I like finding one new thing to try at the market; last week I bought goat cheese and some edamame (for P50 for a half kilo it was a good bargain). But my favorites are Vargas butter cake, new houseplants at one of the stalls, picking up a supply of Virgin Coconut Oil at Marisa’s, coffee, and some indian food at Kashmir, plus a container of tabbouleh at the french food stall (good pate there too). I was sad to see that the duhats are out of season already (I only had one duhat binge this year!!), but the lychees look pretty good.
Food, glorious food! See you on the 17th!

Gigi, omigod, that list is so anal…and I can imagine you doing your rounds! Heehee. Funny how we develop our favorites and go about our days acquiring food…

My favorite time to go to Organic Market is 9am — right when the vendors (particularly Mr. Budbud Kabog Carl) have settled in and have change to give. My favorite combo breakfast is the lean and tender chicken teriyaki barbecue and Johanna’s Bacolod lumpiang ubod and for take home, lots of greens from Gourmet Cafe and a stash of to-die for Masuki Mami asado siopao (the mami is over-rated — flat-tasting broth, tasteless noodles).

Larees, yes it is open till after lunch though most of the good stuff is gone by then. I think it’s okay until 2pm…but for the anniversary on the 17th I think it is open until 4 pm. Try to get there earlier if you can and enjoy!

Hi Market Man! I’m an avid reader of your blog; it’s very informative. I just want to ask if the Salcedo Market is opne til after lunch? I’m planning to go this Saturday. Thanks!

Well what do you know? I thought the featured artwork will be one of the arts on exhibit! One could assume that it was done by another famous artist, but then again, the emergence of talented young people has been often ignored.
