Labor Day weekend’s tastiest ticket, the Los Angeles Times Celebration of Food & Wine, is adding more courses of savory fun as Food Network and Cooking Channel join the day-long September 5th culinary bash at the Paramount Pictures Studio Backlot.
“Our new event is designed to give our readers a fresh way to experience the Times’ food and wine expertise they love while sampling the best Southern California has to offer,” said Los Angeles Times Vice President Advertiser Marketing and Events, Anna Magzanyan.
Food Network’s specially designated California lounge will be bordered by The Great Food Truck Race‘s featured trucks, including Southern California competitors Crepes Bonaparte, Nom Nom Truck, Nana Queens and Ragin’ Cajun, and promises an appearance by “The Next Food Network Star’s” Aarti Sequeira and Darrell “Das” Smith. In addition, Cooking Channel’s Ice Cream Truck will provide frozen treats and FoodCrafters‘ Aida Mollenkamp and Everyday Exotic‘s Roger Mooking will be on hand for live demonstrations.
“We’re thrilled to have both Food Network and Cooking Channel personalities participating in such a dynamic event in the California marketplace,” said Food Network’s General Manager/Senior Vice President Programming, Bob Tuschman.
