I enjoyed the Encinitas Food Tour with friends for a birthday celebration. Our guide, Ben, was excellent and shared fascinating stories and historical insights as we explored the city. We tried unique tacos at Taco City, enjoyed three tastings at Culture Brewing Company with delicious pizza from Gelati and Picatti, and had a delightful pasta dish paired with Chardonnay at Third Corner Restaurant.
