Located across the street from the Hilo Farmer's Market, Farmer's Kitchen is just a window with outdoor table seating, but the call for free samples will certainly catch your attention and it worked - it got us to buy. 

- Egg Rolls - Even though it was only about 10am, I couldn't resist their fresh egg rolls.  The oil is fresh as can be seen by the coloring on the fried wrapper.  Fresh and yummy with a slight crunch in the filling and a crisp crunch from the wrapper, this is a good treat.   $1 each

- Turnovers - Pork and Taro or Curry Beef - Available in two flavors, the turnover are reminiscent of a fresh version of a hot pocket.  The pork and taro is a lot like pork and potato in texture with sweet onion to add flavor and texture.  The curry beef is ground beef cooked with curry, much like Chinese curry beef turnovers.  The outside is cooked until slightly crisp and golden brown.  This is a great taste of comfort food - delicious.  $2

Farmer's Kitchen is a great addition to the Farmer's market scene.  I could eat these treats any time of day.  If you need breakfast or lunch, they also offer burgers,corned beef hash, sandwiches, and more.
