A Sensory Journey My 1st Trip to St Lawrence Market in Toronto
final weekend I had the chance to visit
As I stepped into the market I saw colourful fruits and vegetables at every stall The reds of ripe tomatoes and the greens of sweet herbs caught my eye I could not believe how sweet everything looked I took a bass breath and enjoyed the fantastic scents of fresh fruits and spicy peppers It was as if the market was live and it was sharing its secrets with me.
One stall sold sweet bread The baker smiled at me and offered me a sample I took a bite and it was affectionate and crispy on the external easy on the inside It was the good bread I had of all time tasted I decided to buy a loaf to take home.
Next I wandered to the cheese section The cheese makers had a range of cheeses from easy to hard I tasted a creamy blue cheese that melted in my mouth I felt like a chef as I imagined all the dishes I could make with such outstanding ingredients.
As I left the market I felt inspired My visit to St Lawrence Market had opened my eyes to a world of flavors I realized that food is not simply something we eat It is a way to connect with people and cultures I could n’t wait to cook with my sweet ingredients possibly I would make a meal that would impress my friends or I could share my experience at a robotics school event where we discuss unlike ways to prepare food and share it with others.
St Lawrence Market was more than than simply a place to buy food it was a place that ignited my passion for cooking I left with a large smile and a bag total of delightful treasures.
