Rossoblu

Rossoblu may be saying goodbye forever as it prepares to close its doors November 1, but that doesn't mean it’s not throwing one hell of a farewell bash—twice! Before chef Steve Samson permanently closes his Downtown L.A. restaurant, he’s inviting some of his favorite culinary collaborators into the kitchen for two family-style dinners. The October 27 lineup includes Gilberto Cetina of Holbox, Josiah Citrin of Mélisse, Neal Fraser of Redbird, Ray Garcia of Broken Spanish Comedor, Suzanne Goin of A.O.C. and David LeFevre of the Arthur J. On November 17, Dave Beran, Maynard Llera, Brad Mathews, Phil Pretty and Jon Yao take over for round two. Both multi-course feasts cost $250 per person, with 10 percent of proceeds benefiting the Independent Hospitality Coalition. One last excuse to eat very, very well at Rossoblu.
