It's a cookie plate that would make Santa swoon: A group of L.A.'s top chefs have teamed up to offer a one-time gourmet "cookie swap," with proceeds benefiting the L.A. Regional Food Bank.
On Sunday, December 4, chefs from each of the six restaurants will be contributing cookies to a collective cookie plate for $15 that will be served at all six restaurants that one night only.
The restaurants include Manhattan Beach's own Manhattan Beach Post, along with Broken Spanish, Rose Cafe, Spago, Sotto and The Bellwether. By ordering the cookie plate, Manhattan Beach residents can enjoy a treat from all of these top restaurants in one place.
