    These days, I'm making a habit of going to Forts Ferry Farms' pop up markets…read more I was introduced to a new-to-me herb, cilantro-like, from Peru. It is even more punchy than cilantro. I don't remember the name of it. Use sparingly. Heirloom tomatoes - I bought a flat of them so I made gazpacho and a fresh tomato sauce (using Marcella Hazan's recipe). I also ate some raw - still warm with a little salt. Tomatoes define the taste of summer. Peaches - this is the first year FFF is offering their own peaches. I don't know what kind of peach it is. It is smaller, the flesh more delicate with a more pronounced flavor. The memoir, Epitaph for a Peach, by David Mas Matsumoto, came to mind when I tasted it. This peach wasn't grown to be hearty and built to withstand the rigors of transport, it was grown to be flavorful; to be eaten and savored. I'm so glad FFF is here to remind us how produce should taste. I'd almost forgotten.

    I knew nothing about this place when my wife suggested for a surprise lunch on a Saturday…read moreafternoon, and we had to rush over as they have limited hours. It was cold and raining outside and I was happy to get out of it and relax. Sadly, I quickly found out her surprise involved eating outside under a tent in the cold and rain on a November day. Sigh. At least they had blankets on the benches. We ordered in the far tent and the menu board was both helpful (it listed everything in each entree, including onions) and annoying (it indicated no substitutions were allowed, including onions). Not to be deterred, I picked the pepperoni pizza with hot honey, basil and Calabrian chili peppers. My wife ordered the Margherita pizza. Both were ready in about 15 minutes, but upon delivery to our table it became clear that a couple of things were off. First, my wife's pizza was cold and mine was pipping hot. Second, mine had so much basil- which in places was left in 2-3 leaf bunches- that perhaps they just cleaned out the pantry for the last order of the day. The crust in spots were burned, but I could live with that. However, it was so floppy that it couldn't be picked up under any condition. Everything but the outer inch of crust was like a thin wet tortilla. And their plastic cutlery wasn't up to the challenge, ripping the pizza toppings off and turning my pizza into a casserole. That being said, the flavors were wonderful on my pizza. The hot honey made for a really tasty flavor balance, and the copious amounts of curling pepperoni were a nice change of pace from the cheap stuff. The peppers were good too, and I wish I could source some locally. My wife's pizza was okay, though the whole mozzarella clumps reminded of dollops of Ricotta and they were very cold as if they were added after baking. Odd. I don't mind paying for expensive pizza if it is good. I am also not a pizza snob and will gladly eat subpar pizza. But, to overpay ($26 for mine alone) for pizza that is just a mess in a cardboard box rubs me the wrong way. The same goes for buying ($24) a cold pizza. The dessert we ordered was a Paris-Brest, and being a choux fan I absolutely loved it. Delicious with hints of coffee, almonds, nuts, and some flavorings I couldn't place, I would quickly come back here just for that. As for their pizza, I just don't know. On a nice pleasant day it would be fun, but too many mistakes on our pizzas makes me leery of ordering them again for those prices.

    This Farmers Market is a hidden gem! All of the vendors are super friendly, the produce is great,…read morethe pastries from Made by Linda are the best I've ever had! The coolest thing about this market is the location though, It's in a covered but open air building so you get the breeze and the outside air without getting a sunburn or getting rained on if the weather is bad. The parking is also in a lot right next to the market so you don't have to worry about street parking blocks away like you would at the Troy Market.

    Wow! This is a great farmer's market. I'm not sure if the produce is quite as good as the Troy…read moreplace, but I like the real salt-of-the earth atmosphere here. During the week, it's wholesale only, but on Saturdays they open it up for retail to the public. This doesn't seem to be the place for the academic-type farmers, if you know what I mean. You know, the Michael Pollan reading ones who can recite an entire thesis on the definitions of organic. I love those people too, but most of the farmers here are of a different variety. The ones I saw today are the farmers who have been doing it forever, and who haven't bothered to scrub the soil out of their finger nails before coming to hawk their wares. When I went today, there weren't a whole lot of fruits and veggies, but there were a ton of plants. The plants alone were definitely worth the trip. I restrained myself and only purchased a nice rosemary plant. A great farm near my mother's house - Stanton's - also had a gorgeous array of strawberries. There's nothing like a good early June strawberry. They're smaller than those hulking California ones but the taste is a thousand times better. At 5.75 for a quart, it might seem a bit pricey but I think the quality makes it worth the price. There are also several little craft stands, along with vendors selling nut butters, jams and the like. Oh, and they take credit cards. I can't wait to come back when it's full-on summer.

    Yes, it's only taken us about 5 years to make it, but we finally got to see what the fuss was all…read moreabout! Of course, by early November the outdoor market has moved indoors and we have little idea what the waterfront outdoor market looks like, but I've gotta say I'm impressed. I'm impressed with the organisation of the so many vendors in different corners of the two-floor space, and the variety and quality of the goodies available. Pretty much all cooked foods were upstairs with tables and chairs dotted amongst vendors, and the offerings ranged from West African and Caribbean American to dumplings, crepes, and empanadas. There was a "makers" room with clothing, jewlery, pottery, and other knickknacks, and produce, Belgian sugar waffles, and dried flower arrangements lined the middle section of the ground level. Probably the biggest room was in the back corner across from the 'booze' section, and this is where we see the dairy, dips, honey, peanut butter, gourds, pickles, and lots of baked goods, some of which we couldn't resist. We ended up with a small haul from Golden Blend Bakehouse, Our Daily Bread, and The Placid Baker. I'm be sure to follow up on how the baked goods go but the farmers market was impressive and I'm glad this has become a real landmark in the Capital Region. Parking is available among the street (mostly metred) and near the waterfront. We'll be back.

They have so many options for organic veggies and our very favorite farmer, Happenchance Farm. It's definitely the best market around with a wide variety of fresh foods including Jamaican, Mexican, Greek, American, sweet, savory, breakfast, lunch, you name it! There are homemade bag vendors, and jewelry vendors, and spirit vendors, and honey vendors, and coffee vendors, and cheese vendors, and grass-fed meat vendors! The list goes on! So many great choices! Spend an hour or spend 4 hours! You won't be disappointed.

    Since I work near the Empire State Plaza I go by this every week. Usually it is on Wednesdays, but…read moreoccasionally it seems like some of the vendors also come on Fridays. During the nicer weather it is outside, but when it gets cold they move indoors. During the summer and fall there are several vendors with fresh produce, flowers, breads, other baked goods, cheeses, honey, beer, pickles, and various other things to tempt you. They aren't priced cheap but the prices are the same here as they are at other farmers' markets in the area. During the winter and early spring though it gets scarce and depressing. Many of the vendors disappear, very little produce is available except apples, and the pleasure of walking outdoors in the sun is replaced with the frustration of fighting the crowds indoors who mindless walk around the plaza between agency buildings and the capitol. The four stars is for May-October, and I would give 2 stars for the remainder of the year.

The market runs outdoors from May through October, Wednesdays and Fridays and the rest of the year on Wednesdays down on the concourse. There's a pretty good variety of vendors, Our Daily Bread from Chatham, Healthway Farms from Highland, R&G cheese from Cohoes and a bunch of others. There's even a beer guy now, Ben's Beer, that will fill a growler for you. If you work downtown and want some good fresh stuff, this is the place to go.

The prices for produce are high and the organization of the aisles baffles me. This time I had a plan: a short list of specific needs from the Asian Market on Central which I hoped I could find here instead. But daikon was too expensive, a tub of peeled garlic was not in sight and I did not have the patience to search for wheat starch or Pantai brand fish sauce. All that said, it's still a four star experience. First for the experience of seeing many Muslim families shopping together on a Friday, and particularly the happy customers waiting at the busy halal butcher when their orders are delivered. Second for the depth of product which challenges the casual shopper but lets me know this would be a good source for a very specific product, like an obscure fruit or vegetable or one of the dozens of middle eastern flatbreads on offer. The labneh section alone deserves an award for brand diversity. Like it or not, I know I'll be back and am glad we have Farmer's Indian Market in our community.
