Introduced to lark by prolific culinary photographer Jim Sullivan of Medium Raw, Chef Alex Bolar hails from Atlanta, Georgia, migrating West to intentionally immerse himself in the growing Los Angeles food scene—to explore, share & hone his craft across the platforms; whereas his latest endeavor, an homage to his grandmother, is the launch of Lula Mae’s Pantry.

His passion for cooking began at home, side by side, in stiff competition with his brothers—who can make the best meal? Alex went on to culinary school, established a series of supper club dinners & continues to gain experience in a range of kitchens across California (and beyond).

He is dedicated to his craft and dreams of opening his own neighborhood restaurant. We are fortunate to the opportunity to collaborate with this talented chef once again—Thursday 6/5/25—as we set our communal table at the vibrant + inspiring contextual art gallery known as Herron House in West Side Costa Mesa. We can’t wait to share the menu he dreams up! And to see the connections & conversations unfold over this one.
Modern. Organic. Inspirational. Social Dining.
