LOS ANGELES (UNIVERSAL CITY) – The Oakcrest Market is just down the hill from Universal, on Cahuenga Blvd. West, 
nestled against the hills. If you’re on the Universal lot, sometimes it’s good to get out and see the world. Jailbreak! It’s also one of the closest places to get beer 
. Proprietors Eugene and Kathy are ebullient and will delight you with all the latest neighborhood gossip. Kathy also prepares Korean BBQ at least once a week. Mmm. Check in with them, introduce yourself, and they’ll treat you like the local you are (or aren’t). The reserved parking, of course, is up to your negotiating skills.
Credits: At the very top of the post is a collage with my photo of Oakcrest Market, enhanced with a few other elements from various sources along with my Conan parking sign (except of course for the great official cartoon Conan used sometimes on Late Night and on some Late Night clothing). The plate of BBQ picture is from B-Side Blog . The bottom image is a detail from my illustration for an Oakcrest Market post card.
