()
This year, Angeleno Magazine's national Food and Travel Editor, Brad A. Johnson, used Twitter to post his picks for the publication's 8th annual Restaurant Awards. The suspense built up 140 characters at a time, but next Sunday the teasing and the excitement will pay off for the honorees and their fans at Chef's Night Out, the food and wine event that celebrates Angeleno's awardees.Drawing top honors were a number of the city's most lauded chefs, pastry chefs, and restaurants, including Restaurant of the Year Hatfield's [LAist Story], Chef of the Year Michael Cimarusti of Providence, runner-up Chef of the Year Ludovic Lefebvre of LudoBites [LAist Story], Best New Chef Michael Voltaggio formerly of The Dining Room at The Langham [LAist Story] and many more.
Join Cimarusti, the Hatfields, Lefebvre, Voltaggio and others for a night of food and drink at the Fairmont Miramar Hotel in Santa Monica where there will be lots to eat and imbibe, as well as live demos. Tickets are $95 (General admission) and $150 (VIP) and can be purchased online. Proceeds from the event go to the LA's Best after-school enrichment program (so, hooray, that ticket price is tax-deductible).
Angeleno Magazine's Chef's Night Out
Sunday August 1 @ 5:30 p.m. (VIP reception @4:30 p.m.)
Fairmont Miramar Hotel & Bungalows, Santa Monica
At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
