About Chef Series Dinner

Showcasing Culinary Excellence Through Our Chefs

Welcome to a new year and a new season of The Chef Series!

We took a couple months off to retool and revamp our Chef Series and this year we are coming back stronger than ever! We have an awesome surprise for you…April’s Chef Series will be featuring The Nest: A Brunch Joint’s Founder Antonio Cortez Appling and Friends. Being that this is the first Chef Series of The Nest’s celebratory 10 Year Anniversary Year Antonio wanted to take the reins and sprinkle his own approach towards gastronomy. Antonio will be inviting his friends from the community, colleagues and neighbors to offer insight and inspiration for his menu.

The Chef Series is a dope night of EATING: an educational and experiential pop up dinner with cooking presentations designed to share The Nest – A Brunch Joint’s unique approach to brunch dining.

This unique dinner series will be celebrating our food through a 6-course prix fixe menu with an (optional) pairing of 6 exclusive Chef Series cocktails and adult beverages for additional purchase. These cocktails and adult beverages are designed to elevate and compliment each dish and handcrafted and curated by our Owner.

If you have been to Chef Series before you understand how we have grown and expanded with each event. We have moved into using more Chef demo’s, themed evenings and diverse chef POV’s in order to enhance your experience. Not to mention enhanced multimedia elements and music from some of the best DJ’s in Southern California!

The Chef Series is now showcasing emerging chef’s from Southern California…and beyond. We are moving into a new era of Chef Series that allows for a broader experience that will bring you evenings that feature multiple points of views and an array of of flavors and cultures. This is a new way to express the diversity of The Nest Group and show you that we do so much more than breakfast and brunch. Equally as important is the opportunity for you to gather as a diverse community around the expression of food and drink. In times like these, community events and celebrating people of all backgrounds (coming together to break bread) is essential to our evolving American experience. It is going to be an amazing night and we want you to be a part of it.

Antonio Appling, Creator & Innovator of The Nest Brand

Welcome to a new year and a new season of The Chef Series!

We took a couple months off to retool and revamp our Chef Series and this year we are coming back stronger than ever! We have an awesome surprise for you…April, July and November’s Chef Series will be featuring The Nest: A Brunch Joint’s Founder, Antonio Cortez Appling and Friends. Being that this is The Nest’s celebratory 10 Year Anniversary Year Antonio wanted to take the reins and sprinkle his own approach towards gastronomy. Antonio will be inviting his friends from the community, colleagues and neighbors to offer insight and inspiration for his menu.

A bit about the Chef…

Antonio has an Afro-Latino background and was born in Ohio…but raised 30 minutes from the Tijuana border in San Diego. He went to college in San Francisco during the mecca of Bay Area food culture in the early 2000’s. He has lived in Los Angeles County for the last 15 years in Long Beach and hopes to bring elements of ALL of these rich traditions to his Chef Series.

What can you expect from The Chef Series?

As always The Chef Series will feature 6 courses highlighting elevated and diverse ingredients. We will have a great DJ providing musical aesthetics and our wonderful ambiance transformed for the event. A great Host will walk you through each course and you’ll have a chance to hear from Antonio offering insight about cooking techniques and inspirations for each dish. If you haven’t been, this is truly a unique evening of education, food and experience.

What’s on the menu?

Antonio will be featuring some of his favorite dishes that he has created from The Long Beach Seafood Roll to a Breakfast Fried Rice and more…

What about the drinks?

All the drinks will be fun and inspired cocktails, mocktails and other libations that directly pair with the food.

Antonio can’t think of a better way to celebrate 10 Years of The Nest than to curate and cook for his favorite event, with his favorite people (you)! So come celebrate this new season of our Chef Series on November 15th.
