On today’s episode of The LA Food Podcast, we’re diving into the culinary comeback of Palm Springs. Once dismissed as a “culinary wasteland,” the desert is now attracting big-name chefs like Mary Sue Milliken, Susan Feniger, and Richard Blais — and perhaps no opening captures that momentum better than The Thompson Palm Springs. We explore how this stunning hotel on Palm Canyon is transforming the local dining scene with bold new restaurants like Lola Rose Grande Mezze, Bar Issi, and Hall Napa Valley, plus buzzy food events and chef collabs that are finally giving the Coachella Valley its due.
Plus, in a very special twist, Luca is joined by his wife as guest co-host — and let’s just say she might be coming for Father Sal’s spot.
In Chef’s Kiss Big Miss, we react to the opening of Elon Musk’s Tesla Diner, the In-N-Out heiress Lynsi Snyder’s California exit, the just-announced destination for Top Chef Season 23, and the epic return of LA Chef Con.
Listen to our sister shows Taqueando with Bill Esparza and Let It Rip, and don’t forget to leave us a review.
