my oh my how times have changed. i first went to this market years ago and it was so rinky-dink, i was embarassed for a city the size of phoenix to have such a sad farmers market. so i walked across the street and ate at this place called Matt's Big Breakfast.
fast forward to today. had the day off so i figured i'd head downtown to check out "the hood" since all i ever really do is confine myself to my little 2 sq mile home. i couldn't have been more surprised to come upon the phoenix farmers market! man what a nice change. it is so much bigger! i had to stop and look around. there were so many more tents and vendors...i was muy impressed. even got to pick up a few beautiful heirloom tomatoes....so juicy and red, i washed them and bit into them right there on the spot!
good going for downtown farmers markets. i have to say matt's is still there but i hear now it's like a 2 hour wait? are you kidding me? for breakfast? it's eggs, bread, and pancakes for crying out loud...seriously folks?
