Redland Market Village

A trip to the Redland Market Village feels like taking a little vacation to another country. It's sensory overload, in the best way possible: lady finger bananas and bags of cranberry beans next to a tent full of boxer briefs. But the food vendors are the most exciting part of this market. There’s a long corridor of taco stands and trucks with so many delicious options it’s slightly overwhelming. So prioritize El Taco Loco and Taqueria Aztlan. These two spots take credit cards, but not everyone does so bring cash. Also keep your eyes peeled for Colombian arepas, fresh juice, salchipapas, and the little stand that sells grilled corn by a stage where you can watch a guy in tight pants and a cowboy hat passionately sing boleros. Go on a Saturday or Sunday from 7am to 6pm, when all food vendors are guaranteed to be there and the flea market is open.
