Great variety at this farmers market in lovely Hyde Park. Good place to be on Thursdays. Wish it was on the weekend so I could visit more often.

Provocative visual art exhibits. Not stuffy or gigantic. Great place to spend an hour or two. Sleek coffee shop with wifi. Good public transportation nearby.
