Ludo Lefebvre at Gram & Papas. (Mathieu Bitton / HarperCollins )
Chef Ludo Lefebvre's LudoBites is back, for its 10th run -- a "best of" celebration of the popular pop-up dinner series. LudoBites.TEN is scheduled to take place at Gram & Papas downtown on weekdays Dec. 4-21.
A reservations lottery runs from 11 a.m. on Nov. 28 to 11 a.m. on Nov. 29 via UrbanSpoon. You can select desired dates and seatings (the early seating is from 6 p.m. to 6:45 p.m.; the late seating is from 7:45 p.m. to 9 p.m.), or all days and "no preference" for times if your calendar is open. Your party size can be between two and eight people.
If you're been selected, you will receive a text message on Nov. 30 with instructions to visit a website within 24 hours to confirm your reservation. (You must confirm to secure your reservation.)
"This is really a celebration of what LudoBites has meant to us and acknowledging our fans by bringing back some of the favorite dishes from the past (minus foie gras, of course)," Lefebvre's wife and partner, Krissy Lefebvre, said in an email.
"I look at it as the stories and recipes of LudoBites that created the cookbook, and now the cookbook is inspiring one more run with great memories hitting the plate. ... But there is no way possible Ludo will not be able to add a few new creations."
A donation of $1 from the sales of each of two LudoBites.TEN dishes will go to the Cart for a Cause EAT GOOD | DO GOOD program.
Gram & Papas, 227 E. 9th St., Los Angeles.
