Cost: 5-Course Wine Dinner $160/person

An intimate dinner featuring an exceptional collection of wines and paired courses; the perfect Valentine's evening.

We're very excited to announce a very special Valentine's dinner at our Pacific Beach location, Drift Cafe. For our February dinner at this location, we are pleased to announce our 5th Annual Valentine's Day Dinner at Drift Cafe! We'll feature a exceptional selection of wines, hailing from a great variety of regions. Each selection will be paired with an extra-special course pairing to celebrate the occasion. Chef Erin will provide wine and paring insights at the start of each course. We have you covered for a memorable Valentine's Day dinner. This intimate venue is limited to 24 seats, at two-top tables (unless otherwise requested), with beautiful decor and ambiance. Dinner will consist of 5 paired courses then a decadent dessert. You won't want to miss this fantastic evening of wine, food and romance.

Each selection will be paired with its own wine inspired dinner course, prepared by Chef Erin Sealy. Chef Erin specializes in pairing food with wine, with a slightly different approach than most. Prior to creating a menu, each wine is tasted and reviewed and then she creates a food pairing, highlighting the nuances of each wine. This concept creates a dinner and pairing experience with layers of complexity and unique creations which exemplify the enjoyment of each wine. With a passion for food and wine, Chef Erin delights attendees with a detailed account of the pairing concept and cooking techniques that create each course. Expect a fabulous evening of wine, food and educational insights! Seating is limited. Please see below for additional dinner details and a registration link.
