Small local Hispanic market that services this neighborhood. There are several taquerias nearby so…read morethere must be a strong Latino presence in this hood. Slightly bigger than a 7-11 so not grocery store sized. Not seriously stocked but for a neighborhood store, I'm sure it has most things to make a convenient trip. The produce area is small and not extensive at all. But you will find the basics to make basic Hispanic meals. Tomatoes, fresh chilis, onions, potatoes and cilantro all plentiful here. Just won't find stuff a bigger Hispanic grocery store might carry, like exotic fruits, fresh nopales (cactus), prickly pears etc... Dry goods well represented from canned and bottled sauces to tons of choices of dry beans in all shapes and sizing. A rack of dried chilis make it proper and they even have shelves with non-hispanic items like canned/dried American convenience foods. Multiple racks of tortillas too, so will not leave you hanging for those. There is a meat counter with actual butchers. It is small but with good inventory. I got some house made chorizo here that I liked much better than the ready made ones in packages. But you do have to use it within a couple of days as it doesn't have all the preservatives the packaged ones have. And in that meat counter there is also a heat lamp area where they do homemade chicharon, which I tried once and found they are pretty legit. They use whole strips of pork belly and fry it to a serious crisp. Seasoned perfectly with just salt and the strips have big strips of meat along with crisp fat and skin. Similar to lechon kawail (Filipino) but this is just more crisp/dry. But to get this warm is so good, much better warm than cold as the fat is more unctuous when warm. I love this cut into smaller pieces then dipped in either a hot sauce or a spicy garlic vinegar. Serious draw here for me. I think they put these out by 10 am and by noon to 1pm they run out, a local told me. So as a store, I think they are a solid 3*, they are more convenient than they are impressive. But the cashiers are pretty nice and that chicharon station, oh man I just got to give them extra points for that. Trust

This seems to be the business model these days for the local culinary talent in the Bay Area. My…read morerecent dining journeys have been provided by Pastel, a food consolidator in the Bay Area. Looking up their makers, I came open this East Bay business. My friend actually tried his food first, recommending a savory item she enjoyed. After reading his background and profile, I studied his menu. That pastry was not available on that week so I ordered two things, one savory and one sweet. I started by reheating a tomato garlic brioche (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=ZneOR5W8HUhnQvfdfrQy3g&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q); I enjoyed this as the dough was chewy with a good bite. The sun dried tomatoes were dominant over the garlic flavor which was fine by me. A few days later, I tried his dark chocolate concha (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=_eRkfeFLwaQZe_LsV6Qgrg&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q); I didn't enjoy this as much but it was probably my fault for a. waiting too long and b. being lazy in not reheating it. The pastry shell became dry and the chocolate hardened like a candy bar. If you order this, a. eat it fresh and b. reheat it. I ordered my friend's choice and tried it the following work, the BBQ pork brioche (https://www.yelp.com/user_local_photos?select=3THZPwXDFA0W-zUa59UxbA&userid=saJuyv784apZzH--psHZ3Q). Perhaps my friend's recommendation heightened my expectations as I only found this to be okay. I will continue to look at his menu and hope to find something that wows me.

And then I ran into Billy at a farmers market. He offered me a cookie. I refused citing my dietary restrictions. Turns out, his cookies are gluten free, dairy free, and made with low glycemic coconut sugar. And they are delicious! Not the most delicious gluten-free cookie, but the most delicious cookie I've ever eaten, hands down. I bought six and finished them all within the weekend. That same week I lost 3lbs. I've been eating the cookies almost weekly since I discovered them and still managed to lose 40lbs on my diet. Seriously, if you told me I could stuff my face with cookies and still lose weight, I would have laughed. But that's what happened. I should also mention that his pizza and neatloaf are pretty amazing as well. Someday soon I'm going to try the chocolate pie. But the cookies...I love the cookies. You will too.
