What People are Saying
Looks like an awesome food film screening! "Mayor Garcetti invites you and your families to attend a screening of City of Gold, on June 16th at 7:00pm. A Q+A with Jonathan Gold and the film's producer, Laura Gabbert, will follow the screening.
The film is a love letter to Los Angeles, chronicling Pulitzer Prize-winning restaurant critic Jonathan Gold’s deep and complex relationship with the food and culture of his city, Los Angeles.
Gold has long been known for his robust writing about the hidden culinary treasures in LA; he was one of the first critics to review small family owned restaurants in far-flung ethnic enclaves with as much care as the haute cuisine establishments of Beverly Hills.
With a stroke of his pen, he’s changed the lives of countless recent immigrants cooking the food of their homes. The film also explores the rigor, knowledge and compassion that makes Jonathan’s style of criticism stand apart. Jonathan Gold maps Los Angeles through his Odyssey-like quests for new food experiences so that we too can discover and understand our city.
Featured in the film are Roy Choi, David Chang, and Ludo Lefebvre, as well as the chefs and owners behind some of Gold’s favorites: Jitlada (Southern Thai), Guelaguetza (Oaxacan), Meals by Genet (Ethiopian), and Chengdu Taste (Sichuan).
City of Gold offers the rare opportunity to see Los Angeles through the eyes of its foremost cultural writer, and most loyal fan."
