Now that Jose Garces has laid roots down at two new restaurants in Palm Springs, both confidently placed into the hands of Philly’s Dave Conn, the chef feels he’s ready to take on Los Angeles in a new eatery. Today, Garces tells Food GPS, “I’ve always wanted to come to California…L.A. is definitely in my sights. If I’m going to travel all the way here from the East Coast, my goal is…instead of flying through Phoenix to get [to Palm Springs], is to fly into L.A., go to my spot there, do it, and then come out here and do this as well.” Wow, he’s already working out his plan to avoid traffic! Garces, a noted fan of Hollywood’s Animal, sounds like he’s going native in SoCal. [Food GPS]
