Consuming WebApi in MVC3

Question

Using WebApi, what is the best way to consume a service in a MVC client?

If the response comes back as:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<ArrayOfContact 
    xmlns:xsd="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema" 
    xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance">
    <Contact>
        <Id>1</Id>
        <Name>Bilbo Baggins</Name>
    </Contact>
    <Contact>
        <Id>2</Id>
        <Name>Frodo Baggins</Name>
    </Contact>
</ArrayOfContact>

How can I take that, get my Contacts out and list them in a MVC3 Razor View using @Model?

There's a lot of examples online for the latest preview of WebApi but I can't find any that go a step further and show a client consuming the service, say using WebClient.

Thanks,

R.
