We stopped by the Carmel Valley Farmer's Market and were excited to see the produce stands. I…read morestumbled upon the Cheese Wiz and of course had to try the specialty imported cheese. The vendor was so kind in giving us a variety of cheeses to try and we were too tempted not to get anything. We picked up 1/2 lb each of the raclette and truffle gouda. The cheese is on the pricier side but loved the flavors and the truffle gouda is one of the best truffle cheese I've had! So excited to eat the raclette on a baguette and make some fancy mac & cheese with the truffle gouda. The food trucks are great as well (definitely get Big Sur Taco) and overall just such a nice stop if you're in the area on a Sunday!

With so many other farmers markets in the country and Santa Cruz County too Marina is not my go too or favorite. Two of the vegetable vendors couldn't break a fifty. So I just moved on. Super majority of food vendors are serving Mexican food which is great...if that's what you want. No diversity. I get it, it's not about me, I'm sure many count on this market. Last words...it's there.

Ambiance - it's at the Del Monte Shopping Center parking lot. A mall. The only mall for miles and miles. (Carmel doesn't count. Maybe Seaside/Sand City is getting bigger and Salinas is a world apart) There are others such as the one in downtown Monterey à la Alvarado Street but this looks to be the one in the mall parking lot. Luckily this mall isn't full the majority of the time (if ever?) because the parking lot is enormous and provides enough space for vendors. Little pricey for a farmers market. However, I did end up purchasing some salmon fresh off the boat, brought it home and cooked it that evening. ~$30 per pound so like I said, a little pricey. But dang it was good. The "Del Monte Market" location and the "Monterey" market are the same place according to the website. The parking lot of the mall. Who knows...
