Creamy\, delicately seasoned egg salad layered between soft white bread for a nostalgic\, no-frills bite that has defined tournament fare for generations.\n\n\nPecan Almond Caramel Corn\, $5\n\nA sweet Southern nod. Warm caramel glaze coats roasted pecans and almonds\, folded into crisp popcorn for a balanced bite of crunch\, richness\, and subtle indulgence.\n\n\nWhite Cheddar “Golf Ball” Cheese Ball\, $5\n\nA playful interpretation of the game itself. Hand-formed into a golf ball silhouette\, this sharp white cheddar cheese ball is served over a bed of fresh arugula with crackers for a refined\, shareable snack with a wink of tradition.\n\n\n\nPair these classic bites with a glass of estate wine and settle in for the round in a relaxed\, vineyard setting.
