  • Summary

  • Join us for a culinary adventure through the vibrant streets of Los Angeles with the multifaceted actor, comedian, writer, and director, B.J. Novak, where we explore the city's diverse food scene and our shared enthusiasm for food debates. We kick off with a trip down memory lane, reminiscing about B.J.'s early days in the stand-up comedy scene and late-night hangouts at Canter's. Listen in as we discuss LA's eclectic mix of cuisines and proclaim it the best food city in the U.S., thanks to its innovative restaurateurs and cultural dynamism. We dish out recommendations from the esteemed trifecta of Saffy’s, Bavel, and Bestia, and give a special shout-out to the jazz burger at Jitlada. We also discuss the innovative concept behind B.J. Novak’s company, Chain—a startup aiming to revolutionize the way we perceive chain restaurant cuisine. As we look forward to the next pop-up event with Chain, we also touch on B.J.'s film "Vengeance," highlighting the interplay between food, film, and American culture.
