Door Dash is celebrating mom-and-pop diners, neighborhood cafés, and local restaurants on Saturday and Sunday.

Participants include Jon & Vinny’s, Bay Cities Italian Deli, Uncle Paulie’s Deli, Dave’s Hot Chicken, Chicas Tacos and Lazy Daisy of Beverly Hills. That means you can get Chicas Tacos’ famous beer-battered fish taco with Caesar salad on top for free or just an excuse to get those famous braised meatballs from Jon & Vinny’s for a bit less.

A lineup of holiday workshops are scheduled for the next few weeks at the Playa Vista culinary retail shop Tripli-Kit at RUNWAY, as well as the 2nd annual gingerbread house competition. The store is owned and curated by Top Chef season 14 winner Brooke Williamson and her husband and co-owner Nick Roberts.
