Girard Gourmet at 7837 Girard Ave in La Jolla's Village, 92037, has operated as a farm-to-table café and gourmet market since 1987 under Belgian owners François and Diana Goedhuys, who source organic produce from their own Julian farm. The deli case is the move: chicken curry salad, house pâté sandwiches, savory quiche, and lasagna share space with raspberry linzer cookies and Mexican wedding cookies. Breakfast, lunch, and early dinner are all served. Open daily 7am–6pm — stop in before the pastry case sells out.
