Sweet Camarosa Strawberries in Larchmont

Sweet Camarosa Strawberries – plant patent filed for this cultivar in 1993 😉

$3 a basket, $7 for 3 baskets

Duck Confit from Saveurs

Meredith’s hands showing off their Duck Confit, arguably Saveurs’ most popular item

It’s frozen and vacuum-sealed. Ingredients: Duck legs, thyme, salt, white pepper.

Very convenient. Just bake for 20 minutes and voila! You have confit de canard ready.

 

Chocolate Volcano - flourless

And I don’t remember the name, but these are like chocolate volcanoes — flourless!

Better to reheat in the oven than to microwave, according to Meredith of Saveurs.

 

Fresh Fish and Seafood at Farmers Market

Wild king salmon, unshelled shrimp, Chilean seabass, ahi sashimi, fatty sword, clams, oysters, bay scallops, diver scallops… much, much more!

 

Smoked Fish - no preservatives!

The spot of orange behind the flowers is Jim Barkley of ThinKrisps fame.

Grillmasters LA and Robertino's Cucina

Grill Masters brings the chicken rotisserie truck to the Farmers Market.

Robertino Cucina of La Luna fame sells empanadas and tiramisu, inter alia.
