The only way to eat these hot dogs is with all the toppings and with bacon. Everything you want in a Mexican hot dog is served hot and ready to go. The tamales are hefty; I'd compare them to the size of a California burrito, and the green tamale has a decent kick. The elote is also amazing with Valentina. The churros are hot and oily, fried right in front of you in a bit vat. Bear in mind that there are 8 churros in an order so you can share one order to two people (but you won't really want to). Eat them first as soon as they've cooled a bit for the best experience.

Walk along the Embarcadero & get a freeze on a hot day, stop by Chilanga's (the best booth there) & get my huitlacoche on. Live music, shade, delicious vendors, right across from the water. I did have a little detour from Chilanga's - while I was waiting for my spouse to park, I sat at a shady table with a woman who was telling me about the poke truck (Island Mike's) & explaining that her coworker ran it as a side hustle, and that the poke was delicious because he had lived in Hawaii. I agonized a bit - get my Chilanga's huitlacoche huarache - or try the poke? I eventually decided: it's Mother's Day, you can have ALL the things, just like at a buffet! So I went to Island Mike's first. They advertised Broke Da Mouth poke - and I was a little suspicious at first - cuz Island Mike's didn't look like a Hawaii native but a mainlander who spent some time there. BUT... I got my poke "island style" (furikake, sushi rice, and the poke - not lots of distractions like seaweed salad or ginger like in the "mainland style") - and it really was off the hook. Really fresh & delicious and perfectly made. YUM & YUM. $12 for one scoop (the smaller size) & very worth it. Of course I still needed my Chilanga's so then I got the huitlacoche huarache (a vegetarian taste of heaven - shredded lettuce, huitlacoche, Mexican cheese on a huarache (masa dough) & tried the mango passion fruit agua fresca. The huarache is huge and I'd already had the little poke, so I took most of it home to eat later. But it was just as yummy as I remembered. And the agua fresca is amazing. I'll still crave Chilanga's but now I'll crave Island Mike's too. I need to get down here more often because it is a super fun outing that is too good to waste on tourists!

There was live music and aa few food stalls. Good Eatz (filipino/hawaiian fusion) caught my eye mainly because they have a few Ube pastries (mochi, ube bar, etc). I first ordered the ube bar which passed the test so I went back to order the mochi. They also offer lumpia, spam musubi and chicken wing combo plates and pork dumplings.

There are always a few local musicians at either end of the market strip and if you walk down by the water, there's usually a big group of people in a drum circle and dancing. Parking is brutal. Best to get there at the beginning of the farmers market for a better chance of finding a free spot and not having to pay for one of the lots as they can be quite pricey.

If you do buy a whole fish and don't want to clean and gut it yourself, there is a stall at the very end of the pier that will do it for you for about $1/lb (up to $20/fish). I bought a big slab of bigeye tuna (4lbs), and some smaller (but still large) filets of ono and halibut (maybe 3 lbs each?), and 3 rock crabs (2 female,1 male -- loved that I could choose crab sex). Total cost of the fish was $76, and the crabs were $13. For that amount of fish, I think it's really great. I prepared the tuna as tataki and poke. I checked with the seller than the fish had been frozen on the fishing vessel to kill parasites so it was good to go. INSANELY delicious. If I were hosting a big party, I would absolutely go for a whole fish. The whole halibuts were about 7-14 lbs each (for $13/lb) and the whole tunas were about 20 lbs each (for $3/lb!!!) in Dec 2024.

I had never given this vendor much thought until a few months ago when it was recommended to me. I can say Crepes Jourdan is the main reason I visit this farmers market on Saturdays. Their breakfast crepes are out of this world. You can site them under this little tent named Crepes 4 Lovers. They are located by a succulent vendor (a really cool stand and owner as well). It is a family run business. The dad makes the crepes while his daughter takes the order. This visit his young adorable son was taking orders and working register. Each crepe is made to order. Only one can be made at at time. He had two crepe burners. The ingredients would be on one burner while he would make a fresh crepe on the other. Our order took over 30 minutes as there were quite a few customers that Saturday. It was well worth the wait for freshly made crepes. We tried: THE CLASSIC $10: - sausage, bacon, one egg, cheddar cheese. It's served with a side of their sriracha house aioli and topped with fresh spinach. This was one of the best breakfast crepes I've had. The house aioli brought this savory crepe together. It was so creamy. I didn't find it spicy at all. If anything, I thought I could taste garlic in the aioli. The crepe was light and hide a nice chew to it. You could taste every component of this crepe. The one egg wasn't scrambled too long and the sausage + bacon were wonderfully present. THE WORKS $12: - sausage, chicken, bacon, tomato, mushroom, cheddar cheese. I was privately jealous as this crepe seemed more substantial. It was a heavier crepe with all the meats and tasted delicious. But we all agreed The Classic was the better choice for a morning breakfast crepe. We weren't a fan of the chicken in the crepe that day. my blog as more detailed review and pics I've tried the Classic a few times now. They definitely have consistency down here at Crepe Jourdan LLC. We have yet to have a bad version of any crepes here. They don't advertise and don't have social media. I absolutely recommend Crepes Jourdan when you visit the Little Italy Farmers Market on Saturdays.
