Taste: Jessica Koslow

You’ve seen her sorrel pesto rice bowl with preserved Meyer lemon and lacto-fermented hot sauce burn up social media, now meet the woman responsible for showing LA’s changing food culture to the world. Award-winning chef Jessica Koslow will join Gizmodo Urbanism Editor Alissa Walker onstage at Taste for a conversation about Koslow’s transformative restaurant, Sqirl, using the toast and jam moment to navigate Los Angeles food policy, the power of Instagram, and brunch as a tool for urban revitalization. And we’ll get a peek at Koslow’s forthcoming cookbook!

Come see Jessica and Alissa, along with Mark Bittman, Ron Finley, and a host of chefs, policy makers, scientists, and thinkers, on where food and design meet. For one day next month, it’s in Los Angeles!
