"With a pastry career spanning almost three decades crafting desserts for MICHELIN-starred restaurants including Le Bernardin in New York City and Michael Mina in San Francisco, Lincoln Carson has finally made the transition to chef and restaurant owner with the opening of his first restaurant, Bon Temps, in Los Angeles's Arts District. Opened on June 7, Bon Temps is a California-style brasserie that includes a patisserie, raw bar and outdoor patio on a site that was once a Heinz 57 loading dock. Carson's first crack at leading an entire menu is molded by French culinary tradition and California's abundance of fresh ingredients." - Billy Lyons
