California Cuisine is a style of cuisine marked by
an interest in "fusion" - integrating disparate cooking styles and ingredients -
and in freshly prepared using local ingredients. The food is typically prepared
with particularly strong attention to presentation. The term California Cuisine
arose as a result of culinary movements in the last several decades and should
not be confused with the traditional foods of California.
