The Los Angeles Times Food Bowl is excited to celebrate the winner of the 2021 Gold Award, Guelaguetza.
About this event
Each year, the L.A. Times Gold Award is given to a California restaurant in honor of culinary excellence and expanding the notion of Southern California cooking. The award celebrates intelligence, innovation, and brilliance as well as an appreciation for aesthetics, culture, and the environment.
The L.A. Times Food Bowl, Presented by City National Bank is excited to celebrate the 2021 Gold Award winner Guelaguetza, selected by L.A. Times Arts & Entertainment Editor Laurie Ochoa, wife of the late Jonathan Gold.
Guelaguetza first opened its doors in 1994 by immigrant husband and wife Fernando Lopez and Maria Monterrubio. Since then, they have showcased the best of their family recipes and stay true to authentic Oaxacan ingredients. Today, Mr. and Mrs. Lopez are retired and have paved the way for their children, Paulina, Fernando Jr, Elizabeth and Bricia Lopez. This new generation of Oaxaqueños has taken upon themselves the responsibility of continuing their family’s restaurant success and also expanding its legacy. They launched their online retail store where fans can purchase Guelaguetza’s famous mole and signature Michelada mix. The Lopez’s have undoubtedly become ambassadors to Oaxacan cuisine in Los Angeles.
Join us in celebrating Guelaguetza for a festive evening filled with food, drink, and live music on Monday, July 12.
