This year, L.A.'s lineup of swanky food events got a newbie in the All Star Chef's Classic, a four-day series of dinners, tasting events and a kid's cooking class. This coming March, the event returns to L.A. Live, and tickets are on sale today. 

The event, which is put on by Alice in Events, LLC's Lucy Lean and Krissy Lefebvre, will take place March 11-14. Talent includes Ludo Lefebvre, Nancy Silverton, Michael Cimarusti, Jon Shook and Vinny Dotolo, Jonathan Waxman, Wylie Dufresne, Josiah Citrin, and Suzanne Goin.

You can see the whole events schedule at the All Star Chefs website, but highlights include a French Masters Dinner featuring “France's most acclaimed chefs,” a similar event with British chefs, an American Masters Dinner with many of our hometown heroes doing the cooking, and a pie cooking class for kids lead by Fonuts' Waylynn Lucas. Many of the events take place in “kitchen stadium,” a setup that will remind you of reality cooking television. 

There are also tasting events to complement the lineup of sit-down affairs. 

Tickets for events range from $75 to $425. Get more info and purchase tickets here.
