About FOOD BOWL
In May
2017, the first FOOD BOWL was introduced in Los Angeles to bring together L.A.'s best
bars, cafes, chefs, markets, and restaurants. Chefs from around the
world including Massimo Bottura, Nancy
Silverton, and Fergus
Henderson converged in L.A. with the mission of bringing
their diverse areas of expertise to L.A.'s growing food and
beverage scene.
After its huge success, FOOD BOWL is back in L.A. this May with
over 200 events, as well as local and international chef
collaborations. A few highly anticipated international guests for
the 2018 L.A. Food Bowl include Gabriela Cámara from Mexico City, New
Zealand's Monique Fiso, and
José Andrés.
