The best grocery stores Côte Ouest Etats-Unis

It is easy to see that Californian cuisine, and more generally American cuisine, is much spicier than European cuisine. Under the influence of its Mexican neighbor, chillies are very present and allow to spice up the dishes with taste. Why not leave with one of the typical sauces of this cuisine, which will remind you of these flavors once you return home! You can find all the essentials (marinades, hot sauces, barbecue sauces) in this very popular store in the neighborhood, recognizable by its large windows.

We love the homemade sandwiches from this wine and cheese store. The value for money is unbeatable: LARCHMONT Village Wine, Spirits & Cheese offers tasty, extremely fresh fillings.

Each ingredient is more appetizing than the next. A very good address!

This specialist soda store is a veritable institution. With several hundred references, it has every variety of sweet drink imaginable.
