If there is time to take a real lunch break, Earl's is one of my favorite go-tos. There is always so much that I want to buy! In addition to their rotating menu of salads and other entrees, there is plenty to browse between the cheese case, wine & beverages section, and shelves of assorted goods.
From their lunch menu (which again, constantly changes), some of my favorites have been the Harvest Salad, Buddha Bowl, No. 6 Bowl (grilled beets & duck confit), and a couple of their sandwiches. It's possible to get overwhelmed with the sheer amount of options here, but this grocery adventure is a pleasant mental break from work or school.
