"You park your car inside and the entire wash machine moves around you. I find it very disorienting, and have to keep checking that I'm in park :). Find a fixed spot on the wall to look at."

"Great for quick wash when you don't want to spend an afternoon getting a full wash and wax. Starts at $7, bring towels to dry your car yourself. Line can be long, but wash itself is fast."

"This market happens on Wednesday and Saturday mornings until early afternoon."

"A few miles outside Santa Monica, but had to include it on my list. Order one of the combo platters to taste a bunch of different dishes. Healthy, unique, flavorful. All-you-can-eat lunch deal."

"Sign up for their mailing list to get special deals including a free entree on your birthday! Great place to take omnivore friends because the food is really good (not just "good for vegan food")."

"It's best to go often and without a specific goal. Just browse and hope to find something great and unexpected."
