: I personally like "local produce", even if the sentence would have to be changed around.

many thanks hjs45! I think the local produce is covered by "productos de la tierra". For "tierra", I'm also thinking of the French "du terroir", vaguely meaning local...(+ implying a whole load more)

sorry, but near cuisine isn't English//too literal a quote, obvious to an EN speaker, and "near" is by no means the only dictionary def. And in any case, a Neutral would have sufficed to make your point - as I originally posted on your answer
