While taste testing those beers today, I met the charming author of the Farmer's Market Cookbook, Joann Cianciulli. She celebrates the market from its humble beginnings in 1934 to its place as one of the top visited sights in Los Angeles. It's one of my favorite places and I was so glad to find that it is one of Joann's too. From Mexican, Brazilian to Middle Eastern cuisine and good old American fare, the market has something for everyone. Dupar's by far has the finest pancakes - ever! Then there are the assorted roasted nuts, fresh fruits, fudge & toffee, ice cream, glazed doughnuts - don't get me started. I can't wait to sit down and read each vendor's story. Meet me at 3rd and Fairfax!!
