Dine LBC – Long Beach Restaurant Week founder Terri Henry conceived the idea after seeing a “Kitchen Ink” feature in OC Weekly several years ago. She was looking to bring the concept to Long Beach but wanted to put a unique spin on it, hence the calendar idea was born. Seasoned photographer John Gilhooley, who shot the OC Weekly feature in 2010, was sought out and tapped to provide the photography.
More than just a one-time editorial feature, the calendar is a high quality promotional piece and expected to warrant a keepsake status beyond its 12 months. Based on the enthusiasm from the featured chefs, Henry expects it become an annual project.
The Dine LBC “Long Beach Kitchen Ink” Calendar is priced at $19 plus tax and shipping and is now available for pre-sale on the Dine LBC and Dine LBC Originals websites. Only 800 calendars will be available and quantity discounts are available. The calendar will be in stock and ready to ship mid-October.
