Netflix is about to be more than just a streaming service where you watch your favorite reality dating show.
The media company will reportedly launch a pop-up restaurant in Los Angeles on June 30 called Netflix Bites that features food from chefs seen on various platform programs.
Per The Hollywood Reporter, “the food concept will be built around an ‘elevated dining experience’ featuring chefs featured in various Netflix shows.
“Among the chefs participating are Curtis Stone, Ming Tsai and Andrew Zimmern of Iron Chef: Quest for an Iron Legend; Dominique Crenn of Chef’s Table and Iron Chef; Rodney Scott and Ann Kim of Chef’s Table; Nadiya Hussain of Nadiya Bakes; and Jacques Torres of Nailed It! There will also be cocktails designed by the mixologists from Drink Masters.”
While the concept itself should be a cool experience for fans of Netflix’s many cooking and food shows, the idea of a Netflix restaurant got folks on the internet making jokes about how an actual Netflix restaurant would work.
