Pacific Beach based Eat.Drink.Sleep., which operates local restaurants like JRDN, Cannonball, Draft Mission Beach, Decoy Dockside and more, has announced the return and appointment of David Warner as the hospitality group’s new Corporate Executive Chef. For his first project, Warner will oversee day-to-day operations and refine the menu and culinary operations at the company's newest restaurant, Decoy Dockside Dining at the Lakehouse Hotel & Resort in San Marcos, which was left without an Executive Chef ever since Danilo Tangalin left the group in August nearly as soon as the lakeside eatery opened.
"We are delighted to welcome Chef Warner back to Eat.Drink.Sleep.," said Brett Miller, President and CEO. "Dave made a lasting impression on our culinary program when he served as the Executive Chef at JRDN in Pacific Beach a few years ago. We are excited to see what his innovative ideas will bring to this new role."
