L.A.’s Outdoor Cinema Food Fest

There’s no mistaking this summer event because it’s all in the name: Outdoor Cinema Food Fest L.A.

Billed as “the ultimate picnic” with “no basket required,” here’s the breakdown:

Outdoor – Downtown’s Exposition Park is where most take place; Grand Hope Park and Beverly Hills’ La Cienega Park will also host.

Cinema – Swingers, The Big Lebowski… View schedule online.

Food Fest – 60 food trucks on rotation throughout July and August.

Among the 10 trucks set for this weekend, I’m saving room for a cone from Lake Street Creamery, L.A.’s transient ice cream makers who have our streets a-buzz this summer for Donut-flavored scoops. According to their Twitter page, there’s a new flavor named Don Draper; like the man himself, this flavor could be yours only if you can track him down.
