2. It's Market Day in Belmont – only one month left in the season! – and shoppers will have a treat as Cafe Burrito, the instantly popular new Mexican cafe adjacent to the Studio Cinema, is having a tasting at 4 p.m. Occasional vendors this week will be Coastal Vineyards, Wild Acre Inns, Stow Greenhouses, Buttergirl Baking Co., Nutting Farm maple products, Janique's Delicious Madeleines, along with all of the weekly vendors.
