I've finally found a good large farmer's market in Zürich…read more The farm stands range from wow-those-beets-just-came-out-of-the-ground to Wegmanns-style Italian oranges. Each stand's rules vary --- some are very hands-on, feel-the-fruit while others are strictly ask-and-point. Quality also seems to vary a fair amount --- but prices vary less. As with most farmer's markets, cash is easiest. Besides veggies, there usually two fish trucks, a few cheese / cured meat stands, and some smaller bakery stands. There's flowers, although I still don't see how Zürich can support this many florists. Not everything I've picked up at Helvetiamarkt has worked out --- but I finally have a source for farm-fresh kale ("Federkohl").

I came here because I couldn't find anything else in District 5 and stumbled across the entire…read moreViadukt market. I picked this place out of all the other food stalls because it looked affordable at under 10 CHF, and I wanted something warm to eat instead of a cold sandwich. They have a few flavors of savory pies, including a chicken pie, beef & guinness, and a few other flavors that I can't remember off the top of my head. The pies are warmed up for you in the microwave, so the crust is not super crispy and flaky, but it's still pretty decent nonetheless. I didn't find the filling to be really exciting though - it seemed like just shredded chicken that was slightly sweet which was a little odd. I wanted there to be vegetables or something else in there. I appreciated that it was warmed at least and it fit the bill for a meal under 10 CHF, and it was a decent lunch - not super filling but it was just barely enough food. I wouldn't go out of my way to come here to eat, but if you're in the area and want food, this is a decent option. They don't take credit cards under 10 CHF, so plan accordingly.

I never appreciated the great vessel that is a pie until I met my fiancé. He is a great lover of…read moreall things that come in pie form, savory or sweet, and I stumbled upon this place while wandering with a friend and although the prices are quite high, I would say they aren't that much more expensive than NYC bc it's a specialty food and they are DELICIOUS. The chilli has a kick to it and there's also chicken, beef and veggie amongst a couple others. The crust is perfection and the filling is very flavorful. It's even great reheated at home!

And best of all, we did not have to organize anything more, everyone could get what they wanted for themselves. PREVIOUS REVIEW: A wonderful (and seemingly lucrative aka expensive) concept: situated on a show-farm with marketplace character, patrons choose various items from different stations, with a tendency to load and spend too much ... But every item was worth it. And the standard setting is to sit down at the outdoor block tables and benches and enjoy a meal in supremely relaxed atmosphere - if there weren't any wasps.

The pumpkin soup was always sought after a long hot summer days. Admission was always free and the goat petting zoo was and is still a delight. Free admission gave way to paying elevated prices for the food however this year, admission charge of 15CHF per person was added, removing the charm and rethinking purchasing items of the season at already elevated prices. The once family atmosphere has now turned into an entertainment park with the themed pumpkin sculptures loosing its magical appeal. Not every Swiss family earns a 5 digit monthly salary. A once magical place to enjoy the autumn season has now transformed into another machine of the times.
