SoCal Restaurant Show December 7, 2024 Hour 1

“Welcome to Sarah Simms’ and Boo Simms’ (twin sisters) Lady & Larder, your destination in Santa Monica and Carmel for the finest artisanal cheese and charcuterie boards. Driven by their commitment to 100% domestic and sustainable food practices, the Simms’ champion a culture of food and entertaining that they hope will flourish for many generations to come. Their ethos is simple: deliver nothing short of the very best. Time and again, they have found that unparalleled quality emerges from the dedicated hands of local, small-batch artisans. Sarah and Boo are privileged to be patrons of America's most dedicated farmers, winemakers and cheesemakers. Their unmatched craftsmanship and dedication to their beautiful products inspire them to do what they do, every day.” Sarah Simms takes a break from her cheese board to join us.“Surrounded by 63 acres of carefully tended vines, South Coast Winery Resort in Temecula elevates the Southern California winery experience to perhaps Napa levels and possibly even beyond. What makes their grapes so special is the combination of the rich Southern California soil and generous Temecula Valley sunshine. Pair this stunning atmosphere with South Coast Winery's talented winemakers and you get beautiful wines that you simply cannot find elsewhere. South Coast Winery is the proud recipient of the Golden State Winery of the Year by the California State Fair in the California Commercial Wine Competition.  For South Coast Winery’s Master Winemaker Jon McPherson his profession is also his passion – culminating in masterworks of consumable art, taking the form of consistently award-winning wines. The Winemaking Team’s solemn quest: to produce wines as sublime as they are faithful to the nature of their grapes.” Jon has unusually been with South Coast Winery since the very beginning in 2003. Winemaker Jon McPherson is our guest to uncork all that is South Coast Winery Resort and Carter Estate Winery & Resort.
