In many ways, Lisa Vanderpump is the perfect Real Housewife. For starters, she's actually married. Equally important, she's very, very wealthy. Lisa always manages to be very much involved in the drama, but somehow floats just slightly above the fray, in a cloud of pink silk and diamonds. Perhaps this is because Lisa Vanderpump has a real, offscreen life that she's interested in keeping unsullied: She and her husband Ken earned their wealth in part through opening and managing a slew of successful bars and restaurants—three of which are in the Los Angeles area.
In addition to the obvious meteorological benefits, an upside of being one of the few Jezebel dot com staffers in LA is that I have easy access to these important landmarks: Villa Blanca, SUR and Pump. So I decided to go to all of them in one day. What will I learn about Lisa Vanderpump and the human condition by visiting her restaurants? Probably nothing. I don't claim to be a food critic or even a foodie. I'm just a young woman with a dream, an arsenal of RHOBH knowledge, and the (somewhat) limitless funds furnished by my employer.
So readers, please join me on this expedition, as I attempt to drink from the cup of this Bravo TV Holy Grail. Live with me. Learn with me. Experience what I hope is the first—and certainly the most inane—Lisa Vanderpump Restaurant Crawl.
