How we consume content has changed drastically over the last couple of years. We no longer have to wait for our favourite films to come to the theatres, as we can directly watch them on OTT platforms. Short web series and mini-series are trending as they come in small, bite-sized, easily binge-able formats. Whether it's the drama genre, thriller flicks or food and kitchen shows - we love to watch it all. OTT buffs have an array of shows that they eagerly await the release of. And now, Netflix US has taken entertainment a step forward. The digital streaming giant is set to launch their first pop-up restaurant in Los Angeles to offer a taste of the shows we all enjoy.

Josh Simon, VP of Consumer Products said, "From episode to entrée, with NETFLIX BITES we are creating an in-person experience where fans can immerse themselves in their favourite food shows. We are excited to collaborate with these incredible chefs who will bring this vision to life and showcase an array of their delicious menus. "Bringing my love of food to people across the world is one of the biggest thrills of my life but this screen-to-table experience of giving fans a taste of what happens on camera is just awesome," added Michelin-starred chef Curtis Stone.
