Bonita Farmers Market-smoked tri tip

mmm-yoso!!! welcomes you back.  This is another post written by Cathy (because Kirk is elsewhere, with His Missus, preparing/researching some postings).

Recently, a dear client mentioned a memorable sandwich he and his wife had for lunch from this local market.  It's located in the same parking lot as Hans and Harry's in Bonita.2E096A5B-35A7-4977-B74D-193A258B9DCC

A wonderful sandwich and great neighborhood store.
