Central Market

Now I know a lot of folks rave about this place...but I wasn't that impressed. It was CROWDED, it was DARK, and it just didn't feel like Texas LOL!

I bought a sausage that was venison/pork and that was good...and would be hard to find elsewhere.

I guess the things they had inside were okay and interesting but the layout was hard to maneuver in, the place was really not well lighted and I felt like the ceiling was coming down to get me lol. I thought'd be more "airy" and spacious than it was.

The "cafe" area seemed cool, lots of choices. My Mom bought some tamales and pronounced them "not good". She gave me half and I thought they were decent so...jury's out on the tamales lol.

Anyhow...it was interesting and might have been more so on a less crowded day perhaps.

Which one did you go to?  I love Central Market for specific things but do not shop there regularly.  I go to the one on Hulen and am used to the layout enough to know where to go.  The outdoor cafe is really fun on the weekends b/c they often have live music and you can get a table and go inside to the Cafe on the Run and everyone can eat what they want or buy something outside at a vendor.  Then you go in and buy a bottle or wine or 6 pack of beer and you are set for free live music and a little family fun.

I like to go there for special meets, different cheeses or wines and I like the Cafe on the Run for different things like when I need a quick meal or even if I am suppossed to bring a side dish somewhere I can go pick something out if I don't have time to cook it.  I think the tamales are OK, much better than what I would make, but not the best I have ever had.  They freeze nicely though!
