A Grocery Store That Takes 'Local Food' to Its Logical Extreme
Everything San Francisco's Local Mission Market offers, unless it's raw, will be made in-house.
Yaron Milgrom owns two restaurants in San Francisco's Mission District: Local Mission Eatery, a restaurant, bakery, and cookbook library that serves as gourmet sandwich shop by day and intimate dinner spot by night, and Local's Corner, a seafood-centric neighborhood cafe that's Michelin-approved. Now, he's about to turn the idea of an urban neighborhood grocery on its head with the soon-to-open Local Mission Market, in which everything, unless it's raw, will be made in-house.
Yes, really. I consider my current shopping list for pasta puttanesca, and Milgrom answers back: house-made pickles, olives, cured fish and meat, pastas, and cheese are all available.
