Green City Market 2010

It was Saturday morning and I loved being back at Green City Market. This for me was the official start of summer.

The weather was perfect and I was inspired to cook up a storm because the ingredients sold at the market are so fresh…many of them being organic.

Of course, it’s peony time and nearly everyone had a big bunch in hand.

Here are some of the things I found today and no wonder that so many of the great chefs in Chicago support and shop at this market each week on Wednesday and Saturday.

Here were two of my favorite vendors:

Nancy Silver
Snookelfritz Ice Cream Artistry.
Some of the most incredible flavors ever and I grew up on great ice cream.

Floriole 1220 West Webster…rubarb bread pudding and other pastry to die for!

Bon Appetit!
