Straight from Valle de Guadalupe, this new concept will be featured at Ballast Point’s The Draft restaurant. So far, it has been revealed that the talented chef will offer an exclusive selection of seafood that captures the rich gastronomic tradition of Baja California, delivering the full flavor of the peninsula in every bite.
