Slow Foods Event June 28th
Slow Foods is hosting Stagecoach Days, a food tasting event to support Slow Food Urban San Diego and Old Town Historic State Park.
More than twenty local restaurants, artisan food makers, breweries and wineries will be on hand,
sampling generous tastes of their creative cuisine that honors the early food traditions of San Diego and celebrates the bounty from local farms, fishermen and ranchers.
Among the respected restaurants scheduled to participate are 1500 Ocean at the Del, Cafe Chloe, Starlite, Romesco and many more. Participating local breweries include the award-winning AleSmith, Stone and Lost Abbey.
Hacienda de las Rosas and Salerno wineries will be participating as well. Slow Food Urban San Diego is a grassroots, volunteer-driven chapter of national, non-profit organization Slow Food USA and its parent organization Slow Food International. Our group highlights chefs, restaurants and craft food artisans who support local farms and practice business sustainably with monthly Metro Mixer events that showcase local restaurants and attract hundreds of members and friends.
Our Stagecoach Days fundraiser on June 28 will support our outreach programs including educational classes, local garden projects and Slow Food in Schools, our efforts to bring healthy, local food to the San Diego school system.
Tickets for this tasting event are just $45 and can be purchased here: brownpapertickets.com
Directions to the event: The Plaza of Old Town State Park is located at 2750 San Diego Avenue between Mason and Wallace. Free parking can be found in the Old Town lots; there is also street parking.
