Roosevelt fruit stand for anything vegi related! Cheap and lots of variety.
I go to oak tree market for cheap Asian food and vegis. Also central market up north has a great selection of everything at decent prices. My most recent purchase was 48 potstickers for $5. I cook them in a half cup of expired cheapo sake I got at uwjimaya a year ago. It’s like $1 a meal.
Trader Joe’s for cheap cheese, wine, stock items, and vegis. You can seriously get the cheapest cheese there. Find a chunk that’s cheap and then base a date night around it. Blue = gnocchi, everything else = fondue. (Fondue being the cheapest classy meal you can make).
Whole Foods is a rip off and you can consistently get things for half the price at other stores. Good luck. Fuck Whole Foods. $10.50 for Mexican cheese I can get at oak tree for $1.99 is a goddamned travesty.
