Echo Park

Wedged between the tidal wave of fully engulfed neighborhoods to its west and an unprecedented revival of downtown Los Angeles, Echo Park is in the midst of a rapid makeover—or more accurately put, gentrification. As of December 2015, Echo Park is a vibrant and diverse neighborhood where you'll find historic houses and low-income developments, 6 dollar designer coffee, dollar stores, hipsters, gangs, bike lanes and free 6-day parking on side-streets. It's where the Dodgers play in their stadium and quinceañeras adorn nearby Elysian Park. It's where some of your favorite hit songs from the 70's were written, and some of your favorite new shops and restaurants are—or will be.

If you’re on your way to a dinner party and need fancy cheese and olives in a pinch—this is the place! A lesson in European minimalism, this 500 square-foot neighborhood market offers a hand-picked selection of the finest ingredients one might need to complete any recipe. The market stocks everything from the essentials like milk and eggs, to locally farmed produce, baguettes from Bread Lounge, and a beautiful selection of cheeses. Marta Teegan and Robert Stelzner, the couple behind the green grocer, choose their vendors mindfully, allotting their minimal shelf space solely to vendors who are environmentally and socially responsible. Their deli section features prepared foods made from recipes found in a curated selection of cookbooks also for sale. All this, and a butcher counter!
