Interesting place to try different foods and pick up some bulk spices. We went in March before the outside stalls are opened for the summer crowds so few arts or wares vendors. More

The market has a wonderful collection of shops and food stands. I can't wait to use my new spices and thoroughly enjoyed my authentic Belgian waffle! The only negative is the ridiculous parking price in the garage, seriously, $8 to go food shopping?!? More
