Meals As Amazing as You

An event serving the best has to serve them the best. That's why your menu at WALC will be overseen by the Terranea Resort's renowned executive chef Andrew Vaughn. Chef Vaughn and his team will craft food selections that fuel your body and touch your soul.

 

Meet Your Chef

 

Chef Andrew Vaughn trained with Daniel Boulud and Emeril Lagasse and spent 8 years building up signature resto mar'sel - earning mentions in the Michelin Guide and Forbes Travel Guide - before becoming Executive Chef of Terranea's entire food program. He brings a love of local seasonal flavors to his menus. “We in California have the best products, and wonderful produce, some of which is grown within sight of the resort. It changes with the seasons, and so does what we do with it. We want to always create food that is approachable, comforting, and that tells a story.”
