EXTRA: My Sunday Adventure

EXTRA: Just have to say that I have had wonderful experiences recently at The Modern, The Modern Bar Room, Union Square Cafe, and other restaurants who get alot of their produce and other ingredients in the Greenmarket. Sunday afternoon I had a meal to remember forever at Blue Hill at Stone Barns, where I had tomatoes from Tim Stark and Cherry Lane, apricots from Red Jacket, beans, chervil and tiny potatoes from Mountain Sweet Berry, corn fritata and corn ice cream(!) made from Sycamore's corn, Ronnybrook's butter, beans from Miglorelli and Samascott, Mountain Sweet Berry's baby zucchini, Locust Grove's sweet and sour cherries, and Phillips' red currants. All of these ingredients were used in a parade of delicious and original taste treats. I'm so impressed with New York's bounty, especially in a season when late blight is affecting so many of our farms so adversely. Thank goodness for the Greenmarket farmers!!!
