Get Scrappy at Wildcraft Culver City
According to the British Institution of Mechanical Engineers, as of 2013, half of all food worldwide is wasted! Food waste happens from production to processing to consumption and we all need to do our part to reduce this waste. And, that is exactly what Wildcraft in Culver City is doing. A modern Italian tavern, Wildcraft uses fresh seasonal vegetables and their pizza and pasta is handmade. However, there are scraps left over when they are cutting pasta or pieces of vegetables that typically get thrown away. But, not anymore! Not only is Executive Chef Bryant Wigger using the scraps in the kitchen and the bar, but you can enjoy them during happy hour....or shall we say "Scrappy Hour"?
As the saying goes, "one man's trash is another one's treasure." What we may see as scraps, Chef Wigger doesn't see as waste and utilizes kitchen scraps in some of the cocktails and happy hour offerings.

First frozen yogurt stores, then wine bars, then cupcake shops seemed to pop up at an alarming rate around the city. Now it's time for the Cheese Revolution! As cheese stores have been opening on the east side of Los Angeles, there are still only a handful on the westside - Beverly Hills Cheese Shop, Andrew's Cheese Shop, Wally's Cheese Box.....and now the Wheel House Cheese Shop!
