Sunday market from 10-2. Pretty big selection of vendors and most are up and running by 9:30. Suggest you get there early! I always enjoy a walk around the lake and old airport hanger before hitting the market.
Belle Vie is one of my favorites with fresh duck. Lots of quick grab and go food in addition to provisions. Poochie Trends for fun dog bakery items.
