Barrel'ly' Aged Craft Cocktail
As the days get shorter and the weather gets cooler, we look forward to the comfort that fall brings – and, a cocktail to go with the changing of seasons. If you feel the same way, our September Bartender’s Special is the perfect end-of-season cocktail to add to your list.
Barrel’ly’ Aged combines the oaky sweetness of bourbon with the brightness of citrus. Flavors of vanilla bean, complimented with the smoky complexity of barrel-aged bourbon, are reminiscent of the sweet, cozy and robust flavors of autumn. The bright sweetness of pineapple and lime juice, on the other hand, reminds us that it’s not quite the fall equinox just yet.

Water Grill San Diego Shows Next-Gen Hospitality
This week, the San Diego chapter of the California Restaurant Association (CRA) offered restaurant tours and a job fair for 500 hospitality program students from 15 local high schools. Water Grill San Diego welcomed the next generation with open arms, conducting tours of our two downtown restaurants, educating them on what hospitality means to us and serving up some small bites along the way.
Following the tours, the groups gathered at the Rady Shell for lunch and listened to guest speakers, including chefs who grew up in San Diego and attended similar programs.
