As a judge on Top Chef and the host of Top Chef: Just Desserts, Gail Simmons is known for having superior taste in food. But this part-time Angeleno also has divine taste in fashion, as evidenced by the always-chic ensembles she wears on her Bravo shows. Although she is based in New York, Simmons spends several months a year in LA for both work and pleasure. While here, she enjoys hiking in Runyon Canyon and exploring local farmers’ markets, as well as checking out some of the city’s best eateries (Animal, Nickel Diner and Bottega Louie are some of her faves). We asked the fabulous foodie to reveal the contents of her purse.
