Do you know what sets the Mission Community Market apart from other farmer’s markets? We have so much more than just delicious, local, fresh produce! We also have vendors who want to feed you a variety of healthy, hearty dinner options. Come hungry to MCM this Thursday and indulge in some of what we have to offer. Having a hard time keeping track of what tasty dinner options are available? Allow us to break it down for you.
Roli Roti is the latest addition to the growing list of MCM’s hot food vendors, and they’ll bring their signature free-range rotisserie chickens each week. You can get a whole, half or quarter chicken, plus delicious roasted potatoes. Chaac Mool serves up traditional Yucatecan cuisine every Thursday as well. Try the cochinita pibil taco or pick up some handmade tortillas to go! You can also get a hot, juicy 4505 Meats cheeseburger any Thursday–try yours with a fried egg on top! We also now offer espresso, tea, and hot chocolate every week courtesy of Get Goes Mobile Cafe. They even have mocha shakes for warm afternoons. Finally, we have two vendors who alternate every other week: Onigilly and Kasa Indian. Kasa will serve up traditional Indian cuisine–including their gobi aloo kati roll–this week and Onigilly will have gourmet rice balls next week!
This week we’re excited to welcome Roli Roti to the Mission Community Market for the very first time! You may have enjoyed their signature free range Sonoma Valley rotisserie chicken at the Ferry Building and other local markets, but now you can pick up a whole, half, or quarter chicken conveniently in the Mission at MCM. Check out their farmer’s market menu to see what they’ll have on offer.
We’re very happy that Roli Roti will be joining the market this week, and we hope that all our loyal patrons will come out to show them some love on their first day!
