Feedback
Macro Mamas is the best! We picked up the platter of the day from the Ithaca farmers market and were obsessed with it. Love the macrobiotic-whole foods/plant-based approach. The tarragon chickpeas were incredible. Her desserts are also outstanding, especially the tahini chocolate cookie and the spherical hazelnut cookie. I wish there were more restaurants and chefs making food like this.
We ordered tasty and filling lunches from Macro Mamas at the Ithaca Farmers Market: the “Popular Plate “ (salad, house dressing and peanut lime cold noodles and a hearty salad with chick peas, greens , quinoa and beets. There are other interesting dishes on the menu, including a large or small sampler platter and vegan cookies. The service was friendly and quick, and the prices were reasonable for the generous portions. Definitely worth a try at the market.
I’d definitely recommend their salad topped with the peanut lime noodles. This was an excellent lunch at the farmers market.
I’ve never had a bad platter from Macro Mama’s, though they change every week. Their corn fritters and peanut lime noodles are worth the wait in line.
We caught Macro Mamas at a weekend farmer's market, and have been looking for them every weekend since. Their food is amazing, with large helpings. Meals are whole-foods-plant-based, and the desserts are amazing. Seriously, macro is the way to go!
