Marissa Hermer: Restaurateur, Cookbook Author and Lady of London
Growing up in Orange County, Marissa Hermer was raised on fresh, healthful food and homemade granola. As an adult working in PR in London, she met her husband and helped him run and expand their restaurant and nightclub empire. There, she became a well known face as one of the ladies on the hit Bravo reality show, Ladies of London. At home, the foods she cooked for her family were a mix of the traditional British fare they loved and the lighter flavors of Southern California, which she documented in her cookbook "An American Girl in London.” Now, she’s back in Southern California with the wildly popular Draycott restaurant, inspired by her time in London, and new West Hollywood hot spot Olivetta. Join us for a fun conversation to learn why every night at her restaurant is opening night. and why you should give mincemeat pie a try.
