Spring Equinox Brunch with Chefs Taren & Vilda

EXPERIENCE LA’S MID-CITY FARM IN FULL SPRING GLOW

We still can’t believe a place like this exists in the middle of Los Angeles. Thanks to Vivi, we get to experience it together at the start of spring.

Little City Farm is a family-run organic farm tucked into Mid-City LA, with chickens roaming the grounds, herbs growing nearby, and a large family-style table set right in the middle of it all.

You’ll arrive to the farm in the morning light, grab a cup from Vivi’s coffee bar, and wander the grounds before sitting down to a thoughtful brunch that celebrates the season, the farmers who grow our food, and the pleasure of gathering around the table.

Vilda and Taren first connected through the magic of an online algorithm that brought like-minded chefs together, eventually leading to a week-long blind date in Charleston, South Carolina. They cooked together, visited rice farms, stretched mozzarella, and discovered a shared passion for ingredients grown with care and food made with intention. That friendship and shared approach to cooking sits at the heart of this brunch.

HOW IT WORKS

Two menus will be offered, each featuring three items (two savory, one sweet).

Dining solo? One menu will be perfectly satisfying.
Dining together? Order both menus to taste the full spread.

Expect a decadent and nourishing menu of daytime delights, featuring meticulously sourced and intentionally prepared ingredients inspired by the first flush of Spring produce and the farmers that make it all possible. There will be beans, waffles, greens, and more!

Vivi’s NAD+ coffee bar will be flowing with signature bevys that have the Taren and Vilda touch. All dishes are gluten and refined sugar free. Because the menus are fixed, we cannot guarantee accommodations for other dietary restrictions.
