The Team
Chris Stone
Owner of SDFoodies
A foodie at heart, you can find me at the bar of the latest and greatest restaurant in San Diego enjoying a glass of wine and contemplating my next venture into the Food and Beverage Industry.
When i’m not eating, you can find me walking the farmers market on the hunt for fresh oysters and heirloom tomatoes, hiking the local mountains, taking photos, and playing with my two Australian shepherd pups.
I enjoy traveling the world and experiencing the wide breadth of wonder that the world has to offer. I hope to one day retire to the French countryside to manage a small winery and farm.

Ashley Dunn
Chief Eating Officer
A foodie by association, thanks to the amazing Chris Stone! I was a pretty picky eater growing up, but Chris took me under his wing (and heart ;) ) and introduced me to *flavor*. It means the world to me how much my tastebuds have blossomed, as I think it would have made my late Step Father rather proud (a chef who cooked his daughter way too many plain chicken nuggets back in the day).
When I’m not sipping a glass of brut rose or taking a bubble bath at one of our fun getaways, I’m probably working out on the peloton or kickboxing over at 9round Encinatas. I mean, come on… we eat a lot, I gotta stay a little in shape!
A fun fact about me… I’m the eldest of three, by 11 years! Every now and again you’ll see one or two small pre teens at dinner with us - one a picky eater and one a foodie herself. They’re my world and it’s so fun to bring them along!
