Walk with History
The Walk with History YouTube channel started in March of 2021 and was born out of the desire to share history and to educate people on how it still impacts us today. Jennifer’s lifelong interest in history and Scott’s desire to tell stories through video, resulted the fast-growing Walk with History YouTube community and budding Talk with History podcast. Together, they visit historic locations with their family, share history with the world, and educate you on why a seemingly small event is still so significant.
Walk with History is for the curious, the explorers, and the history lovers out there.

DEBORAH SCOTT
EXECUTIVE CHEF & PARTNER OF

Coasterra, Indigo Grill,
C Level / Island Prime, Vintana
As one of San Diego’s most renowned celebrity chefs, Deborah Scott is known
for her diverse tastes and ability to create innovative dishes with an emphasis on
presentation. Chef Scott first caught the eye of restaurateurs David and Lesley
Cohn in 1995 when her affinity for fusion landed her as the head of Kemo Sabe,
the Pacific Rim infused concept formerly housed in Hillcrest.
Her latest endeavor and most ambitious project to date, Coasterra, opened in
August 2015 directly adjacent to C Level/Island Prime. A project nearly a decade
in the making, Coasterra is a $15+ million bayfront modern Mexican restaurant,
lounge, and event space on Harbor Island. With Chef Deborah at the helm, the
28,000 square-foot venue offers a compelling combination of panoramic views of
San Diego’s downtown skyline, carefully crafted Mexican dishes, and tequila-
focused cocktails.
