About this Event

Overview

Settle in for a cozy, seven-course exploration of unusual American holiday dishes with Bill Oakley at Ballast Point Little Italy.

Get ready for a festive night of unforgettable holiday dishes at An American Culinary Curiosity Dinner: Happy Holidays Edition with Bill Oakley, in collaboration with the talented chefs at Ballast Point Little Italy!

Known for his Emmy Award-winning writing for The Simpsons, Portlandia, Futurama, and Mission Hill, Bill is coming to Ballast Point on Wednesday, December 9 to share amusing anecdotes and culinary commentary about the wonderful world of unusual American holiday foods.

But the real star of the evening is the food. The Ballast Point kitchen will be putting their own seasonal stamp on a menu of rare regional American holiday dishes. These are the beloved festive treats that families in one corner of the country wait all year for, but that are hard to find outside their hometowns and are rarely, if ever, served in San Diego. And you’ll be getting Ballast Point’s unique take on each one of them.

This exclusive in-person event offers ticketholders the rare opportunity to explore the weird, cozy, and iconic holiday tastes of America. Bill will host the dinner and provide a multimedia slideshow offering a deep dive into the often-strange and funny lore behind every holiday dish you’ll be eating.

Your meal will consist of seven surprise courses, large and small, including dessert.

(IMPORTANT: Due to the unusual nature of this meal, special orders and food allergies cannot be accommodated, sorry.)
