Bennett's Ice Cream
Bennett’s Ice Cream is one of the last of a vanishing tradition: Scott Bennett and his staff make their own ice cream from fresh ingredients mixed on the spot (you can watch the process through Bennett’s kitchen window). The result is so fine that Bennett's regularly wins awards (there are Blue Ribbons all over the shop). The flavors are also wonderfully inventive – try Scott’s cabernet sauvignon sorbet or his pumpkin ice cream.

Phil's Deli & Grill
Just like the good old days: great counter seating (or carry away to a patio table) and the perfect diner menu (breakfast, lunch and dinner): huge sandwiches, luscious burgers and hot dogs, and deli fare worthy of New York. The Philly steak sandwich here impresses even natives of that city.

Camper
A 4th generation family business from Mallorca, Spain, Camper Boots & Shoes offers an extraordinary selection of fine footwear – stylish, comfortable, carefully crafted and quite cool – in a Market Plaza shop which is a work of art in its own right. The store is just as colorful and beautiful as the wide range of footwear (men, women, children) it offers.

Gilmore Hot Wheels Tanker
Part of Mattel's 2020 Premium Vintage Oil series, this 1937 "Haulin Gas" Hot Wheels collectible is reminiscent of The Gilmore Oil Company's colorful and historic legacy as a leading distributor of petroleum products on the West Coast. It's a must-have for hot wheels collectors and petrolania enthusiasts.
Gray Gilmore Gas Tee
As the Gilmore Oil Company evolved over the decades, so did its emblems. This charcoal gray, pre-shrunk 50% cotton, 50% polyester ultra-soft, short sleeve tee features TWO of the Company's classic emblems on one great shirt: The "Roar with Gilmore" logo on the front left chest, and "Gilmore Gasoline Monarch of All" logo on the back.
L.A.'s Original Farmers Market Cookbook
By JoAnn Cianciulli
Photographs by Karl Petzke
From its humble beginnings in 1934, L.A.'s Original Farmers Market has become one of the leading destinations in Southern California. And this comprehensive cookbook celebrates the food, people, and history of this Los Angeles landmark. Mexican, Brazilian, Middle Eastern, and old-fashioned American diner fare are all here, among many others. Readers can re-create more than 75 stand-in-line classics like Chilaquiles Verdes from ¡Lotería! Grill, Falafel Sandwiches from Moishe's, and finish up with decadent Chocolate Fudge from Littlejohn's English Toffee House. Vivid photographs and rare archival images bring the Market to life.
7 x 9-1/4 in; 272 pp ; 85 color photographs
