Culina at Four Seasons Hotel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills offers this one-of-a-kind, luxurious cinematic experience leading up to this year’s 92nd Academy Awards.

With reclining leather chairs for guests to comfortably relax, each seat is accompanied with its own plush blanket and side table for movie snacks and beverages. Guests are greeted by an old-fashioned popcorn machine as they enter the theatre where each guest can enjoy a complimentary bag of freshly popped corn that can be personally customised with specialty seasonings. For viewers craving something sweet, movie theatre boxed candy will be available for purchase. Additionally, guests are able enjoy specialty cocktails or sip and savour a bottle of wine for purchase while taking in their favourite 2020 Academy Award-nominated film screening.

For guests attending an evening screening, Chef de Cuisine Luca Moriconi has created a three-course prix-fixe menu (USD 59 per person including screening), beginning with guest's antipasti choice of the zupetta di cavolfiore, composed of roasted cauliflower puree, beluga lentils and EVOO; the insalata e tartufo, prepared with baby gem lettuce, seasonal truffle and raspadura cheese; the burrata e prosciutto comprised of burrata, melon, persimmons, aged balsamic and prosciutto; and the ravioli di stagione, with kabocha squash ravioli, butter and sage, amaretti crumble and parmigiana reggiano.
