SD Sriracha Lovers Celebrate the Rooster Sauce on September 20th!



Friend of Edible Skinny Randy Clemens (who wrote The Sriracha Cookbook and the Veggie-Lovers Sriracha Cookbook) will be celebrating his 1st Annual San Diego Sriracha Festival next weekend on Saturday September 20th at Liberty Station (and don’t worry LA his 2nd Annual Los Angeles Sriracha Festival is happening Sunday October 19th). 


This chef-driven, all-inclusive, 21+ event from The Sriracha Cookbook and Food GPS spotlights the world's most iconic hot sauce at a unique, historical venue. Multiple stations allow guests to enjoy a variety of Sriracha-themed dishes, including desserts, at their own pace. Local craft beer, cocktails, sodas, iced coffee and iced tea help tame the heat while a live DJ set helps create a fun and unforgettable food and drink experience.

Special Sriracha-spiked dishes from some of San Diego’s best chefs and restaurants participating in this year’s event include:

THE BELLOWS Schuyler Schultz - Sriracha-Cured Grilled Cobia with Sambal-Spice Couscous, Labne Cream, and Herbs
