More Flavor: Discussion Is There Such a Thing as LA Cuisine?

Those who think the phrase "Los Angeles cuisine" is an oxymoron need to wake up and smell the cooking. This Zócalo-organized, Hammer-hosted event, moderated by LA Weekly food critic Jonathan Gold, takes on the question of LA's culinary culture. The answer to the title's query is a resounding "Yes" — LA cuisine embraces a diverse array of styles, from innovative Americana to designer sushi to world-class Tex-Mex. Led by a panel of premier local chefs, including Michael Cimarusti (Providence), Octavio Becerra (Palate Food & Wine), and KCRW's Good Food host Evan Kleiman (Angeli Caffe), the discussion chews on current trends and takes a look at where the city's food industry is heading.
