HYPEBEAST Eats... The Golden State - CLSC 72-Hour Take Over

In a bid to blend fashion with food — an always tasty mix — Los Angeles-based brand CLSC takes over one of the best-rated burger joints in the city for the second time: The Golden State cafe, this time for 72 hours. Having started on Wednesday and ending this Friday, 9 p.m. (PST), the cafe has been transformed into an exhibition/retail space showcasing and selling CLSC products tailored specifically for this event, while still operating as a restaurant serving the very rare CLSC Burger that’s limited to this takeover only. The burger consists of Harris Ranch beef, provolone cheese, smoked bacon, and house onion rings all smothered in BBQ sauce and sandwiched in between two brioche buns. The inspiration behind its creation is just as direct. “I wanted to offer a burger that would taste completely different from anything [The Golden State] have to offer, and not take too much time or work to accomplish… you’ve got yourself a classic Western BBQ bacon burger, aka heart attack/orgasm,” says Founder of CLSC and its burger Josh Vides.

For those wanting to drop by, CLSC have put together a collection of apparel and accessories made available only during the 72-hour takeover. The range includes two T-shirts ($30 USD each), a series of skate decks ($60 USD each and unfortunately already sold out), pint glasses ($5 USD) and 3 x 5 prints. Make sure you work up a hangry appetite from the gallery above before heading over to the address below for that heart attack/orgasm.
