Zach McIntyre’s Weekend Picks for Jan 24-26

This weekend is all about food and education!

Mambo Italiano | Vesuvio Carmel | Fri

Let’s kick off the weekend with one of my favorite things… Italian food.  Enjoy a brief trip to Italy with Chef Pepe’s four-course menu, and live music! The event starts at 6:30, with dinner set to hit the table at 7pm. Tickets are $75. 

10th Annual Whalefest Monterey | Old Fisherman's Wharf | Sat & Sun 

Now let’s move onto something free! It’s time for the 10th Annual Whalefest Monterey. Head out to the Old Fisherman's Wharf on Saturday and Sunday from 10am-5pm for a fun and educational experience for the whole family. This event will have tons of exhibits and games to help you learn about the biodiversity of the Monterey Bay. This event is free. 

12th Annual Crab & Shrimp Boil | North County Recreation, Castroville | Sat

And I think this weekend it's all about the food. Do you like shrimp and crab? Then I've got you covered. The 12th Annual Crab & Shrimp Boil goes down in Castroville on Saturday from 5:30-9pm.
