The first of three Downtown Strategic Plan Public Meetings was scheduled to be held tonight (the snow canceled it, and it should be rescheduled soon) but I can’t help but think that yesterday’s Dispatch article about the North Market by Robert Vitale was timed intentionally for this event. The article starts off by looking back 20 years [...]

Salvation Army Bell Ringing 2009
I’m returning for more bell ringing duties with the Salvation Army this season, and this year I’ve gotten a better time and location! I’ll be at the North Market on Saturday, December 12th from 9:30 am to 11:30 am to help raise funds for Salvation Army Columbus. The money raised from this campaign go toward [...]
Things I like: Eating “Everyday” Foods From the Best Chefs in the City
On Saturday, my brother-in-law Matt and I went over to the North Market to volunteer for their Cinco D’Ohio event (the image and link are both from the great CMH Gourmand review). It’s one of their smaller festival events, which is actually a nice change of pace from the insanity of the Apron Gala or [...]
Why you should attend the North Market Apron Gala
The annual North Market Apron Gala fundraiser event is coming up on May 16th. “Fundraiser” sounds boring, right? This is anything but. Essentially, this event is a private after-hours party on a Saturday night at the North Market. You pay the entry fee and then you’re free to graze all of the wonderful food that [...]

Congrats to KatieB on the Pumpkin Cheesecake Pie!
Congrats to my sis-in-law Katie for winning the Pumpkin Pie contest at the North Market‘s Harvest Festival this morning! Nice!
What can $10 at the North Market get you?
On Saturday, Anne & I dropped by the North Market to pick up a few items. We got there around 3:30, and only one of the farmer’s market vendors were still open outside. If you want the best selection you’ve got to get there between 8am and 10am. I was actually sort of surprised they [...]
Would a downtown Giant Eagle be good for the North Market?
Earlier this month it was announced that Giant Eagle is exploring the development of a store on a parcel located at the intersection of Vine & Neil (an area I’ve long despised), which would be located very close to the North Market. I’ve heard that there are studies showing predictions on both sides of the [...]
The 2008 Apron Gala at the North Market
Anne & Desi & I attended the 2008 Apron Gala on Saturday evening. It was our first time participating in this annual fundraiser for the North Market, and I think we’re going to be making it a yearly thing from now on. Basically, this event is like having the whole North Market to yourself for [...]
North Market Saturday Morning Tradition
As I mentioned last weekend, Anne & I have decided that we’re going to start patronizing the North Market every Saturday morning to purchase some grocery items for the week. We’re starting out with a $20 bill in hand each week, which may grow over time. But we figure that’s reasonable for now, and a [...]
