The city of Los Angeles had a great year in their quest to redefine the epicurean experience of this city as one that is nationally recognized as a top dining destination.

From world-renowned chefs such as Thomas Keller, Jose Andres, Nobu Matsuhisa and Tom Colicchio all opening up new restaurants to the advent of the roach coaches, our dining takes its cues from the melting pot of people it serves.

Pulitzer Prize-winning food writer for the LA Weekly, Jonathan Gold has a nice little commentary in the LA Times about the year in food in Los Angeles. Read it HERE.

Also, be on the lookout for the 2nd Annual LA Weekly Gold Standard Food Event taking place February 28th at the Peterson Automotive Museum. Jonathan Gold personally curates all the restaurants himself, bringing to life his writings on our food scene. They have yet to announce anything formal, but LA Weekly gave us a sneak preview of the line-up and it’s definitely worth taking note of.
