I will need to know the weight of the two people riding. Both parties need to be in good health, and be able to possibly help with the set up and takedown of the balloon. Some of the experience comes from a team effort. It makes the experience much more fun to take part of a team effort.

The Dinner Package

We at the Magnolia Springs Bed & Breakfast have teamed up with Jesse’s Restaurant to bring you this wonderful dining package. The restaurant is located  2/10’s of a mile from the B&B, serving fabulous food and drinks within easy walking distance!

Jesse’s Restaurant Executive Chef, Gannon Leary

Gannon was raised on the Mississippi Gulf Coast and moved to Mobile in 2001.  His formal training started at Commander’s Palace in New Orleans.  He branched out next and moved to Beaver Creek, Colorado where he was a Chef at Splendido Resort.  The Gulf Coast called him home where he was Executive Chef at Heron Lakes Country Club. Locals know Gannon’s delicious food mostly from his years as the Executive Chef at The Colony Grill in downtown Fairhope where he worked until they closed the doors.  We are blessed to have him as an integral part of our team/family at Jesse’s.  He has taken our food and menu leaps and bounds above where it has ever been.  Unlike many chef’s, Gannon is a people person.  He is often in the dinning room greeting and chatting up guests.

Jesse’s Restaurant is only one of four restaurants in Alabama listed in the James Beard Foundation annual Restaurant Directory! The foundation was founded in 1985 by Julia Child, and its advisory board is made up by some of the top culinary professionals in America.

Our Dinner Package includes the following:
