Hometown Heroes Unleashed
A San Diego Wave Celebration at Nolita Hall, Hosted by Chef Tiffani Faison, Executive Chef Luis Esteva, and Audrey Hermes
All-Inclusive Food + Drink Experience
Buckle up, because the Del Mar Wine + Food Festival is teaming up with the Big Queer Food Festival to throw down for our San Diego Wave FC heroes. And where better to unleash this culinary thunderstorm than Nolita Hall—the ultimate spot where good times meet great food. This isn’t just another eat-and-sip fest; it’s a full-blown tribute to our hometown legends, served up by culinary rockstar Chef Tiffani Faison and Nolita’s very own maestro, Executive Chef Luis Esteva. These two are about to drop flavor bombs that’ll have you questioning every meal you’ve had before this. And just when you think you’ve had enough, Frost Me Café’s Audrey Hermes will hit you with desserts that are almost too good to eat.
We’re talking dishes that shout, cocktails that whisper secrets of the players’ roots. You’ll be sipping on next-level concoctions featuring Four Walls Whiskey, Layback Gin, Fierce and Kind Vodka, Lalo Tequila, and Ramble Sparkling Water—each drink crafted to tell the story of our Wave stars.
