Olivetta and The Draycott
Healthcare workers have been working extremely hard throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, so these two LA businesses teamed up to help give back to those who tirelessly work to help others. Olivetta, a European-style restaurant in West Hollywood, and The Draycott, a Californian and British restaurant in Palisades Village have started a campaign called “You Give, We Cook, They Eat.” The campaign’s goal is to raise money to make meals for healthcare workers. To do this, they created a
GoFundMe. With these donations, Olivetta and The Draycott are able to make and deliver meals to hardworking healthcare workers at numerous hospitals in LA, such as Cedars-Sinai Medical Center, UCLA Medical Center Santa Monica, UCLA Westwood, Children’s Hospital LA, and St. John’s Hospital. They have also delivered meals to people who are in self-isolation and to the elderly who cannot go out and get their own food. So far, their campaign has raised over $40,000 of their $50,000 goal. That’s a lot of meals for the workers in our community!
Crossroads Kitchen

Located in West Hollywood on Melrose and Sweetzer, Crossroads Kitchen serves completely meatless Mediterranean meals. The restaurant prides itself on providing flavorful food that is adored by vegetarians, vegans, and omnivores alike. They decided to join forces with Support and Feed to give back to the LA community.
