The Place: Crescent City Farmer’s Market, New Orleans

by American Way Staff

IN STORE: Unlike the touristy, trinket-filled French Market, Crescent City sells lots of fresh food. Operates in four locations (including the French Market), four days a week.

BUY THIS: Mirlitons (aka vegetable pears or
chayote squash) and Louisiana yams (aka sweet potatoes).
