MAMA'S BOY
Down the Boardwalk at the Winston House, Chef Wes Whitsell makes his second appearance with his pop-up restaurant, Mama's Boy. Once again leaning into his Texan roots, he's creating what he calls a "spaghetti western" menu filled with family recipes tweaked to become his own using California fresh produce, Italian flavors, and his fond food memories from his rural Texas farm. This pop-up isn't here for long, so don't miss out on this unique dining menu. Venison tartare, anyone?
