Best of Dining 2026

Meet the winners of Ranch & Coast’s Best of Dining 2026

Editor’s Pick, Meet the Makers: Celebrate the Craft There’s as much attention on who grows and produces the ingredients as who prepares them at the 23rd annual Celebrate the Craft, taking place October 18. Against the coastal backdrop of The Lodge at Torrey Pines, an expansive lineup of chefs from Southern California and Baja comes together with regional farmers, ranchers, fishers, vintners, brewers, and artisans for an afternoon devoted to seasonality and collaboration. This year marks a new chapter under The Lodge’s Executive Chef Eric Sakai and A.R. Valentien Chef de Cuisine Owen Beatty, with participating chefs including Eric Bost, Drew Deckman, Benito Molina, JoJo Ruiz, Claudia Sandoval, Travis Swikard, Brad Wise, and many more. New experiences join tastings, demonstrations, and an extensive collection of vintners, while a portion of ticket proceeds benefits the San Diego Food Bank. celebratethecraft.com M.P.
