Dominique Ansel comes to LA

The Cronut creator will open a restaurant and bakery later this year.

The yet-to-be-named venture, which will be Ansel’s fifth and largest project, will include brunch, dinner, cocktails and events, as well as his famous pastries.

Ansel opened his first bakery in New York City in 2011. Dominique Ansel Kitchen opened in 2015as did his bakery in Tokyo and last September, a third Dominique Ansel Bakery opened in London. Los Angeles will allow Ansel and his team a larger space than those they have at their other locations.

Born in Beauvais, a city north of Paris, Ansel started in the kitchen at the tender age of 16 and worked at pastry shops in Paris before moving to New York, where he was executive pastry chef at Daniel Boulud’s multi-Michelin-starred restaurant Daniel for six years.
