The Lighthouse Bayview Cafe’s 3-Course Christmas Boat Parade dinner
The Lighthouse Bayview Café is celebrating its one year anniversary today and will continue to celebrate the holiday season during the 108th Annual Newport Beach Boat Parade on December 14-18.

Main course selections feature stout beer braised short ribs with wild mushroom and pea polenta, gremolata, pan roasted sole with winter beans and potato puree, or a maple glazed pork chop served with caramelized apple puree, roasted root vegetables and chili apple gastrique.
For dessert, you must try our favorite beignets outside New Orleans--the Lighthouse cinnamon sugar beignets filled with cream cheese icing---or chocolate cake s’mores-style with toasted meringue, graham cracker streusel and whipped cream.
