Rib plate
AS many times as I have eaten here or at the brick and mortar store, I have yet to eat this bad boy. Perhaps its the messy ribs thing. Usually at the farmers markets, seating is a premium and rips almost beg for a table and powerwasher or the very least a huge pile of napkins. The whole theme of the farmers market is sustainability, so I tend to avoid the truly messy dishes. Someday though...someday.
Beef brisket cheesesteak
Beef brisket cheesesteak: My choice for today. Along with the Bacon Feta Mac and Cheese (review to come later). Not much to say, other than its a big sammy, its a delicious sammy. And I will order it again, and again, and again. But bring napkins!
Soul
Ive ordered this many times. The only thing you cant see is his coleslaw on the far side. Sad. I dont like coleslaw. I like his. And his Collard Greens.
Chicken and waffles
Chicken and waffles at Soul Patrol. Yum!

Soul Patrol!

Soul
@pacificSoul via grand master (as I like to call him) Sean Priester is one of my fave comfort food spots on the island. His chicken is extremely tough to beat, as is his Turkey leg and I have yet to find anyone to beat his Cornbread. Hes a regular at the farmers markets and has is own brick and Mortar place on Waialae by the fat greek and City Mill.

Bao!
Steamed Bao Buns from Kiba Cafe. At $3 a piece, its good finger food with quality. Steamed on the spot, these buns are stuffed with either Chinese Soy Braised Pork Belly or Vina d'ahlos. perfect as a walk and eat food while checking out the farmers market items.
Ward farmer's market!
Ward farmer's market is held every Wed at the Blaisdell Center. It is located either on the lawn fronting the concert hall, or in the long parking lot fronting ward and kapiolani blvd when the convention center is in use. Parking is always free. Aside from the usual farmers market faire (veggies et al) there is a growing number of restaurants popping up. Today I sampled from the Soul Patrol (Pacific Soul, Waialae ave by the Fat Greek) and Kiba Cafe (so far only at farmers markets). My friends made a bee line towards pig and the lady, the farmers market inclination of the pop up restaurant first located inside Hanks Haute Dogs.
