This snug Echo Park market is a gem for organic produce and gourmet finds, with a mindful selection of local ingredients and a great deli.
"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!" - Ludlow Kingsley
"I once left Cookbook with five packages of their prosciutto. Maybe that was overkill, or perhaps pure hubris. Either way, it was worth it. We haven’t been here yet, but want you to know this spot exists." - Team Infatuation
"The chefs continue to operate Son of a Gun on West 3rd Street, Jon & Vinny’s (multiple locations), Helen’s Wines (multiple locations), and Cookbook Market in Echo Park and Highland Park." - Cathy Chaplin
"The all-day vegan restaurant in Echo Park has brand new sidewalk seating going along both Echo Park Ave. and Delta St." - brett keating
