At OBKLA, we prioritize providing healthy and delicious meals to those in need. We only source the finest, freshest ingredients from the market to create our meals. Our culinary team, led by experienced Chefs, carefully curates our menus to ensure optimal nutrition and maximum flavor in every bite. We believe everyone deserves to be treated with dignity and respect, which is why we go above and beyond to provide only the best to those we serve.

We are committed to making wholesome, balanced, nutritious hot meals. Our menu consists of a variety of options such as meatballs, chicken fajitas, tofu teriyaki stir-fries, and our highly-regarded OBKLA chocolate chip cookies. To ensure that our meals are well-received, we gather feedback from our recipients to continually improve and tailor our offerings.

In 2022, our dedicated team cooked and distributed over 27,000 meals to families in need throughout Los Angeles. This significant accomplishment was made possible through our staff and volunteers' hard work and commitment. In 2023 we will produce close to 100,000 meals for those in need.
