Taste-Tripping
Come hungry: there are dozens of food stands to weave your way around at the market.
Among the must-see stands are
Oyama Sausage Company
, replete with hundreds of
smoked sausages and cured meats;
Benton Brothers Fine Cheese
, with its full com-
plement of amazing curdy goodies from British Columbia (BC) and around the world
(look for anything by Farm House Natural Cheese from Agassiz , BC); and
Granville
Island Tea Company
(Hawaiian rooibos recommended), with its tasting bar and more
than 150 steep-tastic varieties to choose from. Baked goodies also abound: abandon
your diet at
Lee's Donuts
and
Siegel's Bagels
, where the naughty cheese-stuffed
baked bagels are not to be missed. In the unlikely event you're still hungry, there's also
a small international food court: avoid off-peak dining if you want to snag a table and
indulge in a good-value selection that runs from Indian curries to German sausages.
And if you want to dive into some regional, seasonal produce, there's even a
farmers
market
just outside the market building between June and October.
