| - Delta Air Lines says this farmer's market is the 8th best in the world. If DAL says it's true, it must be true. But seriously, this farmer's market is pretty awesome. Though I could do without the guy trying to sing the same song for money every time.
As a visitor to Madison, we knew we wanted to try this place out. The farmer's market goes around the entire capital building, and there are countless stands full of fresh fruit and vegetables, baked goods, sausage and cheese. Of course, there were always the most crowds around the cheese stands. And why not - we had a bag of cheese curds, but the best thing ever was fried garlic cheese. It was like eating garlic bread without the bread - soooo good.
After a while though, you basically see the same fruits and veggies, just being sold by different vendors. I will say this, get there early, because when we got there around 11:30 or so, the good selection of baked goods was already declining.
I was tempted to eat everything - the giant 1 foot donuts in particular looked delicious. Also, I absolutely love people watching there, and it's fun to buy a couple things to eat and sit on the grass and watch all the people walk by.
I almost forgot - this place was also memorable for when I accidentally slightly nudged this older gentleman and quickly apologized. He literally wobbled to and fro a few times before catching himself, but then wobbled again and almost toppled over. I was horrified at what could have been.
