Ok, we live QUITE in from of Vons, so that comes pretty handy, but when we happen to be needy for some raw, natural & healthy products we go to RA.
We love it because it's soon less fancy than Whole Foods ( unless you're using the WF location in Venice to do celebrity cruising: seriously, that's where I take my friends so they can experience Liam Hemsworth sipping a tea)), Oh...also...if you're a guy, well... WF has the strongest concentration of stunning chicks strolling down the aisles...as if paying a fortune for your muffin wasn't enough for your guilt), and the staff is SO ACKNOWLEDGED you wanna be their friend forever.
They have quite a hot/cold food bar, too, including organic rotisserie chicken)

So::: I don't know aboutof the Wizard of Oz' impact on your life, but to me, DT Culver City means THIS HOTEL.
This is were the ENTIRE crew of that movie stayed while filming !
You can walk in a super cozy and retro lounge which serves as bar and informal bistro.
You can spend the happy hour there and if you're lucky enough to enjoy a gloomy afternoon sitting by the fire and listening to live Jazz, yes, you're having quite a day)
