For those of you with a sweet tooth, the latest craze on the West Side is the new frozen yogurt sensation, Pinkberry. The concept is simple - frozen yogurt - that tastes like yogurt - with fresh fruit toppings. Just a few months ago, you needed to drive across town, to wait in line at one of the few locations to get your fix. But now, thanks to a rapidly growing franchise, Pinkberry is showing up all over the West Side.
It seems the Pinkberry folks know the most important thing in real estate - location, location, location! The newest stores have opened on some of the best neighborhoods: Abbot Kinney in Venice, Montana Avenue in Santa Monica, Brentwood, and Beverly Hills.
If you're looking for you next home, it seems you can't go wrong if there is a Pinkberry nearby.

Wikipedia is an amazing resource. It's got pages on just about every person, place or thing you could every think of. I've put together some wikipedia links the westside neighborhoods. It's a great way to familiarize yourself with the lay of the land as well as some local history.
