Cook the Book: 'Endangered Recipes' by Lari Robling
My fondest childhood food memory was when I went to New Orleans with my parents (I was about 8). I was always a picky eater, but one night we went to an Italian restaurant and I had Veal Parmesan. I had never had it before, but that night Iate it all up and since then, the dish has been one of my favorites.

For me, the most important part is knowing when the food is cooked properly. Even in shows like Top Chef and Next Iron Chef, you have the chefs not cooking the food properly...

I like going to the farmers' markets in Santa Monica, CA. Not only do you find unusual fruits & vegetables, but chefs from the top restaurants also shop there.

Cook the Book: 'L.A.'s Original Farmers Market Cookbook'
I love the famer's market at the North Market in my hometown of Columbus, Ohio - local producers without fail have a terrific selection of beautiful fruits (with exceptionally large and juicy strawberries) and veggies. It's a weekend tradition for me and my friends to visit it and stock up for the week.

There's one near here that's in a big red barn and it's right off of the highway so it's such a visual reminder. It's been there since I was a child so I have great memories of going there with my parents too.

I often drive over to the local farmer's market on Saturday mornings at about 11:30 AM to pick up a few dozen tamales to get me through the week; our market has the best pepper selection (hotter the better) in the whole state of AZ !!!

I live about 15 minutes away from a town that holds a huge farmer's market each Saturday from July through the fall, where I can find everything from fresh strawberries to homemade bread. Yum!

There is a local farmer that sells his corn at my farmers market. We get corn from him a few times every summer. It is the best corn on the cob. It is perfection.

One of my favorite vendors is the guy who sells mellons in the summer. He has great prices, good produce, and tells a mean joke too

I love the peanut guy at my weekly farmers market in LA County.

I don't go to farmer's markets. The closest thing to a really good quality selection of produce, meats, baked goods, etc., in my area(Miami, FL)is Norman Bros. Produce in the south end of Miami-Dade county. (The last time I was in L.A. was Nov., 1976. I thought the Farmer's Market there was outstanding...no particular favorite vendor.)
Cook the Book: 'L.A.'s Original Farmers Market Cookbook'
The options here are very limited so we usually got Collins Orchard pick-your-own.

The farm market vendors in Madison, Wisconsin are the best.
