Southern California as a whole has a vibrant food culture – an endless variety of restaurants, budding entrepreneurs, avid home cooks and bakers, and passionate foodies. I am no professional, but I do love cooking and baking, and I also love the gadgets, tools, etc. that make it fun and easy to experiment in the kitchen. So, you can only imagine my excitement when I discovered this culinary supply store in Los Angeles – a true one-stop shop for food enthusiasts.

Surfas Culinary District started in an abandoned garage, supplying equipment to the Los Angeles food service industry, in 1937. Local home cooks, entrepreneurs, professional chefs, etc. now trust Surfas as a premier source of supplies and equipment - a place where they not only come to shop but to meet and share ideas.
