Restaurant Michael Mina has announced a new executive pastry chef: Catherine Schimenti, last seen at Craft LA. Schimenti—who migrated north alongside with one Matthew Accarrino—has also worked at NYC heavyweights like Craftsteak and Per Se. Bonus fun fact: according to the announcement, Angeleno Magazine named Schimenti "Pastry Chef of the Year" last year, so she's definitely got some skills. Either that, or LA doesn't do awards well.
