In my opinion, Newark Farmers' Market (at Newpark Mall) slightly triumphs Irvington Farmers' Market…read moredue to: - number of vendors - variety of vendors - larger food selection This market presumably "stops" at 2pm with discounts presumably starting at 1250pm (or sooner). I feel the service is fairly standard across the board (of what you would expect at farmer markets and festivals). But is largely more dependent on EBT and cash. You can park at the post office, there's a small lot at the bay fair, street parking, and some folks park at the huge plaza...

Enter his…read moreFarm Market from SOUTHBOUND Alvarado-Niles, shortly before the bridge (which is getting replaced) up over BART. It is just after you pass Osprey. You have to slow down or you could miss his driveway. My wife thinks Ramirez is great. Sadly, the 882 rental units will boot out the last farm in Fremont. Ramirez says he will move to Union City. As of Sept. 29 Ramirez appears to be well on the way to gone. Ramirez is now operating in Union City; we bought some lovely Hatch peppers and green beans. Maybe the plan for 882 units can be improved in some ways, such as by requiring individual water meters on this new construction. I attended the study meeting on Sept. 29, and it looks to me as though the density will be moderately reduced. Folks, take a look at my attached views of Mission Peak from Litchfield Ave. on the north. One is colored as the impressionist Monet would paint it. Now, it's time to hit the "cool" button, n'est-ce pas?

This was my first time ever at this particular farmers market and I was surprised when I pulled up…read moreto see so many tents!! I decided to track my steps and it was actually a quarter mile in an oval shape. One and they had an information booth as well as a live band, at the other oval end they had some volunteers making/designing your own reusable bag- such a cute way to give back to the community. Apparently this farmers market is going plastic free soon! All defenders seem to have their own price margins and one vendor was selling each bundle of herbs for a dollar. Sadly, she was all out of basil, but had a bunch of mint, lemon leaves, and tarragon or some other parsley type leaf that I've smelled before, but never have tried to cook with. Most thunders had prices by the pound, some vendors had pre-bagged vegetables for five dollars. I've been to the San Jose farmers market and they have basically the same vendors, but their bags are three dollars a bag instead of five. A handful of the vendors here did state they were California certified Organic or USDA Organic, but it didn't seem like they washed their fruit off after they picked it. Lol just interesting to me on the presentation since their root vegetables had mud on them. I'm sure they taste good but presentation means a lot to me. Hee Nevertheless, I bought a handful of different vegetables and this delicious onion bread from a local Italian gentleman who actually makes pesto without nuts so that he's not free bakery and he can cater to those people with nut allergies!! It's a local vendor, so please check them out! I wouldn't mind checking out this farmers market again, but I'll probably go just before closing since I know they give better discounts then 10 o'clock on a Sunday morning. Hee

FYI: this is not a hot pot restaurant and the parking is a quick right turn before the fence…read more I came across this shop after seeing reviews and photos of the meat quality. Yummy Fresh in Fremont is a hidden gem that offers restaurant-quality hot pot meats and ingredients at a fraction of the price. The best part is that there's no tipping like at restaurants, making it even more affordable. Everything is fresh, well-packaged, and perfect for a hot pot night at home. Highly recommend for anyone who loves quality without the restaurant pricing. The owner is friendly and knows a lot about meat quality. Just ask him, and he will help you pick out options. There are both hot pot meats and grilling meats available. The quality of the meats are really good, and I know my meat as an avid BBQ and hot pot lover. There are also snacks, drinks, hot pot seasing, some veggies, and a lot of other things to choose from. It's a great idea with no lines, no tips-- just do it at home with the best quality meat. My selection were the wagyu meats, lamb, and some BBQ galbi.

Bakery Review…read more Hands-down, the best bakery place in Fremont actually I would stay in the Bay Area. You must work with Sebastian. He is wonderful. He gets your vision and makes the cake the way you want to come out. The cakes are delicious and he makes them fresh and he makes them look so pretty. This reviews actually overdue. I got my son's wedding cake from them and it was the most delicious cake ever and I also got the engagement cake for my daughter from Sebastian. He is wonderful person. I love the way he makes her cakes and I just got one cake yesterday for my daughter's birthday and she loved it so you must try cakes from this place and have Sebastian turn it into a beautiful piece of art. I cannot even talk about prices. Their prices are so good. I priced the wedding Cake at every other Bakers and as soon as you tell them, the wedding price is 10 times more these people do not raise their prices. It is what it is and the quality and the workmanship of the cake is wonderful.

The workers weren't too friendly and you're not able to put any of the garnishes (guacamole, salsa, etc) on the side.

Absolute Lifesavers & New Favorite Caterer…read more When our original caterer bailed at the last minute, I reached out to my go to spot... this incredible Mexican restaurant stepped in and single-handedly saved our entire corporate event. Not only did they take on the job with almost no notice, they delivered far beyond what we expected -- and we ended up with record turnout because of how well everything came together. The food? Beyond perfect. Every dish was fresh, vibrant, and packed with authentic flavor. Guests kept coming back for seconds (and thirds), and we received nonstop compliments all night. The communication? Flawless. From the moment we reached out, they were responsive, organized, and completely on top of every detail at every turn.. before, during, and after the event. It felt like working with a team that genuinely cares. They've catered massive corporate events for companies like Google, Facebook, and other major Bay Area organizations, and you can absolutely see why. But what really impressed me is that even outside the big corporate world, they're just as warm, attentive, and delightful on an individual level. Worth every single penny. The quality is consistently top-tier, and their professionalism is unmatched. Highly, highly recommend -- they've earned a permanent spot at the top of our vendor list!

I frequent this Safeway about once a month when there is a good deal to take advantage of so I came…read moreto this location today to pickup 4 corns for $1 and Beef Chuck flanken ribs for $6.99/lb. I have come for the ribs deal in the past but every time, they have either run out or what's left is big strips of fat on bones. I came to the meat department and was 2nd in line for the butcher. The first person was waiting for the butcher to finish slicing the flanken ribs so she could choose the packages she wanted. Once the butcher finished and put the ribs in the open fridge, she chose what she wanted and left the rest that had little meat and mostly fat. I decided to go back to the butcher and wait when shortly after, an employee approached me with the name tag "Noel". He asked if I needed help and I told him I was waiting for the butcher so I could ask them to slice up some more ribs. Noel looked at where the leftover ribs were and had a condescending tone and said to me, "there are no more in the fridge?" I explained that I was waiting for the butcher to come back because I didn't want just fat and bones. He snarkily said "They all have fat, they are chuck, what do you expect? Well, they are at lunch, you will have to wait a while". I had my 4 year old daughter with me and I said "I have time, I will wait". He then went on to do whatever work he needed to do, checking temps of the frozen section and fridges with a thermometer while I waited there. He went to the back and I could hear him talking about me to the butcher and I could hear his abhorrent tone about me waiting for a better quality cut. 10 min later he goes to the meat rack in the back and uses the meat wrapping machine to wrap some more ribs that were already cut and in trays. He puts them on a tray and puts the tray on the butcher window and condescendingly repeats himself "They all have fat, they are chuck." I wanted to tell him about my experience in the past and that since I had time today I didn't mind waiting, but my 4 year old was there and I just wanted to pick up the groceries and take her home. As I was picking the ones I wanted, he again gave me attitude and said "You know it's 2 max as the limit." I said "Ok, I got it.", He said with an angry face "What?" So I said it louder, "Yes, I got it". Little did he know, my wife also has an account so I used her number since she was at work and was unable to be present. But I didn't feel like he was worthy of an explanation to begin with. I had to bite my tongue multiple times while he made sarcastic, snarky, condescending comments to me, and about me to his butcher, then at me again. If I didn't have my daughter with me, I would have been more vocal, but in this situation I decided to put my complaint online. In summary, I am local and I used to frequent this grocery store, but after Noel's demeanor, I will not be coming back. I will take my business elsewhere and will recommend my friends to not come to this location. If Noel is at a job to provide service to the public, he shouldn't be. He should be an overnight stocker where he doesn't deal with people because he has no people skills. His sarcastic remarks and condescension was behavior that I was taken aback by, and it was the first time that I EVER had this type of experience in a grocery store, and I'm 42 years old. I will be posting this on Google and Yelp as well. I'm sure he will see this post and hopefully he can rethink about his behavior and learn from it, and be better because of it.
