November 01, 2026 | Big Sur Secret Location
An Outstanding in the Field event in Big Sur with guest chef Brian Redzikowski, guest winery Ian Brand, and Mountain Valley Spring Water.
About the event
Coastal mountain dinner format
Outstanding in the Field presents this Big Sur event as a long-table, family-style, multi-course outdoor dining experience. The setting is a coastal mountain ridgeline overlooking the Pacific Ocean, and the event name identifies the place as a Big Sur secret location rather than a public venue address.
The official description connects the location to families who live on the ranch and describes the views as part of everyday work there. It also notes that seasonal cycles and changes within a single day are especially visible in this setting.
Guest chef, winery, and beverage producer
The named guest chef is Brian Redzikowski of Kettner Exchange. The wine partner is Ian Brand of I.Brand & Family Winery, listed as the guest winery, and Mountain Valley Spring Water is named as the guest beverage producer.
Meal service is described as family-style. Because of that format and the organizer’s quality standards, vegetarian requests are the only dietary accommodations the organizer says it can guarantee; that information can be entered during checkout when relevant.
Shuttle, timing, and ticket policy
The event is scheduled for Sunday, November 1, 2026. It includes a scenic mountain shuttle ride of about 45 minutes each way to reach the private location, and the organizer notes that this makes the event a bit longer than usual.
Tickets are listed at $573.56 USD. The organizer’s policy says refunds or credits are not given if a participant cannot attend, though tickets can be transferred to someone else with the new guest information provided at least 24 hours before the event or by having the replacement guests give the reservation name at arrival.
