Andy Doubrava (Rustic Canyon) & Small Black

On today’s episode, we sit down with one of our favorite LA chefs, Andy Doubrava, who currently oversees the kitchen of Santa Monica’s Rustic Canyon.  We chat about the restaurant’s role as an enduring neighborhood spot, his deepening relationship with farmer’s market purveyors and his advice for what he looks for in hiring chefs. We also head into our archives for a perfect Sunday set from Small Black.
