SPLASHES Launches High Tide Dinner Series with Super Pink Moon
04.22.21
Inspired by Surf & Sand Resort's oceanfront location, the SPLASHES culinary team has created a High Tide Dinner Series with a specially crafted menu and wine pairings that align with each month's full moon–beginning with April's Super Pink Moon, followed by the Flower Moon in May, and beyond.
Sample menu highlights for the inaugural Hide Tide Dinner include green gazpacho amuse bouche featuring spiced prawn, pickled onion and crisp sourdough. House cured King Salmon will follow with a compressed pink lady apple, espelette yogurt, beet horseradish gel and Everything Bagel crumb, paired with a California Schramsberg Brut Rose.
The second course is a decadent disc of seared bristol scallops with English pea, shaved purple cauliflower, prosciutto crisp, kalamata snow and orangecello emulsion paired with a French Esprit Gassier Rose. Transitioning back to land, the evening concludes with roasted duck breast alongside purple sweet potato, baby artichokes, favas, charred onion and strawberry gastrique with a glass of Narcisse, "Soliste" Pinot Noir, all of which will be followed by dessert.
The Super Pink dinner menu will be available at SPLASHES on Tuesday, April 27 for $150 per person, reservations can be made online or by calling 877.741.5908.
1555 S Coast Hwy, Laguna Beach.

Annual Orangewood Adventure Challenge
04.21.21
Orangewood Foundation is hosting their Annual Orangewood Adventure Challenge on Saturday, April 24, and this time it’s taking place in our own backyard – at the Newport Dunes! The Orangewood Adventure Challenge is an exciting and fun multi-sport, team-based race in which teams of four individuals run, navigate, and tackle challenges along a course.
The event is about working, training, and competing together as a team, across a course that’s designed to test and push your limits. Each challenger donates $1,500 as an entry fee, and sets a goal to raise funds from family, friends, and colleagues that go toward helping foster and community youth thrive and prosper. Last year’s challenge raised over $320,000.
Want to become an event Sponsor? With several event sponsorship levels and benefits, this is also a great opportunity for companies to gain increased brand visibility, reach new clients or customers, community goodwill, and be part of one of Orange County’s most unique fundraising events.
