Over 11 years and 570 episodes, John Rabe and Team Off-Ramp scoured SoCal for the people, places, and ideas whose stories needed to be told, and the show became a love-letter to Los Angeles. Now, John is sharing selections from the Off-Ramp vault to help you explore this imperfect paradise.

Eat-Los Angeles, the guide to all things edible in Southern California, will be joining Off-Ramp to keep you up to date on new and interesting restaurants and food trends. This week, the book and website's editor, Colleen Bates, talks with Off-Ramp's John Rabe and Queena Kim about gastropubs.
If you want to hang out with friends and have a drink and a bite some evening, and have a few people join you and have a few people leave, maybe you don’t want to go to Spago or The Sizzler.
You want a “gastropub,” where the food is good and the beer and wine is tasty and interesting.
Eat-Los Angeles has been checking out the trend, which includes: The Lazy Ox Canteen downtown, Hudson House in Redondo Beach, The Six in West LA, and Bacaro near USC.
