LAist's Local Foodstuffs Gift Guide, Holiday 2020
Not even a pandemic can squash the shopping obligations of The Holidays. Since eating and drinking your feelings has been the most popular hobby of 2020, we stuck with the theme.
We will be inhaling fistfuls of cereal while drinking canned wine (don't knock it 'til you've tried it!), but perhaps the people on your holiday list deserve an upgrade — local style.
SoCal proprietors are ready to handle your eclectic gifting tendencies, varying budgets, creative tastes and distinctive personalities.
Or maybe you're only buying presents to maintain the veneer of being a functional human being.
Our holiday gift guide is for you all of you.
And no, it's not all alcohol. Although we could've done that.
- Crazy cookbooks
- Face-melting hot sauces
- Artisanal boba
- Cafe de olla
- Fresh kimchi
- Tamale kits
- Toffee
- Mochi
- Cheese
- Cookies
- Cocktails
Happy holidaze.
