Madison Square Market is a Farmer's Market located around and inside Madison Square Park. I've been…read morethere many times over the years and really enjoyed the variety of vendors. It's been a while since I've been to the park. When I worked closer to the park I would enjoy the market frequently. The park is beautiful and you can go to Shake Shack in the park for lunch! Check out the market when you are nearby. I'm recommending.

How did I only just learn about the market today, as it nears the end?? Being me, I only made it to…read morethe food part due to all the temptations. I opted for Ilili and got the bekka marsook and fried cauliflower. I didn't know what the bekka was and thought it'd be more gyro like. Tasty but not very filling. The fried cauliflower was really good and worth the $4. Since I was still peckish, I got a mini pretzel from Samuel's and chose bacon scallion. Wow it's good - it's like a scallion pancake in pretzel form plus BACON! Dangerously close to work and I forsee another lunch excersion.

Love a good fresh farmer's market. Would give a 5 if there was more and longer hours- but perhaps…read moreif there are more customers and advertising, that may happen.

One thing that is unmistakably valued is a local Green Market. I feel fortunate if I happen by on a day it's open. While I'm nearby I take photos of Landmarks. I also grab something to eat and sit in the Katherine Hepburn Garden. I like to enjoy the many sculptures in the vicinity. This area has a peaceful calming effect on me. I'm a fan. I do stay away when the UN is in session. That's Crazy Time!

The sushi looks great, but I have not tried it yet.

I've worked in the Chelsea Market for 4 years now and have never once bought fruit from the…read moreManhattan Fruit Exchange. I know. Shocking. Instead I stuck to Haribo gummy snacks - i know, also shocking. Appalling even. Last week I had a craving for some fresh fruit so I stopped into the Manhattan Fruit Exchange and grabbed a pack of strawberry's and black cherry's. Strawberry's with sugar are one of my favorite snacks and these are the ripest, juiciest, sweetest strawberry's I've ever tasted. Don't be fooled by the name, Manhattan Fruit Exchange has a plethora of produce ranging from common to hard to find fruits and veggies. Things to know: The space is large and refrigerated so be prepared for the chill or bring a sweater (the workers wear sweatshirts even in the summer). Self serve. CASH ONLY.

The prices are a bit inconsistent: some of their stuff can be expensive, but much of it is pretty cheap by NYC standards. Their spices are cheaper than the last Indian supermarket I went to in Jersey City. So if you have an idea how much things should cost, then you can score some great deals here. $10 minimum for credit card (MC/Visa/Amex/Discover/JCB).

They are 2 days late. Dutch Meadows refuses to refund me or send another package. I don't feel comfortable eating them since they could have gone bad. This is UNACCEPTABLE! Forcing a customer to eat eggs that have gone bad and risk getting food poisoning is BEYOND incomprehensible. In addition, they threatened to lock my account bc Janice says I was cussing at her. That is a lie. Stay away from this "FARM".

Having been opened in 1970 by Ukrainian butcher Julian Baczynsky, little has changed to their old school exterior, as captured by Chantal Akerman's 1976 "News from Home." East Village Meat Market maintains a range of delicious prepared Ukrainian and related delicacies, perfect to take to your home to enjoy. While there are meats like Kovbasa (i.e., sausages,) and what they deemed a "Ukrainian Style Hot Dog," you'll also find yummy assorted fresh Blintzes and Croquettes, like the ones I picked up this last time to gobble down at home. (FYI - Definitely recommend my yummy Peach Cheese and Banana & Honey Blintzes, plus Sauerkraut Mushroom Croquette!) The staff are incredibly friendly, plus there's much, much more than those options at East Village Meat Market,... but you should head on down to this special shop to check out what you might enjoy.
