It opened in 1988 in the basement of the Federation’s headquarters in New Windsor, New York. After several moves over the ensuing years the World Chess Hall of Fame opened on September 9, 2011 in Saint Louis in the Central West End directly across the street from the Chess Club and Scholastic Center of Saint Louis.

The FBBB takes traditional New Orleans brass tunes and gives them a twist, in the style of the Dirty Dozen Brass Band, Rebirth and Bonerama. You may also detect some Motown, Southern rock, Memphis soul, Chicago blues and St. Louis R&B in the mix.

MISTAKES MADE BY FARMERS MARKET BEGINNERS If you haven’t spent much time at farmers markets, they can be a bit intimidating. Here are some tips to help you in navigating the market.

Award Winning Burgers & Roast Beef

ARRIVING TOO LATE

Showing up at a farmers market in the late morning means big crowds and pickedover produce. Beat the rush by going early and getting the best of the season. Morning light is also best for snapping pictures, if you’re into that sorta thing.

FORGETTING TO BYOB (BRING YOUR OWN BAGS!)

Most farmers markets provide small plastic bags for your purchases, but you definitely want to have a larger bag to carry your bounty or you’ll be heading home prematurely.

BUYING STAPLES

One of the advantages of shopping at a farmers market is that you get the best of the season from local farmers, which is likely to be different from your normal grocery store purchases. There’s nothing wrong with buying foods you know you like, but try to be adventurous with new produce. You may be pleasantly surprised.

Kitchen Open:

Monday - Saturday: 11 am - Midnight Sunday: 12 pm - 10 pm

Bar Open Until 3AM Friday and Saturday

4652 Shaw Avenue at Kingshighway

314-773-6600

NOT ASKING QUESTIONS

You may not know everything there is to know about seasonal vegetables, but the farmers who grow them certainly do. Walk up to each vendor with a smile and ask them what their favorites are this week. If you’ve never cooked with them before, ask for an example recipe or serving suggestions. You can always search recipes online when you get home, so don’t feel like you need to know exactly how you’re going to prepare something before buying it.

FORGETTING CASH

Farmers market veterans know better than to show up at the market without cash in our wallets. Credit cards are not accepted by most farmers and the line at the local ATM machine is a wait you could live without. Pick up some cash on your way to avoid the headache.

BRINGING PETS

Check your local market rules before bringing Fluff Fluff along on your shopping trip.

TRYING TO NEGOTIATE

s ’ n i v e K PLACE

GREAT PIZZA! ST. LOUIS STYLE

The Chef to the Stars BARS! DINE-IN • CARRYOUT • DELIVERY

Farmers markets are not flea markets, and haggling is generally not part of the etiquette. Sometimes very late in the day farmers will offer discounts, but it is generally best practice to respect the set prices. Farmers work harder than most of us can imagine, and their asking prices are more than fair.

NOT SHOPPING AROUND

Samples are commonplace at farmers markets and allow you to find the best produce to match your taste. Nothing is worse than buying a basket of strawberries and then finding better ones two stands away. Shop around a bit before deciding on the best purchases. You know you’ve picked the right stuff if you can barely get it home without eating it all.
