June 11, 2023, from 1:00 pm – 4:00 pm, Taste of the Nation No Kid Hungry brings its 32nd premium food event to Media Park in Culver City. The strolling event features unlimited tastes, sips and desserts from dozens of the best chefs and mixologists in Los Angeles.
Some of our favorite participating restaurants include Angelini Osteria, the definitive LA Italian trattoria from Chef Gino Angelini, B Sweet, with Filipino desserts from Chef Barb Batiste (here’s hoping for an ube dessert!), Chef Wes Avila’s Guerrilla Tacos, Jitlada, with Chef Jazz Singsanong, the most charming chef serving the hottest Thai food in LA, the award-winning Kali, Maple Block Meat Co., Chef Michael Reed and Kwini Reed’s DTLA brunch spot, Poppy + Rose, plus Chefs and Hot Tamales Susan Feniger and Mary Sue Milliken with their newest restaurant, SOCALO. It’s practically a Top Chef women’s reunion with Chef Shirley Chung’s Ms. Chi Cafe, Chef Stephanie Izard’s super buzzy Girl and the Goat, and even season 14 Top Chef winner Brooke Williamson’s Playa Provisions.
One-hundred-percent of proceeds support the No Kid Hungry campaign’s work to end childhood hunger in America by ensuring all children have access to the nutritious meals they need, every day. Tickets for Los Angeles’ Taste of the Nation are $115 for adult General Admission; $35 for kids ages 4 to 16; and kids 3 and under are free. Rain or shine.
