Busy Bee Market

Sandi and I were in San Pedro today buying our first pair of tap shoes. My second thought after the shoes was where to go for lunch. The lady at the store gave us 3 names. One was supposed to be a healthy place so we immediately discarded that idea. Then she mentioned Busy Bee in which Sandi replied that she's had their sandwich at one time and that her plumbers used to drive all the way to San Pedro from Rosecrans to have their food.

O.K. Google: "Where's Busy Bee Market?" in which google gave us directions from where we were; seven minutes away. Close to the market were 2 vans parked in the street and workmen devouring their sandwiches. We finally got to the small market with a counter in the back with all sorts of meat.  As soon as you walk in the market, you inhale all the deliciousness in the air.

We were 4th in line but by the time it was our turn, there was a long line behind us. It was our lucky day! Sandi ordered the Roast Pork with cheese and I had the Meatball with cheese sandwich. They were humongous and messy. We were planning to eat them in the car but it was impossible. We ended up having them at my house. We shared both and left 1/2 of each for later as we were stuffed. They were both unbelievably delicious. I very rarely get excited over any sandwich and this was truly excitable! The pictures below does not show the full size of the sandwich; just wanted to take closeups to show the meat.

Busy Bee Market is located at 2413 South Walker Street in San Pedro, California.
