The rewards of Central Coast living are often found off the beaten path, and that includes our fi nest

restaurants. That’s why it’s worth taking the road less traveled by to get to Adelina’s Bistro & Market Place, located in the Monarch Club at Trilogy Central Coast in Nipomo. Chef Pandee Pearson’s menu showcases the freshest foods of the season from local farms. If you shop the Central Coast Farmers Markets it’s likely you’ve seen this passionate chef procuring her fi ne produce and fruit for Adelina’s Bistro. It’s easy to spot the charming Pandee discussing the growing season with her favorite farmers. She’s pushing around a giant shopping cart overfl owing with produce at the peak of season: baby lettuces, cavolo nero, Chinese long beans, fava beans, ripe tomatoes, blood oranges, Meyer lemons, berries, and a rainbow of fl owers to decorate the dining room tables. Adelina’s serves breakfast, lunch and dinner, and every menu showcases her farmer’s market selections. At breakfast, the egg burritos feature a choice of spicy chicken, chorizo, or market veggies. The freshly baked muffi ns and pastries are fi lled with seasonal berries, apples, pears, or sweet pumpkin. The Sunday brunch menu choices include: wild mushroom omelet; grilled asparagus with poached egg, prosciutto, frisee, arugula, and pesto on grilled rustic bread; and traditional eggs Benedict. The lunch menu offers gourmet pizzas from the brick oven, panini, sandwiches, and salads.Pandee’s dinner menu always features gourmet nibbles, appetizers and entrées: fried green tomatoes with lemon aioli; “Naw Ahleeens” style BBQ shrimp with grilled, herb-garlic toasts; local chanterelle mushroom bruschetta with fi g

jam, Cambozola cheese and salsa verde; local halibut with citrus-scented jasmine rice, orange-fennel salad, and blood orange vinaigrette. Pandee’s classic dessert confections, including the freshly-spun ice creams, are also housemade. The reasonably-priced wine list, uncommon in upscale restaurants, offers excellent Central Coast wines. Wines-by-the-glass, priced $5 to $10, feature local favorites like Edna Valley Vineyards, Laetitia, Kenneth Volk, and Turley. The bottle selection includes rarities from artisan producers such as Justin, L’Aventure, and Linne Calodo. Chef Pandee has always said that Adelina’s is the type of restaurant she would have created if it was her own place. Her interest in cooking started as a child, and she can boast (but she doesn’t) of an auspicious career. After graduating from the California Culinary Academy she worked with renowned chefs across the country, including: Wolfgang Puck, Dean Fearing, Cindy Pawlcyn, and Jody Denton. Pandee says her multicultural, health-

conscious cuisine revolves around the fi nest quality, seasonal foods. “I feel the ingredients should be the stars and it’s the chef’s job to create interesting combinations that are complementary and refl ect balance.” When you’re too busy to cook, or on the road, you can call for Adelina’s convenient take-out from the lunch or

dinner menu they’re serving at the time to enjoy at home. They’ve expanded their catering services and can easily accommodate a small, intimate party, or a banquet for 250 people. Pandee tells everyone that cooking isn’t just her job; it’s a lifestyle that’s connected with everything she loves. And you’ll fi nd her passion is expressed in every incredible dining experience you enjoy at Adelina’s Bistro.

Once you’ve visited Opolo on Paso Roble’s beautiful Westside wine trails, like everyone else who’s

experienced it, you’ll be eager to return. Wine aficionados visit this renowned region because they’re searching for more than award-winning wines, they want unforgettable experiences. At Opolo the good times go on whether it’s the weekend or a weekday. Here you’ll enjoy an experience that’s both educational and fun, a delicious barbecue, or indulging in a gourmet winemaker’s dinner in the cellar. And you won’t find snobbism here, there’s always something fun going on. During harvest you can cast off your shoes and stomp grapes barefoot, “I Love Lucy” style.

Visiting the mountain top where Opolo’s highest-elevation vineyard grows tells why co-owner Rick Quinn envisioned his estate here. The region’s ideal climate and soils for growing Pinot Noir, Sangiovese and Zinfandel was proven when he planted those varieties 14-years-ago. Quinn and his partner Dave Nichols know it takes more than spectacular views to attract wine connoisseurs. When the tasting room opened in 2001 they established the guiding principle for the Opolo team: “People and award-winning wines, it’s a happy combination.” The friendly, tasting room staff takes the intimidation away from wine tasting, making the experience enjoyable for everyone.

The wines are estate grown, except when they’re offered exceptional winegrapes grown by their neighbors. Over the years Opolo has sold estate grapes to their peers in Napa Valley and Paso Robles. Quinn and Nichols, both wine lifelong connoisseurs, make their wines with one goal in mind: producing consumer-friendly wines that appeal to every taste. Over the years they expanded

their vineyard plantings to ensure they would always have a source of grapes.

The vintners, both home winemakers before they became partners, have been neighbors in Camarillo, California since 1996. Late that year Quinn told Nichols, “Hey Dave, I just planted 10,000 grapevines in Paso Robles,” and it was the impetus that created Opolo. In 1997 Nichols bought the property adjoining Quinn’s and the gentlemen became partners. They increased their selection of classic varietals by purchasing 200-acres on Paso Roble’s Eastside, renowned for growing exceptional Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon and Petit Verdot.

Opolo’s first wines, Merlot, Syrah, Cabernet Sauvignon, Sangiovese, Zinfandel and Muscat Canelli, were made in 1999. Although they’re respected for classic reds, they’re equally passionate about their whites, including: Viognier, Marsanne, Roussanne, Pinot Grigio and Chardonnay. From the beginning they’ve won awards from the Orange County State Fair, the San Francisco Chronicle

Wine Competition, and judging’s across the country.

The name Opolo, from Quinn’s Yugoslavian heritage, is in reference to a Rosé-style wine made on the Dalmatian Coast. Every weekend you’ll find the barbecue fired-up with Rick’s cevapcici, a Serbian beef and lamb dish, or their signature carne asada

tacos. During Paso Robles’ major wine events, Opolo’s dinner affairs around the barbecue are quite popular.

Opolo’s newest addition is a romantic bed and breakfast among the grapevines where guests wake up to bountiful breakfasts and the idyllic lifestyle of living in wine country. Discover Opolo where the only thing as important as their wines is their desire to provide their guests an unforgettable experience.

The tranquil Santa Maria Valley, located in northern Santa Barbara County, is renowned for the quality of

the elegant Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays. That’s why it’s home to a winery no wine connoisseur would consider missing, Kenneth Volk Vineyards. Like his fellow wine industry pioneers established there, Kenneth “Ken” Volk has been buying grapes grown along the Sisquoc River Valley since 1977. But few can claim the historic value of this winery and vineyard. Ken first earned acclaim for his fine wines when he established Wild Horse Winery in Templeton. In 2003, he sold the horse label, but retirement was hardly on his mind. He realized a long-held dream a year later when he purchased the historic Byron Winery and four-acre vineyard, established in 1981, to launch his family brand, Kenneth Volk Vineyards. Ken considers himself fortunate to have had the rare opportunity to reinvent himself and start a new venture that he describes as: “smaller, better, and slower.” After restoring the celebrated 25-year old winery and tasting room, he opened to the public in 2006. With 34-years of winemaking experience behind him, Ken describes his winery and tasting room as one of the most beautiful, peaceful locations in Santa Barbara County. He explained: “Very few places in the world can surpass Santa Maria Valley for consistently remarkable Chardonnay quality.” Thanks to the completion of the Tepusquet Road bridge, travelers have a convenient route from Foxen Canyon Road to the north side of the Sisquoc River. That made it much easier to get to the historic site, now that it’s nine miles closer for wine lovers traveling up the

Foxen Canyon wine trail from Los Olivos. Ken’s flagship Pinot Noirs and Chardonnays are sourced from the finest vineyards in Santa Maria Valley. Anyone who knows this passionate winemaker can tell you his love of wine is hardly limited to Burgundian varieties. Ken isn’t one of San Luis Obispo County’s favored sons simply for establishing his first winery there. He’s been a champion of fine vineyards on the Central Coast since he started out as home winemaker. He seeks out appellations that have the greatest potential for producing the rare varieties he loves, from Lime Kiln Valley to Santa Maria Valley. He was an advocate of the Central Coast’s artisan wine growers long before other wineries began advertising: “Our wines are made in the vineyard.” Although his focus is on Burgundy’s classic varietals, Ken has an affinity for Cabernet Sauvignon, Merlot, and heirloom varietals that aren’t found among the main stream varieties on most grocery store

shelves. A self-described wine junkie, he’s committed to making rare wines like: Verdelho, Malvasia Bianca, Negrette, Tempranillo, and other hard-to-pronounce, seldom-seen heirloom varieties. Recently, Ken returned to Paso Robles where he opened a tasting room on Highway 46 West at Fat Cat

Farm (previously Sycamore Herb Farm). “I was looking for an opportunity to get back to Paso Robles and establish another tasting room,” Ken explained. “I was extremely fortunate to lease space from Lone Madrone to open a Paso Robles Kenneth Volk Vineyards tasting room where our SLO County friends can easily find us to taste our wines.”

What’s in your bowl? Just about anything you can dream up for an ideal Asian stir-fry at the

new Mongolian barbecue restaurant, Bridgeview Asian Grill. It’s not like anything we’ve had in SLO County until now. Here it’s easy to be health-conscious or as decadent as you want with the ingredients you add to your bowl from the cold food bar. As soon as you walk in the door, you come upon the food bar loaded with good choices. Grab a bowl and fill it with your favorite ingredients, then hand it to the grillers and soon you’ll be savoring every bite of your unique creation. The bar features excellent fresh choices: green onions, bell peppers, mushrooms, pineapple, bamboo shoots, carrots, broccoli, cauliflower, white onions, green and purple cabbage, baby corn, water chestnuts, bean sprouts, spinach, zucchini, and long noodles. The choice of lean, good quality meats includes, chicken, pork, beef, and tofu for vegetarians. Uniquely, they offer many gluten free choices, from the noodles and sauces to soy sauce and beer. The friendly wait staff can help you find good sauces, and suggestions are posted for classic combinations, from sweet and mildly spicy to hot and spicy sauces. Take your bowl to the grillers who will take your name, stir-fry the food in your bowl to perfection, and in a few minutes you’re eating Mongolian barbecue. Located at the SLO train station roundabout in the historic Railroad District, it offers a unique and fun way to dine out. The food is cooked on an authentic Mongolian grill, a round

flattop that fires up to 500-degrees F. The food sizzles as the grillers sauté, and the veggies come out perfectly al dente. The appetizers from the kitchen are a great way to start your meal before heading to the food bar: potstickers, wild pork wings, and the veggie Thai spring rolls each with unique sauce. Many local wines are offered by the glass or bottle. Domestic and imported beers are available individually, and by the bucket which offers better value per bottle. It’s a family friendly place with a value priced kid’s meal, including: a bowl, choice of soda or milk, and soft serve ice cream dessert. If someone in your party doesn’t like Asian foods, that’s not a problem. The newest additions to the menu are the grill burgers, roast beef on a toasted roll with three topping choices: pineapple, mushroom, green peppers, and teriyaki sauce; onions, mushrooms,

and garlic with sweet and sour sauce; or garlic, onions, mushrooms, green peppers, and jalapeno with choice of dipping sauce. The grill salad provides one trip through the food/salad bar (without meat), and your choice of dressing. Stir-frying is easy when you don’t have to prep the food and sauce

ingredients. At Bridgeview, they’ve done the difficult part of cleaning, slicing, and chopping for you. All you have to do is combine your favorite meats and vegetables in the bowl, top it with your delicious sauces and spices, and you’ll be enjoying a great Asian stir-fry in minutes. All of this and value prices, too, you’ll be looking for excuses to return to Bridgeview Asian Grill.

Sizzling Good!


When word got out that the popular Tastes of the Valleys (TOTV) in Solvang opened a

clone of their wine bar in Pismo Beach, local wine lovers were excited. A sophisticated wine bar like TOTV makes it easy to discover new artisan brands, new varietals, and new blends. It’s also the perfect setting for meeting like-minded wine aficionados. TOTV has a Central Coast focus when it comes to wines, but their contemporary, upscale tasting room is reminiscent of the vogue Ferry Plaza Wine Merchant in San Francisco. TOTV features an array of excellent wines available by the taste, glass, bottle, or flight. “Every wine in the house is available by the glass,” said owner Ash Mehta, who always has over 200 wines from 70 or more artisan wineries. “It gives people the opportunity to order a glass of highly-limited Pinot Noir, like Seasmoke, our guests love that.” A Central Coast favorite thanks to the Oscar-winning movie, Sideways, Seasmoke is found here among many other fabulous Central Coast wines, including: Au Bon Climat, Beckmen, Jada, L’Aventure, Le Cuvier, Margerum, Tablas Creek, and many more. The inventory is always evolving, and they frequently bring in gems from Napa and Sonoma valleys. Ash and his wife Lissa Hallberg enjoy asking locals about their favorite wineries. Afterward the couple visits those recommended to consider spotlighting their wines. TOTV Pismo Beach is owned by Ash and Lissa. The original Solvang wine bar is co-owned with partners. Before opening TOTV near their Shell Beach home, they asked

their partners’ permission to use the name and they agreed. “It was a good thing for both tasting rooms,” Lissa pointed out. “When travelers discover one of the tasting rooms, the experience motivates them to stop in at the other. They can continue the experience while traveling up and down the coast.” TOTV’s wine friendly menu offers: Full of Life Flatbreads; a cheese, salami, and cured meat platter; Dukkah, an addictive dry dip; and mini desserts and chocolate truffles that pair incredibly well with their excellent dessert wines. On special occasions there’s also Swiss raclette. They offer so many great wines by the glass because of their state of the art wine preservation system. The Wine Station by Napa Technology uses argon gas to prevent oxidation. The best values are the wine flights priced $10, $15, and $20 for six tastes. Flights are available from one producer, like Au Bon Climat, or custom flights made up based on

your varietal preference. TOTV offers wine-by-the-glass specials daily, and you’ll love stopping in for “Thursday Wine Madness:” prices on ten or more wines-by-the-glass are lowered, starting from $5, and the ultra premium flight is reduced to $15. Another bonus, their prices are usually lower

than a winery’s retail prices. “Our focus is being a local bottle shop where you can taste before buying,” Ash explained. “You’ll rarely find a bottle priced above retail.” Flights of wines are served one glass at a time to better provide an educational experience. “We’re serious about wine,” Ash concluded. “People come here for the wine tasting experience.”

Luna Red, the newest restaurant to open in downtown SLO, is quickly becoming the hottest gathering

spot for its epicurean meals and chic, comfortable ambiance. It features global cuisine in intriguing menus that you’ll love paired with artisan wines and signature Soju cocktails. It’s the perfect spot for meeting friends and loved ones to indulge in an extraordinary dining experience in a warm, inviting atmosphere. The new menu was created by Chef Shaun Behrens, who earned respect for his international cuisine at Robin’s in Cambria. His global menus at Luna Red are sure to entice locavores, wine aficionados, and adventurous diners throughout SLO County to visit this new restaurant. The contemporary cuisine is featured in several menu sections: tapas divided by, raw, fresh, crispy, hot, and fire; a page devoted to artisan cheeses and salumi that can be ordered separately or in unique flights; and dinner featuring salads, in between, entrées, and snacks and sides. There are many irresistible possibilities for lunch, dinner, or a late-night indulgence. “Shaun’s menu offers global foods made with locally grown, artisan foods,” explained restaurateur Robin Covey, co-owner of Luna Red with his partner, Shanny Covey. The Covey’s restaurants, Novo and Robin’s, offer international foods that Robin describes as ethnically pure. Their new Luna Red, however, is quite different. “This is globally inspired food that will please the foodies, and it’s all wine friendly,” Robin explained. “The new menus were created entirely by Shaun, and we find them very exciting.” Behrens explained that everything is made from scratch, from the dipping sauces, ketchup, and mustard to the

cured meats and smoked seafood. The chef has an impressive resume: he worked with renowned chefs in Portland, Oregon and San Francisco, who shared their knowledge and insights with an aspiring apprentice. Those early professional experiences instilled his passion for shopping the farmers’ markets for organic foods produced at artisan farms. A glance at Behren’s menus shows his support of local sustainable farms producing cheese, mushrooms, local seafood, and more. Luna Red’s stunning dining room features an interesting contrast between antiquity and modern concepts. The contemporary bar focuses not only on fine wines and signature Soju drinks, but on the cold dishes. Unlike other places, guests are provided an opportunity to connect with the chefs in the exhibition kitchen behind the bar. There, you can observe the chefs preparing cold plates and desserts, while pulling ingredients from antique jars filled with housemade delicacies. The bar provides the perfect respite while waiting

for a table, or enjoying tapas and drinks with friends. The dining room, separated into three distinctive sections, provides a warm, comfortable atmosphere for enjoying epicurean meals. The chic, sophisticated rooms are dressed in earthy tones of dark chocolate and red, splashed with notes

of yellow and green. Lush, live trees and low light chandeliers separate the lively bar from the cozy, intimate sections of the dining room. The red room in back provides the ideal ambiance for every private party. For an unforgettable night out, there’s no better place to gather at the bar or table than in the comfortable, inviting ambiance you’ll find at Luna Red.

When the GREENHOUSE Grill & Café opened early this year, this green dining establishment

quickly became a local favorite. But you won’t find this contemporary restaurant downtown. Located in the Embassy Suites in the Promenade Shopping Center, this popular hotel has served SLO well for over three decades. It caters to locals for everything from weddings and conventions to Bar/Bat Mitzvahs and Quinceañeras. The GREENHOUSE Grill & Café provides spacious, open-air dining with a relaxed ambiance. The concept was inspired by Chef Timothy Hulbert whose menu features the bounty of artisan foods produced on the Central Coast. Locals love the new concept and have made it a favorite spot for both lunch and dinner. Hulbert completely revamped the menu. A meal here assures guests the freshest meat, fish and produce from artisans at local farms, and some specialists from outside the area. The new menu features: grass-fed Hearst Ranch beef and fresh fish from North America’s only 100-percent sustainable seafood company. Hulbert, a native of southern California, started his culinary career in 1982 in Woodland Hills. An avid fisherman and skier, Hulbert jumped at the opportunity work at a restaurant in the Rocky Mountains. His next career move was to a four-star resort in Colorado Springs. “It was at the Cheyenne Mountain Inn where I really developed my culinary skills. I spent ten years there: learning garde manger, ice carving, butchering, fine dining and banquets.” In 1996, Hulbert moved to Las Vegas to become Executive Sous Chef at the Hard Rock Hotel. Four years later he became Executive Chef for Bahama Breeze, a

Caribbean-themed restaurant chain.Returning to Las Vegas in 2005, he was Executive chef at Planet Hollywood Resort & Casino. Recently, Chef Hulbert was featured on the History Channel’s Modern Marvels for his work in Las Vegas. In 2010, Hulbert returned to the Central Coast, where his family lives, and took over the position of Executive Chef at Embassy Suites. In addition to the GREENHOUSE Grill & Café and hotel banquets department, he offers off-site catering for any size event. Hulbert noted that you’ll find his cuisine at all of the local wine and food festivals. The chef’s menu features many enticing dishes. Starters include: Ahi tuna ceviche in a spicy citrus marinade with fried taro root chips; and baby spinach salad with caramelized onions, imported bleu cheese, oven-dried prosciutto, hard-boiled egg, and lemon walnut vinaigrette. The delicious entrée selection is equally alluring: a 14 oz.-cut, grass-fed, Hearst

Ranch rib eye steak with fresh herb-rub, and Yukon Gold mashed potatoes; Snake River Pork tenderloin, with citrus rum demi-glaze, black bean and corn salsa, mashed sweet yams, and coconut cream spinach; and fresh sautéed Pacific sand dabs with rock crab and shrimp, lime basil butter, and edamame hash.

For a sweet conclusion, try the chef’s special bananas Foster tostada, fresh banana slices sautéed in butter, rum, brown sugar and cream, with vanilla bean ice cream in a crispy tortilla cup. Whether you’re planning a wedding, conducting a business seminar, or hungry for a delicious, healthful meal, you’ll find it all at Embassy Suite’s GREENHOUSE Grill & Café.

Thomas Hill Organics (THO), a very popular Paso Robles bistro and wine bar, is dedicated to serving

the freshest, local organic produce, and highlighting unique Central Coast wines. But there’s another important distinction that sets this restaurant apart from others: founders Joe and Debbie Thomas created it to showcase their freshly harvested organic fruit and produce from their original business, Thomas Hill Farms. Open for lunch, dinner, and Sunday brunch, THO’s menu changes weekly to focus on foods at the peak of the season. The Thomas’s source grass-fed and natural beef and lamb, free range poultry, rabbit, and wild fi sh, from local ranches and fi sheries. Breads for the table are custom made by local artisan bakers. THO’s menu by their talented chef, Julie Simon, offers a fabulous array of dishes she created expressly for THO. Among the delectable lunch choices: THO heirloom tomato-fennel gazpacho and Vietnamese BBQ pork belly sandwich with local vegetables and aioli. Vegetarians love the grilled THO apple and avocado sandwich with whipped chevre infused Humboldt Fog cheese, sunfl ower sprouts, THO apple butter, and fi eld green salad. Born in Paris, Simon’s family loved sharing good food and stories at the table, which inspired her to become a chef. After moving to Paso Robles in 2004, she apprenticed under two extraordinary SLO County women chefs, Pandee Pearson and Meagen Loring. “Julie’s enthusiasm for fresh, seasonal, organic ingredients, and her creative ability for unique food pairings made her a perfect match for Thomas Hill Organics,” explained Debbie who manages the bistro and wine bar, and warmly welcomes her guests.

Thomas Hill Farms, located amidst Paso Robles’ eastside vineyards, organically farms heirloom varieties of fruit, vegetables, and nuts. The ten-acre farm features over 900 fruit and nut trees, a vineyard of Italian wine varieties, raised beds of lettuce, greens, garlic, tomato fi elds, and many other seasonal vegetables and herbs. Among their unique specialties they grow Russian kale, dandelions, and arugula. Farm tours with lunch at THO can be arranged for groups of six or more. Certifi ed Organic, the farm offers a Community Supported Agriculture (CSA) program allowing locals to pre-order organic produce, freshly-harvested at the height of the season, and pick it up at THO or Cass Winery. The Thomas’s also buy organically grown produce from other Paso Robles artisan farms and feature their names on THO’s menus. Dinner entrées include: tamarind-glazed halibut cheeks, with coconut cream, baby bok choy, and smoked shiitake

mushrooms, a local favorite; and grilled lamb sirloin with roasted caulifl ower puree, smoked grapes, and green olive-almond salsa verde. Sunday brunch features delicacies like: Vietnamese BBQ pork belly sandwich with fried egg, carrot sambal, avocado, aioli, and fresh fruit salad; or baby potato and Oakhill oyster mushrooms, haricot vert,

sweet corn, sherry vinaigrette, crème fraîche, and prosciutto. Paso Roble’s temperate climate allows alfresco dining on the patio year round. At dinner, guests enjoy watching cooks work beside the wood-fi red oven on the patio, preparing pizzas with toppings like Morbier cheese, THO arugula and fi gs, and salami. The Thomas’s are dedicated to quality and that is why THO rates among Paso Robles’ fi nest dining destinations.

Few Americans would think of visiting a historic monument for a great meal, yet you’ll fi nd this rare dining

experience at the historic Paso Robles Inn. Over the 145-years the inn has been open it has always been the social hub for Paso Roblans. Adjacent to the Downtown Park, the inn features the crowd-pleasing Steakhouse, an excellent choice for dining at breakfast, lunch, or dinner. It’s one of the most popular restaurants among locals and the wine connoisseurs who visit Paso Robles year round to explore the artisan farms and wineries. Owned by the Martin Family since 1999, the Paso Robles Inn has served locals and travelers since 1864. It’s renowned for its beautiful gardens and natural mineral baths. This destination inn was built next to the main artesian well established by Franciscan padres in 1797. The Martin’s changed the old restaurant to make it more casual and inviting, attractive to both locals and travelers. With that concept in mind, they created the Paso Robles Inn Steakhouse. Under CEO Noreen Martin’s direction, the Steakhouse dining room was recently remodeled. The new look is bright, cheerful, and contemporary with the addition of brick pillars, carpeting, and new upholstery on the over-sized booths. Giant picture windows behind the comfortable booths provide guests awesome views of the serene garden. Outside, on the garden patio, a fi replace and fi re-pits with cozy chairs offer guests a great setting for enjoying a meal, or appetizers with a cocktail or a great Paso Robles wine from their wine list, which includes imported wines. Upstairs the Cattlemen’s Lounge, popular among

Paso Roblans for its western theme, was also renovated from the fl oor to the ceiling. Its patio offers alfresco seating with an excellent view overlooking the beautiful Paso Robles Park. Inspired by the bounty of fresh, local meats, vegetables, fruit, and artisan products grown in Paso Robles, the Steakhouse menus focus on farm-to-table themes in traditional dishes with modern twists. The upscale dinner menu features soulful starters, including: Sicilian meatball with tomato sauce, parmesan and garlic bread, or pancetta wrapped quail with heirloom tomatoes; and creative entrée’s, like herb-crusted Morro Bay halibut with black-eyed-pea succotash, and seared scallops with chorizo and Kalamata olives. Everyone loves eating classic breakfasts at the original circular counter in the coffee shop. Seating in the Steakhouse dining room and the garden tables are always available, too. A local favorite at lunch is the build your own burger menu with

a wide array of choices. You can order certifi ed Angus beef, Kobe beef, or portabello mushroom then choose selections from the buns to the tasty toppings and sauces. The desserts, like all their menus, offers fresh seasonal fruit and berries in irresistible creations: a selection of gelatos, sorbets, and ices;

fruit crisp with vanilla bean gelato; lemon crème brulee with chocolate pistachio biscotti. Chocolate lovers crave the dish called “simply chocolate,” a combination of warm chocolate cake, chocolate pave, and chocolate gelato. If you’re seeking a special dinner experience, breakfast, Sunday brunch, or just want to relax while sharing small plates and Paso Robles wines or cocktails, you’ll fi nd it all at the Steakhouse.

The moment you pull up to Big Bubba’s Bad B.B.Q. it’s obvious that this is not your average

restaurant. Seeing those Wild West style fort towers reaching into the sky put you on notice that this is going to be an experience you will never forget. Walking up to the front door along the wooden sidewalks and past the outdoor fire pit, it hits you – the smoky smell of award-winning barbeque.

As you pull open the front door the sound of country music fills your ears and the sight of your smiling hostess in her black and white cow-print shirt immediately transport you into a world of non-stop fun. As your hostess guides you along the bridge over the indoor pond you notice the mechanical bull putting a rider to the test. At this point the kids are already tugging on your arm insisting on getting to ride the bull, which your hostess assures always takes it easy on the little buck-a-roos.

As you arrive at your table, the family has a few laughs with each other about the table being situated inside a jail cell and finds their seats. As you settle in, you realize that everything that happens at Big Bubba’s is all about fun. Starting with the bull, extending to the incredible western décor and winding up with the menu, fun is everywhere.

There’s a selection of specialty drinks for both the adults and the kids to get the meal kicked off and the menu features award-winning barbeque which

is smoked to perfection. Whether you choose the tri-tip steak, huge beef ribs or the baby back ribs you’ll be tasting barbeque at its very best. For those who are looking something on the lighter side, Big Bubba’s signature salads like the Crazy Cranberry Salad the Tri-tip Salad are not to be missed. For the little ones, Big Bubba’s has put together a menu that offers up a variety of items to satisfy the pickiest of eaters and portions that are just right.

While you’re enjoying this amazing experience together as a family, you’ll share plenty of smiles as you watch the entire serving staff halt and entertain you with choreographed dance routines a few times each hour. As the family takes its turn on the mechanical bull, the souvenir photos you’re taking home

will always remind you of that special day Big Bubba’s. You see, special days are what Big Bubba’s Bad B.B.Q. is all about, and if it’s your birthday you’re in luck, because at Big Bubba’s the cowboy or cowgirl gets their entrée on the house.

As you approach the end of your time at Big

Bubba’s Bad B.B.Q. you realize that this hasn’t been just another trip out for lunch or dinner with your family. This has been an experience that all of you will remember for as long as you live. Because at Big Bubba’s everyday is a celebration of family, good friends and memories to last a lifetime.

Over the past decade, Otter Rock Café has been a favorite of locals and tourists from all over

the world. With entertainment nightly, a full service bar, friendly atmosphere, and classic seafood by a popular local chef, there’s something for everyone at Otter Rock. Owned and managed for nearly ten years by Jaime Parker, a vivacious young woman, she keeps the atmosphere lively and fun. She’s well known by her favorite quote, which you may have heard on the radio over the past few years: “Don’t be snooty, shake your booty on down Harbor Street in the heart of the Embarcadero!” One of the hardest working women in Morro Bay, Jaime brings in the most popular bands on the Central Coast, Thursday through Sunday nights. Karaoke is always entertaining every Tuesday and Wednesday night. For football lovers, Monday night games play on three TVs with drink specials during the season. Once the games are over, she brings in a solo acoustic guitarist Monday evenings. “I love music! I was raised at the Monterey Jazz Festival,” confessed Jaime, a local who graduated from Morro Bay High School. “I’m always the first person to dance when the band starts. But I like to get people up and dancing so I’m not the only one having fun.” “We’re the only place where you can dock and dine while enjoying wonderful food, and fabulous entertainment,” said Jaime, whose private dock on the bay can accommodate yachts up to 65-ft. Most visitors remember the Otter Rock as the only place where you could still smoke, but Jaime changed the policy two years ago. She reserves an outdoor, smoking

patio with a beautiful view of the bay. The covered patio accommodates up to 30 guests for private dinner parties, anniversaries, and receptions. No matter what time of day you visit, Jaime’s fun, friendly staff will treat you like family. “Kasey Hayes, the best server, manager ever, has been with me six years,” Jaime added. Breakfast, available until 1 p.m. daily, offers the classic bacon and eggs, omelets, biscuits and gravy, Mexican scramble, eggs Benedict, breakfast veggie croissant, and more, most dishes under $10. Jaime explained: “I’ve always been blessed to have good chefs, like Paco and Adrian who have been with me for years.” Last January, she had the opportunity to hire chef Chris Logan, a local favorite. At his family’s restaurant, Gourmet Grub, he earned fame for his specialties. Jaime invited Chris to recreate those dishes for her menu, such as: butternut squash soup,

kung pao, and chicken curry with mangos and almonds. Chris describes the latter dish as sweet, spicy, and crunchy. “I like to do a lot of Asian dishes with an American twist,” said Chris who has cooked professionally for seven years in Morro Bay. “I like vegetables, and use local fruit and

produce whenever possible.” His specials include dishes like pesto-crusted halibut and eggs Florentine. Homemade pie is another specialty of his: from making a perfect, flaky crust to filling them with seasonal fruits and berries. But he admits everyone keeps asking for his apple pie. The Otter Rock Café -- bringing food and music to your soul.

A Sampling of our Menu

If you seek fine dining in Paso Robles, Il Cortile Ristorante provides its guests the soulful cuisine of Italy set in a

romantic, contemporary dining room. Few restaurants have been as enthusiastically received by Paso Roblans, and wine connoisseurs here to discover Paso Robles wine country. The passionate owners, chef Santos and Carole MacDonal, do everything to ensure their guests enjoy an unforgettable experience. The friendly, professional wait staff provides expert service throughout your meal. The atmosphere is sophisticated and comfortable, but never pretentious. The energy-charged room is always filled with a lively crowd, whether they are celebrating a special occasion or the gourmet meal chef Santos prepared for them. The MacDonal’s celebrate the restaurant’s first anniversary in November. Not surprisingly, the ristorante immediately become a destination for food and wine lovers attracted by the talented chef’s soulful creations, and Carole’s well-chosen wine list featuring fine wines from Italy and Paso Robles. “We created a wine list that included both local and Italian wines, and we strive to provide a selection that pairs well with Santo’s food,” Carole explained. “We wanted to have new and old world wines, and love the fact that we have the same varietals from Paso Robles and Italy. They can be completely different, which makes it fun to taste them side by side.” Chef Santos would never dream of resting on his laurels; he changes the menu frequently to present the freshest local foods of the season, and extraordinary daily specials. The exacting chef is involved in every detail at Il Cortile: shopping at the

Templeton’s Farmers’ Market; creating menus and nightly specials; and cooking with his kitchen team. Among his starter dishes is the uncommon grilled octopus with fresh vegetables marinated in spicy vinaigrette. A special menu section features mozzarella-based dishes, including an irresistible crostini con burrata with caramelized shallots and crispy pancetta—an extraordinary treat that’s quite unique. Chef Santos spent 15-years working in in Santa Monica’s most notable Italian restaurants, before he and Carole moved to Paso Robles to open the restaurant they dreamed of owning. The chef’s amazing entrées include delights like: tagliolini con coniglio, slow-roasted rabbit in a white wine, herb sauce; pappardelle al ragù di agnello, fresh wide noodles with lamb ragù; filetto di salmone, salmon with fresh olive oil, lemon, and herbs; pan-roasted, prosciutto-stuffed quail with red wine reduction; and risotto cinghiale, risotto with wild boar and porcini mushrooms in a tomato-based

sauce. The latest addition at Il Cortile is the chef’s tasting menu. Guests leave it up to chef Santos to prepare a five-course meal that’s guaranteed to be filled with surprises that aren’t on the menu: black squid ink pasta with lobster; lingua di vitello, veal tongue; or tagliolini with black truffles. “Each course is a surprise, even to me,”

Carole laughed. “Santos comes up with it on the spot, which is why we jokingly call it, ‘il segreto,’ the secret.” Make your meal unforgettable by allowing Carole to select the wines best suited for each dish. The chef’s exquisite, housemade desserts, panna cotta with strawberry sauce, and custard-filled canolli, provide the perfect, sweet conclusion to this epicurean Italian meal.

Everyone loves an Irish pub, whether it’s a neighborhood favorite, or a place discovered while traveling. It’s

the perfect place for enjoying good times with old friends, making new friends, and enjoying fresh drafts while watching your team stomp the competition. When it comes to the food served, however, not all Irish pubs are alike. That’s why you’ll love Rooney’s, chef Anthony Endy’s food will have you coming back regularly for another taste of his delicious cuisine. Once seated, you’re greeted with a complimentary brown paper bag fi lled with warm, housemade potato chips and green onion dip, they’re addictive. In fact, you can’t go wrong with anything on Rooney’s menu: tender, juicy, and perfectly-spiced beer-brined chicken; house ground hamburgers feature Angus beef brisket and chuck; and the signature burger, “this piggy” with freshly ground pork shoulder, chorizo, and bacon on fresh potato bun with slaw, bacon, and pepper Jack cheese. The pig roast, a family dinner, features a whole smoked pig, slaw, horseradish-sweet potato salad, roast apples, baby greens salad, and peanut butter pie. The pub’s beautiful bric-a-brac, antique whiskey bottles, and stained glass windows were imported from Ireland. The ambiance is warm, friendly, and lively, like an authentic Irish pub. The servers are exceptionally friendly and accommodating. Previously Anthony worked at Chef Rick’s, Wine Cask, and Los Olivos Café, the latter where he met the pub’s owner, Tim Rooney. Tim remembered: “My family dined at Los Olivos Café and everything we tried was phenomenal. I interviewed Anthony who was the right fi t for our pub;

he’s passionate about cooking.” “My family and I visited Ireland to visit the pubs before creating our own,” explained Tim, recently retired after 30-years in Santa Barbara County Law Enforcement. Brewmaster Dan Hilker of Santa Maria Brewing Company makes six styles of beer at Rooney’s. These great brews draw crowds who come to watch football on Saturdays, and NFL Sunday Ticket on seven giant fl at-screen TVs. The Sunday brunch menu offers delicious treats: wake and bac burritos, corned beef hash, chicken and waffl es, and housemade granola with fresh berries and yogurt. The fresh fi sh and chips come with a huge pile of house “criss-cut” fries, and slaw. Cut in large strips then Harp’s beer-battered, it’s served perfectly crisp. The classic tartar sauce hits the right note of tang and creaminess. Endy’s often found out front, roasting suckling pigs in the giant smoker for the nightly specials. It’s also used for catering private parties.

The chef cooks ribs, brisket, and pork roasts on the huge grill. Other crowd-pleasers include: crunchy crab cake tots fi lled with chunks of crab, with two dipping sauces: sriracha mayo, honey and lime, and classic cocktail. Loch Duarte salmon with crispy red potatoes and wild arugula

with cucumbers and red onion tossed with herb vinaigrette. Every dish served here is plentiful and satisfying. In fact, the excellent quality food, beers, wines, and drinks served here are the reason you’ll always fi nd it busy. Rooney’s Irish Pub was everything their neighbors hoped for, and then some. Anthony concluded: “We love serving high quality, fresh food in a fun and lively atmosphere!”

Serving the Central Coast since 1973

you can nd our high quality seafood, sourced from environmentally

responsible and sustainable sources at more than 300 local

restaurants and retailers.

Ask for Central Coast

Seafoodwherever you shop

or dine!

As our world becomes more complicated, it is not only the law for us to eat what is in season, but

it is also important to support our local, environmentally responsible shermen in the harbors of Santa Barbara, Morro Bay, Los Angeles, San Francisco or San Diego. And oh the delicious sh we get to look forward to! Spiny lobsters, albacore tuna, yellowtail, opah, black cod, California halibut, sword sh, snapper, ridgeback shrimp, squid, urchin, Paci c dover sole, rex sole, white sea bass and sand dabs! All are seasonal and from sustainable sheries and are rich in vitamins, low in fat and full of avor. It makes sense, doesn’t it? That if we eat more local products, then we are naturally doing what is right for our community and our environment.

With the world racing through technological advances and zooming transportation systems, and the fact that most of us have been able to get whatever we want from faraway lands at break-back speeds, perhaps it is time for all of us to enjoy our local bounties. And, just like that fresh in-season strawberry that lls our mouth with sweet bursts in early May, so does that rst bite of savory California halibut after a long winter of waiting. For this season, enjoy local sword as it is abundant during the months of October to December.
