Show 493, October 1, 2022: Outer Reef in Dana Point with Executive Chef John Tesar and Chef de Cuisine Jayro Martinez Part Two

Jayro Martinez of Outer Reef

“Exemplifying an elevated concept of sea-to-table Surf and Turf in Orange County, Outer Reef at the Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort in Dana Point pairs seafood sourced exclusively from the Pacific Coast with bold flavors of prime meats. Spearheaded by critically lauded John Tesar, a multiple James Beard Award nominee and Michelin Starred Chef, Outer Reef’s dinner menu highlights fresh California produce, high-quality meats and seafoods including fresh shellfish, caviar, and crudo, all alongside a curated cocktail program.”

“Outer Reef is inspired by Chef Tesar’s critically acclaimed seafood restaurant Knife & Spoon (Orlando) and his premium steakhouse, Knife (Dallas and Plano.)” The premium certified Akaushi beef is sourced from HeartBrand in Texas overseen by 3rd & 4th generation cattle ranchers.

The Chef de Cuisine is Jayro Martinez, most recently the opening chef at the well-regarded Mayfield Restaurant & Market in San Juan Capistrano and a distinguished alum of the Careers through Culinary Arts Program (C-CAP.)

“Outer Reef reflects Dana Point’s signature mix of elegant sophistication and laidback coastal culture, making it an ideal destination for any special occasion from romance to family time, a new business endeavor to an unforgettable time with friends. Savor your meal under the warm Southern Californian sunshine in an incredibly relaxed, ocean-view environment (indoors or outdoors) that is not to be missed.”
