Together we will learn about each club’s history and have the opportunity to taste the cuisine in a variety of private culinary lunches, dinners and a gala dine-around tasting pool party,  complete with a silent and live auction by Grand Stand Sports to raise funds for Peace and Fundación Punta de Mita. 

The exciting journey over three nights and four days in and around Punta Mita will allow you to explore the private golf and country club world of Food, Chefs, Fine Wines, and Cocktails. 

The two-day Golf Kitchen Cup will take place on both Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Courses – Bahia and Pacifico. There will be a 4 hole shootout amongst the Chefs to kick off the event. You will enjoy getting to know these talented Chefs, and some may even inspire your culinary and golf horizons, look out because some play golf very well!
