Bestie Bowls is a new pop-up experience from Cesar and it caters to people and pets alike with meals for all. In collaboration with [Postmates](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/erewhon-kids-meal), dog owners in New York City and Los Angeles can order these matching meals for free on the on-demand food and delivery app, while supplies last.

While dogs will get to enjoy [Cesar Wholesome Bowls](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/cesar-restaurant-weekend-2025), a line of culinary-inspired wet dog food, crafted with real meat and fresh vegetables, their owners will get to feast on nourishing bowls created by [Food Network](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/friends-family-pet-food) host, chef and author Jeff Mauro. For example, the Chicken & Hot Honey Sweet Potato Bowl for humans takes cues from the ingredients in the Cesar Wholesome Bowls, tapping into the humanification of pet food.
