Ever been? DIDN'T THINK SO!
Coming from the land of Oregon and PDX : Saturday market . I was looking for another market over here in the world of Ohio! low and behold! there is nothing similar (had you going. Didn't I?). However, While there is nothing that is similar that I've found yet. There is a 1/2 open air market toward downtown Cincinnati called CIN : Findlay Market.
While Saturday market back in Portland was handmade craft central, Not too much on the food scene (food carts are a different story though, more referring to fresh foods. Farmers market style?) It was wonderful for buying handmade soaps, little knick knacks for your house, glass pipes (if you're into that sort of thing!) and all that greatness!
Findlay market on the other hand is KIND of similar. Part of it is in a rather large building. Outside and part of the inside has craft stuff, incense stands, handmade baskets etc. However the whole market tends to be a rather large fresh fare style shopping market! it is amazing if you need meats, veggies, spices, cheese etc. If you're in Portland, check out saturday market. If you're in Cincinnati, check out findlay market! And now to the pictures! :)

I know very little about Cincinnati: it's so interesting to read a Portlander's perspective.
ReplyDeleteThank you for the kinds words on my blog. :)
The pictures of Portland's market remind me of the Westside Market in Cleveland.
