Eat, Drink, Love S1:E8

For Starters

We meet five women who are climbing their way to the top of the red hot L.A. food scene. Although they may need each other professionally, they don’t always get along socially. In an industry dominated by men, these women need to stick together... but can they?

Hanging with the Big Boys

With L.A. Food & Wine Festival just days away, Nina and Jessica scramble to make a big mark on the local food scene. Meanwhile, Jessica pushes her team to take Fuku Burger to the next level. Then, Waylynn celebrates Fonuts’ one-year anniversary with an interview for Eater LA with Kat.

Show & Tells a Lot

Nina's feeling isolated in L.A., so she turns to longtime family friend, Lauren Hutton, for advice and throws an adult "show and tell" party in the hopes of strengthening her friendships. Waylynn relives a bittersweet memory by putting on her dream wedding dress she never got to wear. Meanwhile, Brenda and Kat attend a very exclusive charity dinner, where Kat is the flirty center of attention.

Reputation is Everything

Jessica's father visits from out of town and she is eager for his approval. Waylynn breaks her "no chef" policy when things progress with Andrew. Lindsay is blindsided when Jessica makes a snap business decision. Meanwhile, Brenda drops a bomb when she confronts Kat about her reputation in the L.A. food scene.

Bottle Shock

Jessica reels over the loss of her job, while Brenda suspects Lindsay is at the root of her troubles at work. Kat arranges a girls' bonding trip to Santa Ynez to explore the food-to-table phenomenon happening in the local food scene. The trip takes a turn when Brenda confronts Lindsay in front of all the women. And a seemingly harmless comment by Waylynn sends Jessica running off in tears.

Palate Cleanser

Before leaving Santa Ynez, Jessica confronts Waylynn over the comment that made her break down. Back in L.A., Brenda attempts to smooth things over with Lindsay. And Jessica, still lost after losing her job, finally calls her father in the hopes of getting comfort and support. Meanwhile, Kat seeks advice from Waylynn over her alleged reputation. How will she react when Waylynn doesn't hold back?

Taste Test

Waylynn takes a trip to New York City to look at potential Fonuts locations while sneaking in a romantic getaway with Andrew. Jessica finally looks for a job and hopes her former co-worker Clint can help. Brenda goes out on her first date in two years where her rusty dating skills might cut things short. And Nina has 48 hours to prepare a pop-up dinner to impress important people in the L.A. food scene, but can she first impress the harshest critics of all—her friends?
