Times Description

A Leimert Park institution for 20 years, this diverse, independent bookstore stocks a particularly strong selection of titles relating to African American culture.

Once you've worked up an appetite looking through the literature, step out for some eats: grab a hot dog or a veggie burger at Earle's Grill; some house-smoked, finger-lickin' ribs (and a side of hot links) at Phillips Barbecue; or some jerk chicken at Ackee Bamboo Jamaican Cuisine. All are within a couple of blocks of Eso Won.
