The year brought another vibrant celebration of the restaurants, beverage companies, and lifestyle brands that help define Orange County living. Held at South Coast Plaza, the event welcomed nearly 600 guests—including readers, friends, and partners—who mingled while sampling standout bites and pours from more than 20 local favorites, including Paradise Dynasty, Francium Chocolate, AhbA, and Verde. Sips from SKORPIOS 1618 Tequila, Empress Gin, Dulce Vida Tequila, Knox & Dobson, and Mission Craft Cocktails kept the party going, as did snacks provided by Rove and Recharge by Gelson’s. A fun photo op by Brandhustle Design and photobooth sponsored by Keck Medicine of USC added to the festive vibe—capturing memories of an evening that was, true to its name, the best!
