    Great outdoor market every Saturday only. I make it a point to s Visit this market every chance I get. Over the years it just gets crowded due to its popularity with the locals and foreigners alike. Bring cash, some vendors do accept credit.

    There are two outdoors farmer's market in the area. Legaspi Village which occured on Sundays and this one, Salcedo Village Market that occurs on Saturdays. I love both these markets equally as each provides a little something the other does not. For me, I go to the Sunday Salcedo Market for freshly cooked breakfast and lunch food. For my needs there isn't much going on as far as fresh produce or small locally made knick knacks which is just fine. I'm really going for the ambiance, people watching opportunity, in a space that is a little larger and more widespread. I think the number of vendors here is larger than Legaspi, but again I come here for different reasons. Makati needs more outdoor markets! Support local.

    There's something special about the Salcedo Market that keys me coming back. As Rafik's says, it's definitely habit forming. Whether it's the community feel, or the different aromas and flavours around, I look forward to the Salcedo Market every week. I love the culture and community here. It's a warm gathering, with many familiar faces and smiles. The Salcedo Market features more than 50 vendors, and everyone who comes here has there own favorites to come back to. A lot of the food here is made fresh and most are homemade and heirloom recipes. There are cuisines from all over the world, so you can have a taste of different international flavors as well as local delicacies. Salcedo Market is a place where locals and visitors can both enjoy a thriving community gathering, all with the common passion for good food and good vibes.

    It's a must go place if I have friends visiting Manila. For myself, you will definitely see me there if I'm in town. No need to explain more, fresh vegetable, fruits, ginger beer, BBQ,.... you can find everything fresh here, but, with a expatriât price for foreigner......... Great place to hang our every Saturday in Makati!

    Its like the counterpart of Mercato in BGC. Unlike Mercato, Salcedo Market opens at 6 AM in the morning and on Saturdays only. The place is situated in a park that makes it a place to bring your kids. I suggest you to here at 6AM so that you can get a headstart on checking all the products of the shops before it gets crowded. There's taho, burgers, shakes, lobster samdwiches, chinese cuisine you name it they have it. I recommend the lobster sandwich its at the center of the market place. Monster Burger was a good buy too and try the lamb shawarma. You can buy water at the upper left of the place where the event coordinators sit.

    I lived in Makati 8 years ago and was there for two years. And then I moved to Quezon City. And then to Paranaque. But one thing remained consistent, my love for Salcedo Community Market. I've been there going there since they started out 8 years ago. I used to bring all my officemates who had work on weekends there for lunch. I've bought from all vendors in the area and love each of their wares and food. Whether I'm walking to the weekend market for 5 minutes or driving an hour to get there, I make sure I visit at least once month. There's a part where they sell seafood and fresh fruits and vegetables. They have some that are organic and I really love buying from those. This is also a great place to find unique food that you won't find in malls or in restaurants -- including fresh carabao's milk, authentic Italian lasagna, dulong spread, pritson and even fried frog's legs. Among my favorite sellers are the Batangas people near the end of the row by the entry area, they sell the best suman and some sinaing delicacies (these are steamed fish in banana leaves. Their suman is always fresh and delicious. I also love Ginang Bukid, this homebaker has been my go-to people for Chocolate Mousse -- it has always been and will always be my favorite and my potluck staple. Get the one in regular versus the black & white if you're trying it for the first time. There are really so many vendors I can talk about all day, but my best tips is for you to go there to experience it for yourself.

    Right smack in the middle of Salcedo Village's Jaime Valelasquez park comes this food Market every Saturday, from 7am-2pm. A good selection of food items, you'd definitely have a hearty breakfast and a full tummy until you leave. To compare with other food markets, i guess the Salcedo Market has more exotic and more high end food selections. Half of the marketplace is dedicated to food stalls while half for raw items and fresh vegetables. Tables are available if you want to dine in, with friendly stall owners. You can also get free tastes to help you decide. A good option for a lazy Saturday weekend with friends or family. You might even get to see a famous celebrity or two just like we did.

    Where to get the most amazing shawarma ever.

    Makati may seem like a bit of a drive from Parañaque, especially on a weekend morning when you should be sleeping in, but Salcedo Market is worth the travel. I try to go once or twice a month for all the awesome things sold there. Most of the stalls here focus on food. Whether it's fresh seafood or produce, or finely cooked cuisine in almost any style you can think of - Indian, Thai, Filipino, Brazilian, you name it. After satisfying my cravings for fresh buko juice and the best damn wagyu shawarma in the world (usually found at the front of the park near the drop off point, fyi), I usually hunt down the stall that sells my favorite crispy catfish salad and samosas to take those home. It's also a great place to find beautiful orchids and local crafts. Visiting the market is always a treat, due to the wide and colorful variety of pop up shops. Recommended for anyone who wants to see how cultures can mingle and co-exist in Manila.

    A great stall to buy plants and local handcraft.

    One of the best things about living in Salcedo Village is that every saturday the Jaime Velasquez Park gives place to the Salcedo Community Market. Since it's set just in front of my condo, I'm a loyal customer. I consider it the perfect place to buy all kinds of organic products directly from the producers. On the various tents you can find fish, vegetables, greens, flowers, honey, detox juices, artisanal ginger beer, snacks, roustic placemats and so on. Everything here has a local taste of the Philippines. It's so picturesque that I go there with all my friends who come to visit me in Manila. I've been there several times and never got tired of the place! I suggest having lunch at the market. There's a stall that seels a great wagyu beef shawarma and another one where you can find a wonderful eggplant lasagna. My favourite stall, however, is the Brazilian Bakery! I almost had a heart-attack when I saw a Brazilian flag there in the market. Oh my God! I was missing so much my country's typical food and I would never expect to find "pão de queijo" and "coxinhas" here in Manila, since they're popular street food snacks in Brazil. So now I have my place of resistance: everytime I miss my country, I go there to eat! Try also the brigadeiro, our chocolate popular candy. Just amazing!

    Although I frequent the Legazpi Sunday Market, I walked across Ayala to Salcedo village one weekend to try out the Salcedo Saturday Market. I saw a lot of the same vendors in present in both the Salcedo and Legazpi weekend markets, but I noticed the Salcedo Market is a bit more for the foodie than its Legazpi counterpart, so there's less of the trinkets and cosmetics and artsy stuff, and more food, food, food. Some of my favorites are Auntie May's salpicao, Pizza Morena's pepperoni and hot honey pizza (the tomato sauce is so yummy here, it tastes sweet!), and the caramel apples of Bad Apple. If you'd rather cook your own food, the market is also a good place to get fresh ingredients, from meats to sauces and seasonings to vegetables. I went there in the heat of summer, so even if I made a beeline for the fruit shakes, the shakes were long gone. They sold out early in the day. :( There's more space to walk around in the Salcedo Market than the Legazpi Market, but a lot less shade. The general dining area is by the park, and walking off the lunch/merienda calories with a leisurely stroll around the park is quite relaxing. The Salcedo Market is at the Jaime C. Velasquez Park every Saturdays. Sometimes, events held at the park (like Art in the Park, or perhaps a musical performance) will coincide with the market, making it doubly interesting.

Anyway, this project is an initiative of the local government in promotion of employee benefits. To keep it simple, Jolly-Jeeps are basically karenderia stands made out of the stainless jeepney steel that I was talking about. I like it cause it's an extremely cheap alternative to what you'll typically see around Makati. In fact, I'm glad these things exist because I'm no longer restricted to eating at fast food restaurants considering my limited budget. Most Jolly-Jeeps have similar menus. I've only ever tasted the ones I found along Rada Street so I can't say if there's a massive difference between the Jolly-Jeeps there and those in other places. Anyway, most of the things you'll see in these things are typically Pinoy, Longganisa, sisig, bananacue, kamotecue, and so much more.

These almost space-age looking capsules of convenience line the major avenues of villages Salcedo and Legazpi, with outlets in select streets in and around Makati CBD. They may look uniform, but don't let the Demolition Man grey monotone fool you: these are individual merchants with their own strengths and surprises in store. Most jolly jeeps offer the standards: pancit, lugaw, a couple of ulams with rice, and the omnipresent pinoy spaghetti. Where each jolly jeep differs is in flavor. If you're a fan of banana cue or turon, in particular, there is a wide range in quality and price (and these aren't always directly proportional) so experiment until you find the flavors you like. If you're in the mood for sisig, head on over to the jolly jeep fronting the 711 on Rada--but make sure to get there before the lunch time crush.

There's a French food stall which is pricey. There is a stall selling pad Thai but i didn't find it good. At times I've encountered live entertainment from local and at one time a Russian singer too! The fresh seafood selection is very nice and you can bargain which is fun! I bought a native chicken once and regretted it as after cooking it I found out the meat is almost non existent and whatever meat there was was incredibly rubbery! I was told to use a pressure cooker. Perhaps. Though I'll stick to normal chicken, maybe organic. Seating can be very limited but if you wait around patiently you'll get one eventually. I'm not that type so I go to the park just a few steps away and you can always easily find a spot to eat there. You can feed the cats too (cats are everywhere in Makati for some reason!) Bottom line- this place is amazing! PS: only on mornings though can you enjoy this place. So plan on it! You won't regret it.

I personally don't like isaw very much, and I have already shifted to my veg diet when I came to UP, but my friends swear by the quality of the isaw sold by Mang Larry's. A friend remarked that he wouldn't even touch any other isaw, unless he is sure that utter care was taken by the vendor in cleaning the innards. They say that the stuff sold by Mang Larry's taste fresh and clean, and free from that undesirable taste of chicken poop that any amateur isaw vendor wouldn't think of cleaning out thoroughly. Anyway, I heard Mang Larry was able to send his kids to college because of his trade, to which I say, well done! Excellent job, hardworking and charismatic Mang Larry!
