Culver City is home to a lot of fun, esoteric stuff. Two of them happen to be a block away from one another. First, you should get your ass over the to Museum of Jurassic Technology. More on that in a separate area. But know that if you haven’t been to the MJT you have never been to a museum before. Just down the block is India Sweets and Spices. Culver City is home to a diverse Indian and Pakistani population and you would think this means there are tons of Indian restaurants. There’s not, just a few. India Sweets and Spices is a great place to go to challenge your definition of “sweets”. Indian sweets are made from chick peas and pistachios, rather than butter and refined sugar. Each little treat is a surprising taste. You can also get regular lunch-counter style food here, a hearty vegetarian meal for only a couple of bucks. While you’re there, you can also stock up on that quart of Ghee you were missing in your pantry. A counter-served meal here is about four dollars.
