So, on Saturday mornings, apparently all local farmers and growers set up shop outside and encircling the Ferry Building where you can stroll and find any type of fruit, veg, cheese, meat, or flowers you so desire.
We needed fuel up before we began. First up: coffee. Blue Bottle was highly recommended by Suzanne and Marshall - and it did not disappoint. A slight acid cut with local, foamy organic milk. It is worth the 20 minute wait as your coffee is custom-made. Grounds and all.
Next stop along the Embarcadero was a breakfast plate from Rose Pistola was farm fresh eggs, pressed prosciutto, fresh California spinach, and fontina cheese. A side of crispy potatoes. Oh, a good morning it is.
Energized, we trot through the crowd. Fresh chickens, organics, dried fruits, Indian spices, goat cheeses, wild mushrooms, tamales. Literally every table was worth stopping, observing, salivating, and then regretting we had no kitchen nor ability to take any tender items home with us.
I don't think we've had a more visually-stimulating Saturday morning.
