Chinese Farm to Table Pop-Up

Chinese Farm to Table Pop-Up
For the first time ever, enjoy Chinese farm to table menu from Brooklyn's own Local Roots!

Be the first in LA to try Brooklyn's own Local Roots' Chinese farm to table menu! Featuring our founder's favorite childhood dishes, ingredients will be sourced from LA's best local farms with sustainable growing practices. We're so excited to bring our menu to the West Coast for the first time.

There are two dates for this pop up! May 10 + May 11.

 Menu:

Tea Eggs - tea brined pasture raised eggs

Sauteed seasonal greens

Fan Tuan - Chinese sticky rice roll

Vegan Mapo Tofu - Tofu in a fiery red sauce

Zha Jiang - Heritage ground pork sauteed in a sweet red bean paste. Vegan version available

Red bean filled biscuits with ube powder

Each table will have a jar of Sichuan Chili Crisp thanks to our friends and fellow Asian female owned small business Fly By Jing. Be sure to check out the entire wine list at the venue, Melody Wine Bar.

RSVPing to this event does not guarantee you a table and it is not a reservation. It allows Chef Wen-Jay to plan accordingly and will send you a reminder about this exciting event. First come first serve from 5pm til we sell out :)
