Eastern Market Continues 125th Anniversary Celebration

Eastern Market is celebrating 125 years of service residents of downtown and Metro Detroit. 

Chef Aaron Egan visited the Fox2 kitchen to showcase some of the fresh, locally grown ingredients he likes to use in several signature dishes, like his three corn saute.
