A little-big addition to Annie's collection of freakishly large flowers and vegetables, this ginormous yam was found at Iovine Brothers Produce located within Reading Terminal Market in Philadelphia recently. Perhaps not obvious from the pic, this yam was about the height of the average persons head. Yikes! Reading makes one of my all-time favorite markets, DC's Eastern Market, seem down-right minuscule... so I guess this post is about two big things. All righty then... ;)
Reading Terminal Market recommendations:
- Flying Monkey Patisserie (lavender, espresso, pistachio -- best cupcakes ever!)
- Tea Leaf
- Kamal's Middle Eastern Specialties
- Famous 4th Street Cookie Co.
- Chocolate by Mueller (solid chocolate noses, ears, and lungs -- just in case)
I notice a sweet theme here.
