We have sorely missed our annual food events, perhaps none more so than Los Angeles magazine’s “Food Event.” The strolling feast returns Sunday, October 15, 2021 from 2-5PM. Located at the gorgeous Saddlerock Ranch in the Mailibu Hills, the afternoon offers tastes from 40 of the best chefs in LA, plus drinks from LA sommeliers and bartenders, and demos from talented local chefs.
Los Angeles magazine’s 15th annual “epicurean extravaganza” features some of our favorite restaurants, including the Michelin-starred classic, Michael’s Santa Monica, Madre! Oaxacan food, Hotville Chicken, Poppy + Rose, STK, Lunetta, Creme Caramel, and Magpies Soft Serve. We are excited to try dishes from Conservatory, Cult from the 3rd Street Promenade, and Venice’s steakhouse, Win-dow. Other temptations are the wood-fired delicacies from Etta, and Spanish-influenced cuisine from Woodland Hill’s Gasolina,
Guests will also enjoy craft cocktails from House of Suntory and Hornitos. In addition, refreshments (both with and without alcohol) will be flowing freely from Cadillac, Pismo Beach, Don Francisco’s Coffee, Suja Juice, Jiant hard kombucha, Rove, Malibu Family Wines, and Wrath Vineyards, amongst others.
With Autumn approaching, this may be your last opportunity to wear that gorgeous sundress, although stretchy pants might be more practical. Do wear flats so your heels don’t sink into the grass, and we recommend closed-toe shoes, because you may be parking in a pasture. It is a working ranch. And yes, there are horses, and camels, and even zebras. Must be 21 and older. No pets allowed unless they are horses, camels or zebras.
“Per California Department of Public Health (CDPH) guidelines, attendees are recommended to be fully vaccinated or obtain a negative COVID-19 test before arriving at the event. The Food Event is held entirely outdoors. Attendees are recommended to wear a mask upon entering the event and when not actively eating or drinking.
