THIS WEEK IN THE TEST KITCHEN – Celebrating Mexico’s Bicentennial

THIS WEEK IN THE TEST KITCHEN – Celebrating Mexico’s Bicentennial

This week at Test Kitchen we celebrate Mexico’s Bicentennial, curated by Guelaguetza’s Bricia Lopez.

Wednesday, October 27th and Thursday, October 28th Test Kitchen will host Baja California Chefs Diego Hernandez, Ismene Venegas, and Guillermo Barreto. Baja California is perhaps the greatest place for contemporary Mexican dining in all of Mexico. Its unique products from land and sea are abundant, and in many cases, not found in any other part of Mexico. As a result, Baja has lured and cultivated a group of maverick chefs that are redefining Mexican cuisine and expanding its rich vocabulary. These three accomplished chefs from Baja’s Baja Cuisine and Baja Med movement will be serving a $50 prix fixe menu at Test Kitchen.

It was visits to a Tolucan market at a young age that set Diego Hernandez’s course towards becoming a chef. Chef Diego started working under Benito Molina at the age of 18, then at Pangea in Monterrey with Guillermo Gonzalez, and finally off to Mexico City where he learned the vanguard of Mexican gastronomy under Enrique Olvera. Chef Diego Diego Hernandez worked in the best kitchens in modern Mexican cuisine, received a degree from the Culinary Art School in Tijuana, in 2007 earned the honor of being named best young chef of Baja California and opened his own restaurant, Restaurante Uno.

Chef Guillermo Barreto just took over the picturesque El Sauzal restaurant formerly occupied by a Oaxacan restaurant at the Viento wine shop, just minutes before you hit Ensenada. The passionate and easy going Chef Guillermo Barreto owns La Piazza, a successful Italian restaurant in Mexicali, and now wants to be where the action is, in Ensenada. Like many chefs in Baja, he sources the finest ingredients, and deftly marries the Mediterranean and Mexican flavors in his restaurant. You might even call his style of cooking Mex-Italian.

Chef Ismene has cooked at Restaurante del Parque in Ensenada for the past two years. Only in Baja can you find a pizza of quelites, the prized wild greens of Mexican gastronomy, cooked in a wood fired oven of adobe, a contemporary presentation of a Sinaloan aguachile(raw seafood cooked in lime and chili), and panzanella.


Friday, October 29th and Saturday, October 30th Michelin Star Chef Joshua Gil will be cooking a five course preview of Bricia Lopez’s new restaurant, Mitla. Mitla will bring modern Oaxacan cuisine to Los Angeles, merging tradition with nouveau technique. The $55 menu includes Sopa De Guias, Clayuda, Barbacoa de Guajolote (braised turkey), Amarillo de Venado (venison and yellow mole), and Niño Envuelto (guava sponge cake).  Chef Gil’s menu will also include $5 bar bites, including Chorizo and Oaxacan Cheese, Croquettes, Mole Drummets, Cemita – Cecina, and Tostada de Chapulines.

Walk-Ins Welcome!

No reservation? No problem! To accommodate everyone who wants to join us, including last minute diners, we always hold a few tables for walk-in guests.

9 After 9 Cocktails (& Special Bar Bites Menus)

Special Bar Bite Menus are available at the bar every night during dinner service and change with every chef. Walk-ins are always welcome at the bar and in the dining room.


Ricardo Zarate at Mo-Chica

Test Kitchen’s Resident Chef, Ricardo Zarate will be cooking a special $35 six course tasting menu at Mo-Chica this Wednesday, October 27th. The tasting menu will include Cancha Peruvian Pop Corn, Aguadito de Choros, Causa Rellena, Ceviche de Camarones, Ocopa de Camarones, Chicharron con Lentejas, and Trés Leches.

Taste of the World Festival – Downtown Los Angeles

We are sorry to report… This Event has been postponed.

Global cuisine goes Downtown at the Taste of the World Festival

Five continents get re-created in one movie studio at Taste of the World Festival, a massive food free-for-all the first weekend in November.

The 22-acre Los Angeles Center Studios is transformed into an EPCOT for the palate, as restaurants, caterers, and food trucks serve tapas-sized plates for $1-7. And there’s no heavy entree fee: it’s only $10.

Mexican to Japanese, but this is a chance to check out cuisine not normally found in LA.

Restaurants bring far-flung dishes from Romania, Holland, and (celebrate the miners!) Chile while the Chomp Chomp and Ta Bomb food trucks bring Singaporean and Brazilian street specialties.

Besides the main draw — the grub — there are World’s Fair-style pavilions on international technology and tourism (promising travel deals for attendees).

Los Angeles Taste of the World Festival
Fri-Sun, November 5-7

Mel Gibson’s Ex tells all

Apart from her harrowing ordeal with Mel Gibson, Oksana Grigorieva described Gibson as a lunatic talking to himself while frothing in the mouth. Strong accusations from the Russian born musician who has a baby daughter with Gibson. After declaring that she was scared for her life Grigorieva narrated every inch of her relationship with Gibson as though she had gone through hell. It also included Gibson hitting her while holding their baby and threatening to kill her. She also claimed that Gibson was going through a depressive state and if not holding his Catholic faith above himself he would have committed suicide long ago. Documenting every threat he received from Gibson through his calls had given her some kind of leverage but to Gibson she was merely extorting him which Grigorieva falsely denied. The whole fiasco is under investigation and observers say it could really turn into a circus what with Grigorieva being hailed as an extortionist while Gibson a domestic wife beater. In the end Gibson proposed to pay his former girlfriend $15 million to turn over all the evidences while a judge has determined Gibson’s child support payments should be adjusted from $5, 000 to $20,000.
