It was not a particularly busy day for the farmers market but we had a nice time strolling along and seeing the variety of produce, handmade pasta, baked goods, and other items for sale! We stopped by one booth for a sample which had packaged Indian curries that can be easily boiled as a meal for one. At $10 we found them rather steep, but quite tasty! There was also a dumpling booth that seemed quite popular. This is a nice farmers market perfect for a relaxed stroll on a Saturday! Very family-friendly and a nice mix of local Houston finds.

There's tons of free parking just around the corner in the large onsite parking garage. The market itself is well attended by farmers, bakers, butchers, artisans, plant enthusiasts, and the community. I've been to this market several times now and am constantly impressed with the wide variety of options. Some local favorites include the fresh farmer's produce, sourdough bread vendors, fresh flower vendors, vegan options (shout out to Prophecy Foods with amazing vegan cheeses), and the ready to eat bites like Dumpling Haus. All of the vendors take credit cards which is convenient in case you forgot to bring cash. There's often live music and a few small tables to sit and sample your bounty and just enjoy the fresh air. While you are not going to find the cheapest bargain here, it feels good to help support small businesses, take part in a community activity, and score some healthy foods for you and your family. Definitely worth a visit!

There are plenty of parking in the neighborhood and signs everywhere to tell you where to park. There are many vendors from fresh produce, fruits, flowers, baked goods, desserts, meat, and specialty items. Many great options to choose from. Everyone is always friendly and welcoming. They also have live music and places to sit and enjoy. There's a lot of shade so it doesn't get too hot as you walk around. It's one of my favorite farmers market in town.

Only open on Saturdays from 9 am to 1 pm, this market several produce stands as well as some for home goods (candles, leather items, jewelry, dog bandanas + treats, knife sharpening). One can stock up on eggs, microgreens, fresh pastas, hummus/spreads, jams, meats, and even seafood here. For eats, acai bowls, leige waffles, bakeries, cookies (!!), tacos, empanadas, and refreshing pops were some nibbles available. There's a playground with some tables in the middle to sit down. There's a map at the entrance, but it's more fun to amble around and browse! A parking lot is available, but most people were parking in the neighborhoods (as directed by the signs). Most vendors took Apple Pay or Venmo, but bring cash just in case. Come early-- I went around 9:30 am, and some of the home bakeries were sold out of their popular goods!

When I got home and ate them I about died. They were so GOOD! Well, I got the 411 on their location and headed over to La Ideal Bakery to pick up some more for myself. Edgar told me they were 70 cents each, but I thought he must have been mistaken, because they were too yummy and huge for that price. Maybe he had time traveled back to 1980? Well, I arrived that La Ideal before heading to dinner on Washington Ave. The lady at the counter was putting more items out for the evening. She was happy to help and showed me the different items in the cabinets. She was a bit used-car-salesmen trying to sell me everything under the sun. I actually ended up with 12 of the banana flavored pineapple filled muffins. They are so damn good. I also picked up 2 huge apple turnovers and 2 huge gingerbread things (they aren't cookies or muffins, I really don't know what they are besides dense bread). All 16 items for $11. Crazy! She even put them in a lovely box. They are open until 9:00 pm every day of the week! I kind of wish she hadn't told me because now I'll be there far too often. If you LOVE baked goods or even just like them a little, head over to this place. It's totally a hole in the wall bakery and they share space with a tax preparation business (there is a huge opening in the wall between them) so the whole set up is kind of strange. But, it is totally worth it for these baked goods. In addition to what I got, there were several items filled with cheese, pumpkin empanadas, etc... They have a wide selection. I wish I had had more time to browse, but friends were waiting on me for dinner. I will be back... over and over and over.

After having busted my Ultimo Taco Truck cherry on a sunny, cool Saturday, I was hankering for some more Latin goodness. The place is your standard panaderia set-up: aluminum platters and plastic tongs by the door, glass-front wooden cases showcasing the goods, and paper signs advocating the use of the tongs (and not your hands). A small refrigerated case sits in the middle with some custard-based items, primarily flan. After discovering an item called Pan Colombiano (crescent shaped pastry filled with sweetened cream cheese - sometimes with some coconut added), I've been frequently dreaming of a repeat encounter. This bakery does have these items but sans the coconut - I bought 3 of them at 80 cents each. An item that looked like a wider flatter muffin caught my eye and I asked the lady what it was; she said it was banana bread filled with pineapple. Upon the mention of pineapple (I am a pineapple freak, among other things.), I was sold and took one. This item costs 70 cents. Scrumptious! Carbs and I have an unhealthy co-dependency - at this point, I hurried to pay and leave before I loaded that tray with more "carb crack". Cash only - the total came to $3.10 and I tore into one of the pan Colombianos in the car. After that, I tore off a little sliver of the muffin and it was moist and fruity: a delicious combination and I hadn't gotten to its golden pineapple core. In the privacy of my home, I made like a "Cookie Monster" and ate the balance of that first crescent. After dinner, I ate a second one. The muffin did not survive the night since I ate it before bed. Did I mention it is "carb crack"? If you're anywhere near the busy Heights Kroger, throw a few bucks to this local business and satisfy your own baked good cravings.

Plenty of street parking because it's on a residential street and there's coffee nearby. There's an indoor area to sit a small table outside. Lots of people were coming in and out. Owner is super friendly and yes, they take Apple Pay. Can't wait to try more items!

Additionally, there are food trucks a'plenty. AND... there's live music. I'm lucky enough to work from home, but you downtown "deskies" can appreciate the fresh air, music, vitamin D and good eats.
