High-End Dining: Inside the menu at San Diego’s First Cannabis Café, Sessions by the Bay

Happy Half Hour

#364 This week, Troy and Jackie talk to the crew behind the groundbreaking Sessions by the Bay, California’s first legal Amsterdam-style cannabis café opening in February in National City. Owners Alex Ayon, Pearl Ayon have created a 5,000-square-foot lounge featuring lush Moroccan-inspired interiors, immersive art installations, and indulgent food from chef Jorge Bendesky’s nearby Kimball Coastal Eatery. With dishes like brisket-blend burgers, house-made rice waffles topped with ahi tuna, and micro-dosed infused mocktails, Ayon and Bendesky detail how Sessions intends to blend culinary creativity with cannabis culture, adding a whole new element to San Diego's dining scene. We also chat San Diego’s latest food buzz, from Lucha Libre Taco Shop closing its North Park location to a bagel renaissance sweeping the city with spots like Desperado, New Wave, and Marigold.
