KICK OFF MARDI GRAS THE LOCAL WAY

There’s plenty of bon temps to come this weekend at the Dallas Farmers Market with our local vendors and small businesses! Desserts, crawfish boils, and daiquiris are all ready to go, so come kick off Mardi Gras the local way. Rex’s Seafood is the go-to destination for all things fresh and delicious, including their Crawfish Boil by the pound. Stop by Rex’s this weekend for an authentic Cajun crawfish boil, and purchase tickets to their upcoming St. Patrick’s Day Crawfish Boil on Pearl Street. In The Shed you can get Mardi Gras started early with Just Good Cajun this Saturday with plenty of King cake, Gumbo, Crawfish Etouffee, and NOLA classics. Looking for a vegan dessert option? Wilder Sweets has you covered with Purple, Green, and Gold minny Cinny King Cakes, Fat Tuesday Cookies Pies and more!

If you’re looking for ways to bring Cajun cooking home this week, stop by Rockin JR Ranch for his award winning Remoulade Sauce – perfect for dipping or drizzling with shrimp or fried fish.

As always, the Dallas Farmers Market is a place for all people of all ages so bring the whole family to shop this weekend and enjoy Mardi Gras themed face painting at The Shed!
