Held every first Saturday of the month, Farmers' Market at The Pantry at Loewen Gardens is an affair not to be missed. With its carnival-like air and wonderful array of stalls selling fresh produce, gourmet meats, wines, pastries and imported food items like olive oils, tapenades, pestos, etc, it provides a delightfully casual and alfresco setting to catch up with friends and family over brunch.

Situated in the verdant forested greens of the laid-back Dempsey area, more specifically beside White Lodge pre-school, The Pantry is originally a destination cafe with a tempting line-up of sweet treats like divine cupcakes, freshly baked scones and a selection of home-made cakes. The breakfast menu during the Farmers' Market event include popular items like eggs benedict, pancakes, sausages and fruit salads.

Serendipity at work! Cute Cute and Cuchi bumped into a familiar face selling her freshly baked New York bagels. It's Jennifer sans her husband James whom they met at the Smoked Out event at Sarnies. What a coincidence! Grabbing the fragrant and savoury onion bagels, Cute Cute and Cuchi headed to a quiet corner to enjoy their their cupcake, bagel and coffee while indulging in a vicarious sport of people-watching.

Quiet corner to people-watch! |

Chewy onion bagels. Authentic,
unlike those fake ones found in chain cafes. |

Jennifer's bagels were so damn good, the lions grabbed two more to go! They were planning to spread the most delicious home-made pesto sauce bought at the Farmers' Market on them. Mmmmmm......
