Great produce place.. good location, its on my way when I'm doing my errands so I can just stop in here and find produce at good prices.. This is a great market and the fruits and vegetables are always fresh and great-tasting.. I prefer buying them here than at a big grocery store.. A bit cheaper too..

It's got herbs and all the other Asian food items you need for certain things. Sometimes they'll have these things called "Pocky" that I like for only 50 cents! That's the best price ever I've seen.
The people are very nice. It's on the corner surrounded by other stores and restaurants. It's got a good variety. I like to walk through there and browse around just to see what they have. Usually get their snacks, such as cookies, crackers, etc.
Just make sure you watch your step when you go in and out of the store especially if you're an elderly person.

The Wine House in Los Angeles is an amazing wine shop, truly world class. They have a huge selection of wines from around the world, broken up by region and varietal. The prices are fair. They have some tastings and classes, though they are on the expensive side. Good selection of liquor as well. Lots of different cognacs and tequillias, and a good selection of half bottles as well.

The Westwood Farmer's Market offers some great fresh produce - some of which is at great discounted prices. Not all the food is organic, however, plenty is. Also, there is much more than just great produce. There are plenty of great prepared dishes from various international regions. Asian and South American food are someo of the highlights. Most of the people working the Westwood Farmer's Market are extremely helpful and friendly. You are often able and encouraged to sample the various produce. I believe the Westwood Farmer's Market lasts from about one o'clock in the afternoon until sundown. That is plenty of time to set aside and schedule a visit. In season produce is of course a plus. Not only is produce in season at the peak of taste, it is also at some of the best prices around town. If you question it, there is a Ralphs directly adjacent to the Westwood Farmer's Market. Go in and compare price of in season produce. The Farmer's Market is a nice afternoon experience with great food.

This kosher butcher has been on Fairfax for many years and just recently expanded into the store next door. It is much more updtodate looking now. THere London Broil is great. The meat is prepackaged but they will repackage it for you or make up the size package that you need. There are times that they carry their own burritos. They are also a small kosher market as well as a butcher.Closed Fri night, Sat and all major Jewish holidays.

Great place to buy alcohol from if you are looking for something nice. They have racks of wine and all kinds of bottles that are so expensive you should not even be looking at it through the glass case and all the other stuff protecting it from human curiousity. Of course they have the "normal" alcohol too. The people working there also know their stuff and they are very helpful. They will come around and ask if you need any help. I asked one of the workers for a recommendation on something and he asked me about my budget and what I would be using it for and he picked out an excellent bottle for me.

More
This small market is frequented predominantly by local residents who don't want to venture out to the larger chain stores and who don't mind paying a little extra for just about everything. Vicente Foods manages to pack a lot into their square footage though, including fine wines, a deli, Viktor Benes bakery and, next door, a pharmacy (which is a separate entity). For those who are interested in this sort of thing, celebrities can be spotted shopping here on occasion.

Most of the Trader Joe's on the Westside are comparable in terms of merchandise and selection, but this one "wins" because of -- the parking situation! It's so much easier to get into and out of this store, in part because they share a parking lot with Longs Drugstore. And unlike the locations on Pico/Centinela and Westwood/National, you won't spend fifteen minutes in parking lot gridlock. The staff at this Traders is exceptionally friendly and their selection of prepared foods is well stocked (other Westside locations tend to be pillaged by day's end).

If you' have never shopped at Trader Joe's for groceries, household supplies, or wine/beer then you have been missing out! Get yourself there immediately--great imported foods, wonderful prices on produce and all manner of goods. Great desserts. They have organic foods and tend to be health food oriented. The wine selection and price is superb as are the beers. I just LOVE TJ's!! I think that the store in Culver City is the best--it's got the best selection, is a new building, and isn't as crowded as the other stores. Check out the website for locations. Oh yeah and they have great prices on imported cheese.

Since the baby came along, our grocery bill has gone up quite a bit. One place where I know our dollar goes far is Trader Joe's. Not only do they have a very good selection of healthy and reasonably priced foods, but even their frozen food section is a great place to stock up on a week's worth of meals without breaking the bank or eating junky fast food. Items I recommend: Naan, Garlic Naan, Gnocci, Bulgogi (not frozen, in the meat section), and any of their quiches.
