Erewhon is your upscale health-food haven with an impressive selection of organic goodies, scrumptious smoothies, and gourmet grab-and-go meals.
"Dish: Buffalo Cauliflower If there was a way to count how many times I’ve brought up this dish in our team Slack channel, I’m fully confident the Erewhon buffalo cauliflower would be well into the triple digits. Say what you want about this over-the-top, cult-like grocery store, but their hot bar is great and their buffalo cauliflower is a masterpiece. It’s sweet and spicy with just the right amount of crunchy breading on the outside. I truly can’t figure out what makes it taste so much better than other versions (my friend who works there has been sworn to secrecy), but perhaps some things are better left a secret." - brant cox
"“I feel like I could Postmates Erewhon every single day of my life when I’m in LA and fully be happy. The coconut chicken tenders + broccolini + gluten free mac and cheese is my go-to order. I would love to have my own Erewhon smoothie one day. My team and I joke that we all feel immediately healthier just stepping foot into an Erewhon.” " - brennan carley
"Traversing the nine circles of hell or shopping at the original Erewhon in Beverly Grove—is there a difference? We certainly can't find one. If this place got La Brea'd into a prehistoric sinkhole tomorrow, LA would be better for it. In need of a midweek emotional free fall? Try fighting 40 different Range Rovers for ten spots in a parking garage. Want to cry in public? Head to the unregulated hot bar line and watch yoga girl anarchy unfold every day at 6 pm. If you have any remaining hope for humanity, do yourself a favor and never come here." - brant cox, nikko duren, sylvio martins
"One never needs an Erewhon smoothie, except maybe right now. (Note: not all Erewhons are created equal. We can explain.) Don’t get anything with seeds and definitely don’t use a straw. Suction is a big no-no while healing. That means you’ll have to scoop your $20 organic, probiotic, algae-infused smoothie with a spoon. And before you complain about looking dumb in front of the Real Influencers of Erewhon, remember that you shouldn’t take yourself that seriously. You just spent $20 on a smoothie. (A good smoothie, nonetheless.) " - sylvio martins
