LA Gives a Massive Welcome to Chef Dominique

It was a rainy morning in Los Angeles on March 1st, but that did not stop hundreds from showing up to Barneys NY at The Grove for the one pop-up with Chef Dominique Ansel and his famed pastry the Cronut®. With the event starting at 10am, the line stretched to more than 350 hours earlier and was capped. California fans drove miles to welcome the chef, with the earliest group arriving at 2:30am!

We were so excited to be welcomed by LA, and to donate to Heart of Los Angeles. For a fun recap of stories that happened in line that day, read LAist’s recount here.
