Vivi, my new local chef friend, suggested we meet up again on Saturday morning for a look at one of the city’s newer markets, the Feria Verde de Aranjuez, an organic food market that’s held every, well, Saturday morning.

Really, just another trio of quickie, mini-reviews, places we/I have popped out to for lunch over the last few weeks.

MARY: Is there anything that you miss about New York when you’re there? MARC: Not really. Sometimes I miss hamburgers, I should say that. I miss the tuna pizzas at Mercer Kitchen. – Mary Clarke interview with Marc Jacobs, in Index Magazine Back and getting back in the swing of things.
