Gifts for Gastronomes at Epicure Imports Warehouse Sale

As the holidays approach, it's time to start thinking about forking over some money for gifts. But if you're like us, there's no way in heck you'll get caught in the Black Friday craziness next week, especially if you want to come out unscathed. If you want to make it out of the holiday shopping season alive, you might consider the Epicure Imports warehouse sale in North Hollywood.
Granted foodies can get a little be rambunctious over reserving a spot a the next Ludo Bites pop-up, but we hardly anticipate the sleepless frenzy that happened last year at Wal Mart.
They're putting steep discounts on all sorts of stuff, from cheeses and vinegars to fancy olive oils and jams tomorrow form 12:30 p.m. - 5:00 p.m., though sadly there won't be any inclusion of foie gras pateas there was last year. If you can't play hooky from work, they'll be going strong through Saturday too, from 9:30 a.m. - 2:00 p.m.
