HOST RANCHER: Ben Higgins | Hearst Ranch GUEST CHEF: Clark Staub | Full of Life Flatbread HOST VINTNER: Hearst Ranch Winery For most, it is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to dine at Hearst Ranch—yes, the same Hearsts who descended from publishing baron William Randolph Hearst, who built Hearst Castle. We’ll begin the afternoon at the ocean-side Hearst Ranch Winery with proprietors Jim and Debi Saunders, before a healthy stroll to the table, where we’ll take in sweeping views of the ocean, the ranchlands, and Hearst Castle in the distance. Tall trees and a gentle curve in the coastline help block the cool ocean breeze here, creating a calm sanctuary. In the field kitchen is Chef Clark Staub, a veteran of several of our most challenging and adventurous table settings. Show more
