By Lesley Balla
Once again, it's time to reveal a fresh new class of young culinarians
- the chefs, mixologists, sommeliers and food artisans that make up
our 30 Under 30 list. This group of twentysomething Angelenos is
creating a food and drink scene around LA that's bursting at the seams
with flavor and verve, from chocolates to classic cocktails, food
trucks to fried chicken, and everything in between. Click through to
meet the 2013 honorees.
Hourie Sahakian, 25
Head Baker,
Short Cake
Why she made the list: Sahakian met Amy Pressman at the gym, and
quickly discovered they were `food soul mates,' which led to a gig
running the Original Farmers Market bakery. With little training,
other than flipping porterhouse steaks with her dad or crafting
delicate Armenian cookies with her grandmother, Sahakian hopes to keep
Pressman's vision alive by creating delicious tea cakes, scones,
cookies, pies and savory bread pudding - food that's robust,
traditional and from the heart.
