To quote the LA Times’ The Taste: “Labor Day Weekend just got tastier.”

Do your stomach a favor and cancel all your weak sauce BBQ plans for this labor day weekend, instead just head directly to Paramount Movie Studios. There you will find amazing dishes with locally sourced ingredients created by the best of the best of California’s chefs.

The LA Times’ The Taste will feature 5 must see must eat events over the course of 3 days and each day is set up to be perfectly timed so guests can participate in every event.

I personally can not wait to see what new culinary masterpieces the chefs will create with locally sources ingredients. Plus I can’t wait to learn from the Jonathan Gold all about Sustainable Uses for Food Waste.
