The Golden Apples of the Sun

[Demetrius]

As faire rapidly approaches and our excitement continues to build I am thinking about all the great food at faire and wondering what favorites people are looking forward to eating once again...

Personally, I find the Queen's Apple to be quite spectacular. A Granny Smith apple cored, in a bowl with hot caramel and whipped cream- and is very affordable for just about any knave.

So, what do you love to eat at faire...

The Smashed taters with cheese are Toki and my favorite now to nibble one. Baron of Beef and steak on a stake are good as well. Sausage on a stick is also one I like with LOTS of mustard on it and the fried corn can be good as well but the corn has to be flavorful and we know that not all corn can be good.

I like quick easy "finger" food... that I can nibble on between customers...  The thai green beans are one of my fave and the red beans and rice.  and I allow myself one bag of cinnamon almonds per season..

[Blushing]

I'll second the thai green beans ... with peanut sauce! =)

And the teriyaki chicken with rice is also on my list of favorites.

The pumpkin fudge is my favorite sinful treat.

The queens apples are my favorite by far. I just never seem to make it back to the shop with all my whipped cream though..

Thai beans are yummy, Sweet potato fries and fried pickles

Slightly melted Chocolate covered marshmallows
That yummy trail mix I make and bring. Full of Life and chocolate.
And....PICKLES!

This year, I plan on branching out more. There seems to be a whole section of the food court I've managed to miss all these years.

Here's my fav's... You now know why I'm so hefty!  LOL

Sunflower seed bread with icing (special request to the bakery, but they do it no extra charge.  My favorite Elizabeth and Monk got me going on this stuff.)

The Thai Green beans... I love those buggers!

Sweet potato fries ( they go down in price in the late afternoon, and are still good even if they sit under a heat lamp)

Those darn pretzels!  Jen got me hooked on them last year.  Great pick me up if you are stuck in your booth.

The artichoke hearts with both butter and mayo.  (beware though... there can be extra protein in this one.)

Yakatori Chicken gets me happy and going...although I sometimes like it better without the sauce! 

The Dark Chocolate truffles.  Need I say more?

'Course anything on a stick... pickle, elephant scabs (long story some will remember), sausage, chocolate covered bananas (best eaten with madrigals) and again Yakatori Chicken.

Last but not least... The garlic cloves preserved with jalapenos!  Garlic Festival Booth sells them.  Also love dipping the bread in the herb mixes.

For myself, the meat ball sandwich; for the Baroness, the foccacia.  For desert, we both like the frozen mocha.

Just thinking about it gives us Christmas stomach!

[Capt Spleen]

The day doesn't start properly without a frozen mocha and possibly a croissant...then for lunch I enjoy smashed taters with butter and cheese, or steak on a stake, or cheesy bread, or "hot dog in a pretzel"...every so often the girls in my booth will all go in on a "Death by Chocolate" and share that, it's much too rich for one person but four or five can get quite enough bites of yumminess. 

Also, I had no idea about the sweet potato fries, where are they??

[holierthanthou]

Sweet potato fries are located at the end of the row in Elephant loop.  They sell the Thai green beans there and fajitas or something fajitaish!

Guess I know where I'll be heading this opening day!
