After Fire Nights - A Chef Dinner Series

Get ready for After Fire Nights, an elevated in-person chef dinner series! Dive into incredible flavors, scratch cooking, and a dedication to craft. Join us as top chefs serve up their best creations. A focus on collaboration, curiosity, and creativity will provide a truly unique dining experience. It's the perfect chance to enjoy great food, meet fellow food lovers, and have a fun night out!

Our first event, Summer On The Coast, will feature Chef Benji Lara of Ponto Lago, Chef Ite Folsa of Temecula Valley, and Chef David Lay of Kettle On Coast. The dinner will take you on a culinary journey with an optional wine pairing.

The dinner will be an elevated family-style experience featuring:

  • Amuse
  • Shareable appetizer
  • Fish course
  • Main course
  • Dessert

Early Bird Pricing: tickets include gratuity. An optional wine pairing can be added for $55. This addition is 21+ only.

From the Chef: The idea behind the event is simple. Most guests experience the fire at its busiest. Tickets are printing, pans are moving, and the dining room is full. After the rush is over and the dining room grows quiet, the kitchen becomes something different. It’s a place for curiosity, collaboration, and cooking without the constraints of regular service. That’s the spirit I want the series to represent.
