farmer's market tour

Got to go on a tour of the Central Square farmer's market with Chef Chris Schlesinger of the East Coast Grill, thanks to the Mass Farmer's Market Facebook page.  I've never actually eaten at East Coast, but I'm thinking I might try their brunch some time now.

I ended up buying more than I normally do at a farmer's market, and more adventurously as well. My haul:
  • Hen of the woods mushrooms
  • Calabash squash
  • Yellow carrots (very sweet!)
  • Brussels sprouts
  • Garlic
  • Cortland apple (for baking with bleu cheese)
  • Honeycrisp apple (for nomming)
They're trying to get Tony Maws, from Craigie St, to do a tour before market season ends -- man, would I love to be along for that one!
