About the eminent domain debacle, Surfas responded:
"We hope to have some time before we have to make any decisions. Right now, we are waiting for Culver City to give us a time frame and if this is anything like other City projects, it may take up to a year or even longer. Surfas has no intention of going out of business and we will not be cutting back in any phase of our operation including the web , commercial design and installation of industrial kitchens, food development and equipment supply, store presence etc..
Our company is strong and will continue on the same growth pattern we have always set. We have been in several different locations over the (almost) 70 years since we opened the doors in 1937. All changes in our past have been exciting and this one will be too. You will find the only difference may be that we will be located at another address perhaps next year or in 2008. If Culver City doesn't want us, another city will. As soon as we have more information, we will post it on our website.
Thank you for your interest."

It's amazing to me Culver City would try to push out just the type of business it claims to want in the area. If Surfas has to relocate, please let it be in Los Angeles at least!
We want them in Silver Lake!!!
We'd gladly take them up here in Santa Barbara!
A place like Surfas should look in Westchester. There is an old antique mall two doors down from Trader Joes on the SW corner of Manchester and Sepulveda going to waste which would be perfect and there is plenty of parking. Lets bring it to an area where people love to cook. Also in El Segundo on Sepulveda North of Rosecrans they are putting in a huge shopping complex. They would fit in nicely there. I would hate to loose them to another area since I have been using them for the last 20+ years. Let Culver City become known for their fast food "restaurants" since they don't deserve Surfas!!!
