The Hottest Date Night Of July: An Enchanted Summer Crawfish Boil At Milagro Winery

Infamous Chef Ryan Johnston from La Jolla’s Whisknladle had a dream…

And in this dream was the ideal Southern-inspired summer meal, with a seasonal summer salad, crawfish, clams, shrimp, corn and potatoes all served family-style. The delicious tastes incited guests with both conversation and camaraderie…

But wait! While this dream happened in the past, the reality is about to happen in the future!

Because we all should listen to our dreams (right!?), Chef Ryan Johnston and Milagro Winery are pulling out all of the stops to put on an as-authentic-as-can-be Crawfish Boil on the winery’s bucolic Ramona property.

This special, seasonally inspired event is bringing the Spirit of the South to San Diego County on Saturday, July 29th from 4:30 p.m. to 7:30 p.m.

The meal will conclude with fresh summer berry cupcakes and the fare will be served with the winery’s Ballena Blanco, Rosé and Littlepage Red.

Live music will set the tone for an idyllic evening at the rustic property overlooking the Ramona Valley.

Come early and enjoy an afternoon stroll and perhaps a few outdoor games prior to one of the most romantic dinners ever!

Indulge yourselves (and your loved ones), San Diego. You deserve it!
