According to Saveur' magazine's editor-in-chief James Oseland, the answer is yes.  Oseland says "L.A. really is the food city of the moment."  The city has redefined it's culinary scene with innovations like "pop-up" restaurants and gourmet food trucks. 
Famous French restaurant chef Ludo Lefebvre tours with his restaurant Ludo Bites.  Essentially, the chef rents out different kitchens throughout Los Angeles area and his customers follow. He has changed the face of restaurants by making the focus more about the food than about the ambiance.
