The Final Table stars come together with artist and journalist Erica Berger at Otium for an evening filled with discussion on the inherent political nature of food, focusing on the ubiquitous avocado, presented through art and a panel of industry insiders. Start with canapes & a welcome drink on the patio lounge, leading to a four course family-style dinner with optional wine pairings.

Conceived by award-winning journalist Erica Berger, “Avocado Rush: a day in LA” will be the first time competing restaurants have collaborated with an artist in such a way to send a message: eating is more than just eating– it is ultimately a political choice – affecting people, the environment, and human well-being. There’s always a connection between what we eat, the environment, politics, and people. It’s finally time to bring this to light and further the complex but important conversation.
