On this episode of The LA Food Podcast, we welcome LA Times critic Bill Addison to go deep on his freshly dropped list of the 101 Best Restaurants in California. After years of dissecting his LA-only lists, we finally get to ask: what makes a spot one of the best in the state? Bill takes us behind the scenes of how the guide came together, shares the biggest surprises, and hints at who might quietly hold the crown for best restaurant in California.
Then in Part 2, we recap Top Chef Season 22 with Nancy Dasilva and Bits Nicholas of Compliments to the Chef and content creator Jessie Evans AKA Jessie Eats—including who won this season’s Top Chef fantasy pool.
Plus: we celebrate LA’s newly crowned Michelin-starred restaurants, including Providence and Somni, now the city’s only 3-star destinations.
And don’t miss the trailer for our new pod Let It Rip, the unofficial companion to The Bear on FX, dropping July 1.
