I had such a great time at the CitySeed Wooster St Farmer’s Market this past weekend! I was making a chilled cucumber soup with a radish salad…yum. Everyone really seemed to like it—I was running back and forth to some of the stands to get more ingredients. You all know how I feel about Farm-to-Table…and you [...]

Now this is what I’m talking about! I found a great article in the Los Angeles Times about the complexities of cooking with produce from the farmer’s market. According to the article, improvisation is everything. I can’t disagree. Cooking from the farmers market is a bit like playing jazz (or so it seems to this [...]

In case you didn’t get to see Jan Ellen Spiegel’s article in the New York Times, she tagged along with me to the CitySeed Downtown Farmer’s Market to get to know the Market Menu a little more. “You’d think something as common as chicken would be causing a lot less stress for Ms. Appel, chef [...]

Okay, okay. We hear you! Because you all asked so nicely, we’ve decided to offer one more Chef’s Table event this Spring before we take the summer off to focus on the Market Menu. So we thought a great way to switch over to the Market Menu kick-off will be to have a Market Menu [...]

I really hate to see the summer leave but I do love vegetables and products that become available this time of the year. The summer markets are in full harvest. As usual we’ve changed menu and we are smack in the middle of summer freshness. I know I am repeating myself…but this is my favorite [...]

I love spring and summer. From the trees growing to the flowers blooming…and best of all…the fresh vegetables growing! I know I’ve mentioned before how I grew up in Gram’s garden. But this seeing my garden start to grow just always makes me smile. My garden isn’t the only one starting to produce either. CitySeed [...]
