Pine Ridge Winery Lobster Fest!

We had so much fun at our first Pine Ridge Winery Lobster Fest! Our winery does its famous Lobster Fest once a year for members only, so we had to experience this first hand. What a feast! We each got an apron, which came in very handy during the feast. We arrived to appetizers being served all around in the gardens and patio with wine pairings. We had grilled lamb and hanger steak skewers, prosciutto wrapped figs stuffed with blue cheese and oysters from an oyster bar with special sauces. We were then escorted to the long tables where the lobster feast was to be served.

We stood back and the cooks ran down the tables and poured out buckets of yummy food! Lobster, shrimp, potatoes, garlic, onions, artichokes...yum! We dug in with our hands! Everything was amazing! Lots of butter and garlic...yum! We were then taken to the patio again for dessert- tiramisu paired with the new release of Malbec wine- first in 10 years. Yum!! We were very happy to have experienced the famous Lobster Fest just a drive away from our home in San Francisco.


...very serious work!
