Northgate Market

Last weekend we stopped by the Northgate Market in Nestor to pick up a few things...

This used to be a Safeway back in the 80's, then it became El Tigre (I almost typed Le Tigre..."Hold that tiger!")...

This is located off of Beyer and Coronado, underneath the shadow of The Wing (a.k.a. the infamous South Bay makeout spot)...

Got whole wheat tortillas for a "Peking Chicken" recipe, plus ready-made guacamole to eat with chips...

I like that their guacamole already has chopped tomatoes and cilantro in it...

More on the "Peking Chicken" in a future post...

Cool! I remember this place and almost stopped by a few weeks ago. I'll have to make a trip to check it out and maybe pick up some guac.

hi darlene - yeah, remember when it was safeway? we used to buy water from the vending machine (those big old plastic jugs).
