from SoCal Restaurant Show

“Hyatt Regency Huntington Beach has enthusiastically welcomed back the encore of Pete’s Christmas Vacation for its second year, returning by popular demand. Running  currently through January 3, the festive pop-up transforms Pete’s Sunset Grille into a coastal winter wonderland filled with twinkling lights, cozy outdoor igloos, a festive holiday libation program and a cheerful seasonal menu.”“The menu features holiday favorites with a festive twist, from Bah Humbug Fries with smoked paprika aioli and Sleigh Bell Wings glazed in honey sriracha or spicy cranberry, to the Charcutewreath, a playful take on the classic board with Bavarian pretzel, artisan cheeses, and cured meats. Heartier dishes include the Jolly Old Saint Rib with creamy Boursin polenta and the tropical Mele Kalikimaka Bowl with diced ahi, avocado, and wakame over steamed rice.”“Desserts continue the seasonal cheer with offerings like Passionfruit Cheesecake with gingersnap crust and orange honey whip, Pumpkin Bread Pudding with toffee sauce and vanilla gelato, and the indulgent S’mores Bar with toasted meringue and whiskey butterscotch. With its creative menu, cozy atmosphere, and a touch of holiday nostalgia, Pete’s Christmas Vacation is the ultimate destination to celebrate the season the SoCal way.”Executive Chef Manfred Lassahn and General Manager Jon Benson join us to unwrap all that is Pete’s Christmas Vacation.
