Last fall, Blogger, Josh Lurie of Food GPS brought you progressive dining tours of Santa Monica and Downtown. On the afternoon of Sunday, July 25, it's the continuation of the in-depth exploration of L.A.’s best eating neighborhoods as Food GPS spotlights four great restaurants located on (or just off) Beverly Boulevard. Eva, BLD, MILK and The Golden State are the destinations. Each chef-owner will introduce a plate, treat or drink, and it looks like there will be some great surprises in store. Participants will also be able to learn more about the neighborhood’s history and get to know other Los Angeles food lovers. The walking tour begins at Eva at 3 PM and costs $45 per person, including tax and tip. If you have any questions, please e-mail organizer and tour guide Joshua Lurie at joshua@foodgps.com.

Westside Food Fest to Benefit the Achievable Foundation
July 31, 2010 ~ Saturday ~ 12 - 4 PM ~ $5.00
The Achievable Foundation (Achievable) is teaming up with 12 of LA’s best food truck vendors to provide an afternoon of great food and fun, while helping low-income children and adults with autism and other developmental disabilities. On Saturday, July 31, 2010, from 12–4 P.M., Achievable’s Westside Food Fest will roll onto the campus of Venice High School featuring local favorites Fishlips Sushi, India Jones, Munchie Machine, and Mandoline Grill, among others. Guests can also enjoy live music, a marketplace and resource fair, and valuable raffle prizes.
The purpose of the event is to promote community inclusion and raise money for low-income individuals with developmental disabilities. The Westside Food Fest will prominently feature individuals with developmental disabilities, including Scott Siegel, the lead singer of the headlining band, Arrest My Sister. 100% of gate receipts will directly benefit people with developmental disabilities through Achievable’s health and welfare, specialized adaptive equipment, emergency support, and camp sponsorship programs.
Admission to the event is $5. Advance purchase tickets are on sale at www.achievable.org, with tickets also available on the day of the event.
The Taste of the Beverly Hills is a four-day food, wine, and music extravaganza taking place in Beverly Hills (near the Beverly Hilton Hotel). Chefs from around LA—and the country—are coming together in celebration of what will hopefully become LA’s go-to food and wine festival. Wolfgang Puck, Michael Voltaggio, Jon and Vinny of Animal, Ludo Lefebvre, Walter Manzke, Ted Allen, Scott Conant, and many more, are confirmed to showcase at the event. KCRW’s Jason Bentley is also curating the music lineup and there are some VERY exciting bands in the works (TBD). “Good Food” Host Evan Kleiman is also participating (keep an eye out for her annual pie contest). Chef demos, wine tastings, and LG Electronics’ “Taste of Something Better” amateur chef competition happening LIVE, are just a few of the many exciting events taking place over the weekend.

Just FYI, the Achievable Westside Food Fest is Saturday, July 31st, not Sunday like it says in the headline! :)
So glad we finally have a food fest in the westside. And what a good cause too and such a small fee for a fun day
