What to Order in October: Salt Creek Grille's "The Grille Chop"
Autumn SCV staples: frizzy fall hair (Thank you, Santa Ana winds.), an increase in Ugg boot sightings and... Salt Creek's The Grille Chop. Why? Because this cured center-cut double-thick pork chop boasts all the best flavors of fall: sweet apple chutney, garlic mashed potatoes and seasonal vegetables. Really lean into the season by pairing your Chop with the Harvest Pear cocktail, made with Absolut Pear Vodka, fresh lime and apple juices, simple syrup and a spiced cinnamon-sugar rim.

The Great Pumpkin Comeback Begins October 1
Forget waiting for the Great Pumpkin to appear. At Marston's, you know exactly when it's coming. Beginning October 1, Chef Jim McCardy welcomes back two seasonal favorites that have become an autumn tradition: Marston's famous Pumpkin Pancakes and irresistible Pumpkin Cheesecake.
Fluffy, warmly spiced and served piping hot, the pumpkin pancakes are topped with Marston's aromatic spiced butter for a breakfast that tastes like fall on a plate. They're the kind of seasonal specialty worth waiting all year to enjoy, whether you're gathering with friends for breakfast or treating yourself to a leisurely weekend brunch. And the great pumpkin comeback doesn't end at the griddle.
Save room for Marston's pumpkin cheesecake - rich, creamy and filled with the comforting flavors of the season. Finished with whipped cream and a beautiful presentation, it's equally tempting as the grand finale to a meal or simply enjoyed with a cup of coffee.
Part of the fun of fall at Marston's is the setting. Settle into the restaurant's warm, welcoming dining room or enjoy a crisp autumn day outside on the patio. Pumpkin season doesn't last forever, so enjoy the comeback while you can!
