On the first episode of the Apprentice, we were introduced to the candidates and watched as the two initial project managers picked their teams. The first tasks were two of the more popular car washes in West Hollywood.
 | Heidi's Team had stewardship of the Santa Palm car wash on the corners of Santa Monica and, uh, Palm, in West Hollywood. During the episode, they mentioned that this was a Judy Garland friendly part of town, and that is true; Santa Palm is in the heart of Boy's Town. This car wash is usually very busy, but if you are visiting LA and just have to see where Heidi got to work, you'll be happy to know that there is a Coffee Bean and a Starbuck's within a block. If you feel like you want to get a drink while your new Miata gets detailed and show off your new cutoffs at the same time, Fiesta Cantina is also nearby. All of this takes place with the Pacific Design Center casting a wide, fabulous shadow as it dominates the skyline |
 | Frank's Team was stationed at the Sunset Car Wash just west of Fairfax in West Hollywood. Although less than two miles from where Heidi's team got to work, this car wash represents the other side of West Hollwyood, the Sunset Strip. You can also suspect a long wait here, but Baja Fresh is just across the street, giving you a chance to eat your Burrito Ultimo all while watching the undocumented workers detail your car. The Coffe Bean nearby always features plenty of wannabe actors reading scripts and writers tapping away at their laptops, perhaps hoping that somebody from the Director's Guild of America, just on the other side of Sunset, will take notice. However, nestled between the DGA and the Rite Aid on the corner is The Griddle Cafe, perhaps the best breakfast place in town. |

Awesome. The residences are somewhere up on Mulholland.

I'm keeping my fingers crossed for the title of B-Side's recap being "There's an old African saying that says You're Fired"

Dude, you’ve cut a culinary swath through LA.! It’s good that there was a Starbucks close to Heidi’s carwash…because when I see her face, I think “I want a Carmel Macchiato”.
