SoFi Stadium: Here’s the food you will want to eat - The Daily Breeze

lemperbon.blogspot.com

The streets of L.A. served as the launching pad for a pair of James Beard Award-winning chefs who have designed the food program at the new SoFi Stadium.

Expect inspired by delis, pizza and burger joints as well as the city’s Mexican and Asian cuisine while you take in football games from the Rams and Chargers as well as concerts in the new 70,000-seat stadium.

“The food really reflects the food that we love to eat and what we think works in a stadium,” said Jon Shook, who teamed up with SoFi Stadium to create a city-inspired menu with fellow chef and business partner Vinny Dotolo.

“We want to make sure people are happy with this and by doing something too avant-garde might turn people off in a stadium setting, so it was really about feeding the masses with the best quality,” Dotolo said.

The all-star chefs, who have been featured on the Food Network show “Two Dudes Catering,” are behind some of the Los Angeles’ most respected restaurants, including meat lover’s paradise Animal, the seafood-centric Son of a Gun and Italian eatery Jon & Vinny’s.

For their partnership with the stadium, which is the new home of the Rams and Chargers as well as a concert venue, the chefs have created the LA Eats concession program based on four different concepts all named after a notable city streets.

The concession stands are Olvera Street, Fairfax Avenue, Sawtelle and San Vicente boulevards.

“It’s everything from history to where we think food is going, but definitely driven toward stadium philosophy,” Shook said.

The four types have multiple locations throughout the stadium and serve the same menu, according to a stadium spokesperson.

Take a trip through some of the highlights of each street-inspired menu. Note that prices have not yet been announced.

Fairfax

The chefs describe this as a sub, deli and cheeseburger concept serving items such as chicken salad sandwiches, vegan chili, jalapeño cheddar sausage, chips and queso, a gooey chocolate chip cookie and fusions of cheeseburgers and subs.

The standouts: 

Cheeseburger Sub

This is pretty much a long cheeseburger that’s simple and classic. American cheese tops a beef patty with pickles, ketchup and mustard between a potato bun. It can be split in two for those with lighter appetites or easily devoured by a hungry burger lover.

Veggie Burger

This burger is exactly the same as the cheeseburger sub with all the toppings, but features a veggie patty instead of beef.

Olvera

The city’s Mexican cuisine is on display with offerings such as including, burritos, tacos and shrimp cocktails.

The Standouts:

Chicken Tinga Nachos

Forget the football game, because it will require all of your attention to tackle this big plate of spicy nachos. A ton of nachos (probably not the actual weight, but maybe) are topped with green onions, black olives, chopped tomatoes, sour cream, pickled jalapeños, queso and Salsa Macha, which is a salsa from Veracruz, Mexico, that’s made with a variety of dried peppers. Oh yeah, there’s also chicken tinga layered between all of the goodness.

Beef Barbacoa Burrito

The chefs reached out to El Monte-born Burritos Las Palmas for its handmade flour tortillas to wrap around their braised beef, rice and pinto beans. The slow-cooked shredded beef is tender, juicy and just slightly spicy while the tortilla is delicate and buttery.

San Vicente

Menu items include pizza, meatballs and lighter fare such as a kale salad. There’s also a hot dog/pizza hybrid parked here.

The Standouts:

Pepperoni Pizza

This is a thick chunk of pizza dripping with mozzarella cheese, tomato sauce and thick pepperoni with perfectly burned edges.

Stromboli Dog

This hot dog-meets-Stromboli dish isn’t only the standout in the San Vicente menu, this may be the standout of the entire LA Eats menu, just because it’s so weird. The hot dog is wrapped in capicola, mortadella, salami and provolone. Then, that’s all wrapped in pizza dough and baked in the oven. And forget ketchup, this is served with marinara sauce. The dough tastes like a warm cloud, which is fitting since the combo of the hot dog and the other ingredients is pretty much meat heaven.

Sawtelle

This is a nod to Asian fusion cuisine with options such as sesame ginger salad, vegetables with miso dip and a unique take on tater tots.

The Standouts: 

Crispy Chicken Sandwich

This sandwich looks like a salad on a bun since there’s a mountain of cabbage, cucumbers, carrots, onions, jalapeños and onions. But wait, there’s more. After a big bite through the greenery, you’ll get to the sweet soy sauce, the spicy Sriracha mayo and then the tender and juicy chicken strips.

Tsunami Tots

These may look like regular tots at first, but the Asian influences pop out in flavor bursts in every bite. The tots are drizzled with eel sauce, Sriracha aioli, furikake, plus togarashi for a bit of a spicy kick.
