A quick blast from our gossip files. Ruhlman's "girly'man" taunt to Bourdain about his soft hands must have done the trick.
A friend wrote to tell me today that Michael Ruhlman and Anthony Bourdain were spotted, surrounded by more cameras than Pamela Anderson's boob job, at the Cleveland farmers market, buying a pig from the Amish farmer Ruhlman writes about.
I can't wait to hear Bourdain admit, however grudgingly, that Cleveland rocks.
You heard it here first.

Thanks for visiting.

That farmers' market generally sucks for produce (unless you have verrrry ordinary taste). But it kicks total heinie for pig.

Yes, I saw Bourdain and his entourage at Lola's downtown Cleveland. There were a few cameramen filming around the restaurant.

You want to diss the Westside farmers Market? Oh please.
Is it perfect? No. But the chance to get produce for WAY cheaper than the groceries, in the midst of the city, and talk to the farmers - fabulous. Plus their ethnic foods, sausage and spices - wonderful.
I am in California now and enjoying all that this state has to offer. But the warmth, tradition and tastes of the Westside Market... not to be overlooked!
