The Grand Del Mar San Diego..Serving Tea & Desserts Every Day for the Holidays

Every area of the country, if not the globe has a little nook and/or cranny to celebrate the holiday season their own way. You could even be in one part of town like New York City and find a whole other world of festivities on the other end of town that don't even seem like you're in the same city.

Well today's featured post is about the Grand Del Mar Resort in San Diego. Obviously keeping with the holiday theme I have something interesting to report about this hotel as it relates to Christmas. Well here it is if you can't wait any longer. The Grand Del Mar Resort San Diego is an upscale property. It has just about anything you could want in a hotel which, even better, is located in one of the most beautiful cities in the world. Having started actually at th beginning of 2008 the Grand Del Mar Resort of San Diego has been doing an entire line of Culinary events. During the month of December, the hotel is holding an event each day from 6:30pm to 8:30pm where they feature exquisite Holiday Desserts. What's great about these events is the open nature. That is, guests get to actually mingle and talk with the chefs. It's much more informal, but don't let that make you think the quality is any less than what you could expect at any Five Star Resort Restaurant. What's more the event also offers classes during each session to learn how to make your own five star Holiday Treat. The menu includes great things such as tarts, cakes, an array of sweets, pastries and just about anything else you can think of that has sweet in it.

The Grand Del Mar Resort San Diego will continue this culinary series well past the holiday season into the end of January 2009. If you're looking for more information go to the link above to the official site of the hotel.

We heard about this holiday culinary event at the Grand Del Mar and have checked it out twice. The first time we were not impressed at all. Everything tasted like it was store bought or frozen once before. There was very little of anything and if you wanted to try two things they made you feel like you just stole the baby Jesus from the manger. We hung out asking when we would get to meet their chef… after about 45 minutes, watching the one kitchen person talking to their friend, we had our chance to say hi and ask questions. The gentleman was very nice but told us he was just filling in.

The next day giving them the benefit of our doubt, we went back was about the same, what I would have expected from a 2 star hotel.

We won’t be giving it a third try.
