San Francisco: Farmer's Market

This weekend in San Francisco was so beautiful. The weather went from a miserable storm that made every commuter mutter under their breath and swear they will never forget their umbrellas again to beautiful 70s weather for Fleet Week. In addition to Fleet Week, I also checked out the Ferry Building's weekly Farmer's Market that ran from 8am - 2 pm (my current obsession, after discover the Thursday Farmer's Market during lunch time at the Galleria on Montgomery).
Fruit stands, pastries, bread, vegetables, fish, food.. you name it

Grumpy because a stand ran out of chocolate covered almonds - my favorite!

They even sold packaged salmon here

Ditching the Boyfriend and running toward the flower stand. Hey, who would resist fresh flowers that were only $5 a bouquet?


Blue Angels flying in the sky, drawing out hearts and diving like a rollercoaster on steriods


Roli Roti! Tried the Porchetta sandwich - best street pulled-pork sandwich I've tried. They have a rotisserie inside the truck, and serves only sustainably farmed meats and organic produce from neighboring cities.



Sitting by the pier, watching the Blue Angels, enjoying the sun, my sandwich, and great company



From Embarcadero, we ventured out to the Marina, where we stopped by Palace of Fine Arts - there was a beautiful wedding under the dome and photoshoots going on all around it.


Hope you all had a great weekend!

I love going to Farmer's markets as well. Yours looks a whole lot better than the ones near me cause the view is fantastic. I should definitely venture into SF for this...if not mainly for that delicious looking sandwich!

Following you now.
