This is a photo I took at a mexican market in my home town of Paramount called Northgate. It used to be a Von's market, and Im not sure why it left. This market caters to the local overwhelming hispanic population. I had to go grab something while visiting my mother, and I was so shocked when I passed a whole group of mariachis playing while people were shopping. How cool was this? It's so much more colorful than your garden variety Pavilion's or even Whole Foods for that matter. And it's cheaper of course!

I went there last time I was in LA to get food for a BBQ - it was the cheapest and best carne asada I ever bought! Plus, you can get all the pan dulce you like and then eat all of them in the car on the way home... (um yeah, I have to buy every one that looks good)
