Whole Foods in Palm Desert stocks special items or Where do you buy your Sea Urchin?

We made our first trip to Whole Foods in Palm Desert right after a delicous lunch at Grill-A-Burger on Country Club.  They say, "never go shopping on an empty stomach", and I'm glad we didn't!  We would have busted our budget for sure.  Whole Foods Palm Desert

If you do arrive at Whole Foods in Palm Desert hungry... you are in luck!  They not only have their own pizzeria and deli, they have their own Smokehouse serving up BBQ!

We headed for the specialty items like prosciutto, olives, manshego cheese and then on to the meats and seafood!  I stocked up on steak, ground lamb, albacore tuna, and fresh oysters & clams! We also picked up some Maldon sea salt and Grapeseed oil!

The produce department had a wonderful variety of fruits and veggies including dragonfruit and colored cauliflowers!

Whole Foods in Palm Desert is not a local run for us, and because of this, we won't shop there daily... but it's great to know we have a resource for special items right here in the Coachella Valley!

Check out the sea urchin on display!

Whole Foods is a shopping field trip and I can never get out of that store in under 30 minutes--too much to see and buy.

Kathy,

Very nice, we get our urchins off the pier at the Harbor.  They are shipped to Japan, also.  It is a local industry. A

Kathy - So smart to not go to Whole Foods on an empty stomach!  It's hard for me to be near their cheese section - too many great samples!  : )

Never had sea urchin but I would like to give it a try one of these days.  I hear they are tasty.
