Listen up, people. As we speak, hearty spears of asparagus and red, red rhubarb are descending upon our city, and it's only a matter of time before little strawberries and juicy watermelons follow their lead.

Clark Park Farmers Market
|
Where is this produce? It'll soon be scattered across more than 30 farmers markets — run by Farm to City and the Food Trust — opening throughout Philly during spring and summer, featuring a bunch of new locations, farmers and cheesemongers. It's our job to track it all down. After all, we asked for it.
The numbers speak for themselves: In 1992, when the Food Trust began, it ran one farmers market. By 2003, it had 16; that number has nearly doubled in 2008.
"When we first started going weekly in the winter markets, Clark Park and Fitler Square, in 2005, I had to really scrounge for farmers. I was practically begging," says Nicky Uy, project manager of the Food Trust. Fitler had one farmer. Clark Park had three. Now, they both have roughly three times that many.
"People are more and more interested in getting to know their producers," says Uy. "Where is their food coming from? To me, half the fun is knowing how your food is grown, and who grew it."
The other half is finding the markets, which often open in the wee hours of the morning (OK, 10 a.m.). Our advice: Set your alarm clock, snip out this little list (which continues on p. 21) and check things off as you go.

It's rare for any chef — let alone one about to open his first restaurant — to take his staff on an international excursion to immerse them in the food they will cook and serve. But to Israeli-born chef Michael Solomonov, a seven-day expedition in the first week of March was key to a process that began last summer when he began realizing his vision for a modern Israeli restaurant. Solomonov and co-owner Steve Cook wanted to give senior staff a small window into Solomonov's Israel. New York-based food writer Pervaiz Shallwani and City Paper staff photographer Michael T. Regan, friends of Solomonov, were invited to tag along on the journey, which will culminate Monday, May 5, when Zahav (Hebrew for "gold") opens its doors in Society Hill.

Tel Aviv, Israel — Straight off a 10-hour economy-class flight from Newark, an entourage from Philadelphia is greeted by an enthusiastic and eager man just beyond the baggage claim conveyors at Ben Gurion International Airport. His name is Michael Solomonov. He's their boss. And he's sent for them.
There is little time for chatter. There's important work to be done. More specifically, eating. Solomonov has flown this contingent, employees of his opening-soon Israeli restaurant, across the ocean for a whirlwind culinary t...
