I had the Smashed Avocado and Durian ($8.75) which is the #1 item on their signature list. I took it on the road because I really didn't want to keep them pass closing. Love love love! Just as delicious as I remembered it. The really use quality ingredients because durian is a sensitive ingredient. If they don't use good ones it can get sus. The durian is creamy and custard-like at the base with some jelly bites for texture, then there's a blend of sweet milk of some kind, and then topped with the avocado blend. Yum! Perfection! One of my favorite desserts of all times. I will definitely come back when I'm in the area.
