Dana Point Restaurants Partner With VR Green Farms to Offer Organic Menu

DANA POINT, CA--(Marketwire - Dec 28, 2012) - In a state where 'organic' and 'food' go together like 'Hollywood' and 'star,' the Laguna Cliffs Marriott Resort & Spa is pleased to offer farm-to-table cuisine at its Dana Point restaurant The Vue.

Partnering with VR Green Farms in San Clemente, this Dana Point business hotel procures the freshest, naturally grown, local, organic produce for its four-course farm-to-table menu. The seasonal menu, which changes every week, offers variety without compromising on quality. Recent dishes have included filet medallions with butternut squash, asparagus, bell pepper and carrots, and Alaska weathervane scallops with charred corn kernels, heirloom tomatoes and beets. Guests who reserve a Farm-to-Table spa treatment with a dinner reservation on Friday or Saturday will receive a complimentary appetizer that same evening.

"Our focus with this program is to help support the farm-to-table movement and to utilize quality, locally harvested ingredients with our cuisine," Erasmo Rodriguez, executive chef at this hotel near Laguna Beach, CA, says. "Our partnership with VR Green Farms enables us to provide the freshest organic produce to our guests, and the opportunity to educate them on the ties between local farmers, our community and the food we enjoy."

The Vue restaurant at this hotel near San Diego SeaWorld pairs a delicious menu of casual California cuisine with an inviting atmosphere. Open for breakfast, lunch and dinner, it offers unbeatable views of the Pacific Ocean and Dana Point Harbor. To enjoy a meal under the warm California sun, head to this hotel's OverVue Lounge and Deck, an outdoor patio featuring entertainment, cocktails and a fantastic view. Sit under an umbrella on hot days, or warm up near the outdoor fireplace during cool nights.
