This was the highlight of the day -A whole lobster, fries and coleslaw for around $10. Ok, I have to concede, this meal would cost me an arm and a leg here in Philly.

If this is what Boston calls a "farmer's market" then Philly wins hands down. This was really just some cheap and smelly produce from Mexico.

Wow I just realized I watch way too many "reality" food tv competitions. Stupid Bobby Flay.
