A Foodie's Dream: Ferry Building & Farmer's Market

My favorite retail experience is the San Francisco Ferry Building. It’s got one of the top farmer’s markets plus great retail shops all in one! The Ferry Building retail space opened up in March 2003 and revitalizes the original 1898 ferry terminal with a unique shopping experience featuring only local artisanal products from around the Bay Area. The outside farmer's market is one of the largest in the nation and is widely acclaimed for the diversity and quality of the products. In this video I'll feature products from Hog Island Oyster Farm, Miette Bakery, Cowgirl Creamery Artisanal Cheeses, and El Porteno's Argentinian Empanadas.

Also love your video. It's so informative, filled with historical and current information, as well as reviewing the best places! Thank you!

[@psfca]

Great informative vlog with funky music... thanks !

[@FaylenesWorld]

I’m obsessed with your channel. Lol. I just moved to San Francisco and you have some awesome video content. Love it !!!

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Awww! Thanks so much! Hope you are finding some useful tidbits for your weekend explorations. 💕

[@HungryCook]

I go shopping | eating in Ferry building all the time, and still found enjoying watching your video. Hog Island Oysters is the must to go place whenever I have visitors in town! Love the Chipotle Bourbon Grilled Oysters and recently I am starting to learn to make them at home. 😋😋

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Yummy!

[@loulace8361]

You are such a kind soul! Just found your channel! Loved everything about your video. Very well done! Keep smiling

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Thank you! ❤️

[@LovingAtlanta]

👍Very nice video. I 😍love it there. I was reminiscing and missing it so I decided to watch some YT videos of it. It’s always my first stop when I land in San Francisco. Thanks for sharing. 🤗💞🤗

[@allofatfunhouse5101]

Wow I love all your content my wife and I have learned a lot from you

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

👍 Hope it’s helpful for your upcoming trip!

[@allofatfunhouse5101]

@@ZeeneInRealLifeit definitely is!

[@subwaysurfer5378]

Awesome video content

[@davidnissim589]

The best restaurant in the Ferry Building is the Slanted Door. Vietnamese fusion with a Westernized twist.

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Love that place! Very refined dishes.

[@maxwellyeager4841]

You are so cool and I appreciate you!

[@alexmcvetty2340]

Thank you for such a great video! It's so helpful for our planning of a trip later this year! Keep up the great work!

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Have a great trip and drop me a comment if I can help you with any trip questions or advice.

The absolute must do on Saturdays is the Roli Roti porcetta sandwich topped with the beyond delicious crispy seasoned crackling. They put a big dollop of very intense onion marmalade on the sandwich which I find overwhelms the pork flavor. When ordering it's a good idea to request the marmalade on the side to determine if and how much you'd want on your sandwich. Definitely open for debate, but that porcetta sandwich is probably the most delicious sandwich in the entire city. Great video, you showed many cool insider tips about the Ferry Building

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

I've heard that is the bomb! I'm going to feature it in an upcoming Epic Eatz video so thanks for the tip on the marmalade.

[@elsalisa146]

That was really.nice. I used to work at Cowgirl. There’s nothing like getting a fresh Epi right out of the oven from ACME. Sigh. Thank you.

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

LOVE Cowgirl! My mouth is watering right now for an ACME epi and a nice Mt. Tam. Yum!

[@davidnissim589]

Omg, I love ACME's sourdough loaves. I'm going to go get one when lockdown is over, it's been too long.

[@marthamartinez9232]

Great Video! Excited for my visit in San Francisco next week. Looking forward to stop to by the Hog Island Oysters

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Thanks for watching! Enjoy your trip!

[@allenwaddell556]

I've waited out the Roti line. It is really kick ass chicken. Hint: Get their early and pounce when the first open.

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

I still gotta try it -- all those people in line can't be wrong! Thanks for the tip on timing.

[@acbc3543]

Yum!!

[@theyseeyahshuasjustice2728]

Zenee your voice I thought I heard before. Are you a DJ? Thanks for sharing your videos I enjoyed them a lot, very informative and also you are lots of fun.

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Aww, thanks so much! No, I've never DJ-ed but it sounds like a fun job...

[@jacksp1787]

Dec 11 2020: Are the Ferry Bldg stalls open? I can't keep up with all the open/closed bidnesses. Living in Oakland now and immune-compromised, I venture forth seldom and reluctantly, but would love to hit the FB during the week if food is available. Thanks for all that you do, and do so well.

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

I think so!! Restaurants mostly for takeout and delivery.

[@dallasxal]

Just found the channel. Great content. Thanks for sharing. I was in San Francisco last week and I will be there again in a couple of weeks so watching all the content I can to eat delicious food. Pro tip: It is empanada with an N, not empaÑada. The N sounds like a regular N in Spanish

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Thank you and good tip!

[@Pistol_Knight]

Think you tackled the Oyster the wrong way around, sloped end in your mouth, cliff edge away from you, best Raw with maybe a few drops of Tabasco sauce, Grilled! never heard of grilling them, but going there in a few months time so will be interested to try them

[@Pistol_Knight]

I know im late to this vid.....but im in the SF rabbit hole on you tube :)

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

For sure it was prob turned around! 😂 You’ve got to try grilled - it’s a totally different experience! I’ve got another two vids on Hog Island 🦪 if you want to see what else they’ve got. 👍

[@이진원-y9r]

Even Eating time so gorgeous San Francisco area bread also such a delicious i wanna go there paradise of ocean and bread teste also San Francisco...specifically your face very gorgeous...

[@braumenheimer9607]

CUESA told me a ways back that they aren't accepting applications for food vending spots...how can I get one?

[@acbc3543]

I wish I could stretch 24 hours into 30 ... Nothing like a triple espresso in the morning

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

You'll just have to do another trip back!

[@acbc3543]

I think it’s gonna be the first and last time you will ever see me because we’ll be moving overseas next year ..

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Oh no! Well, bad that it's the last meet-up but great that you guys are heading to a new adventure! We'll talk more in January!

[@user-yv2cz8oj1k]

Pot Pie with olives? Don't tell the Cornish, it looks suspiciously like a Cornish Pasty.

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Lol, possible there was some cross-cultural pollination?

[@allenwaddell556]

Watching this again. I cannot recommend Capay's produce, particularly their carrots highly enough.

[@cf4880]

that music is horrible

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Thanks for the feedback! It was early on and I've since changed it in follow-on episodes. Been thinking of remaking some of the earlier episodes.

[@victorh7267]

Please remove this terrible song!!!

[@biomanization]

Am I really gonna pay $30 a pound for feta cheese at Cow Girl? hot chocolate drinks in the Ferry Buiding are $6.00. The wait for Blue Bottle coffee can take more than an hour. I love your enthusiasm for San Francisco, but next time, please provide prices, and be more objective

[@ZeeneInRealLife]

Hi Paul, thanks for the feedback! Wellll, Ferry Building is pure gourmet and the prices (AND quality) reflect this. It's great for someone who is a total foodie and appreciates the extra TLC put into food production. It's by no means for everyone! Will try to include more pricing info if possible. Thanks again for taking the time to comment! 👍

[@biomanization]

Zeene InRealLife It’s not pure gourmet. It’s just an example of how San Francisco is so out of touch with the middle class. Better quality, real non-GMO, and better prices on a Paris street market
