Chefs and Friends Dining Experience
Chefs & Friends returns to Omni La Costa in 2026 with fresh inspiration. The evolved series brings together Chef de Cuisine Cameron Dixon and Executive Chef Emily Brubaker—fresh off her championship win on NBC’s Yes, Chef!—for an exclusive culinary collaboration.
Each dinner in the series showcases a shared vision: refined, seasonal cuisine inspired by the chefs’ distinct styles and the stories behind the ingredients. With surprise guests, artful plating, and an ever-evolving menu, Chefs & Friends is a celebration of culinary creativity, camaraderie, and unforgettable flavor.
