Picture two blocks of these lighted concentric circles in downtown SanJose — and you’ll have plenty of time to stroll through them. The

installation goes up Nov. 3 and will remain in place for two or threemonths. (Photo courtesy of Sonic Runway)

Heads up San Jose, here comes ‘Sonic Runway’

Downtown San Jose has received an infusion of colorfullights in recent months — notably the illuminating sculptureatop The Pierce apartments near Interstate 280 — but therehasn’t been a big public draw at City Hall since Zero Oneturned the rotunda dome into a canvas.

That changes Nov. 2 when the public art piece called “SonicRunway” makes its debut along Santa Clara Street fromFourth to Sixth streets. The opening celebration runs 6-8p.m.

The installation, which encourages visitors to walk throughthe display of changing, pulsating concentric lights, wascreated by artists Rob Jensen and Warren Trezevant. Theytook it to Burning Man in 2016 and then to London.

It will remain in San Jose for two to three months, accordingto Kerry Adams-Hapner, the city’s director of cultural affairs,as part of a long “Playa to Paseo” public art partnership withthe Burning Man organizers.

A weekend getaway tobeachy Davenport, oysters,croissants and all

By Amber Turpin

Northern California’s coastline always seems like a summer fun-in-the-sun kind of destination. But as any Santa Cruz or Half Moon Baylocal will tell you, summer is often the foggiest, drippiest time ofyear. Fall is the season of hot weather, golden light and harvest atits height. And the little town of Davenport, 10 miles north ofdowntown Santa Cruz, makes a perfect weekend getaway ordaytrip.

On this particular autumn morning, our first stop is Davenport’sWhale City Bakery, Bar & Grill, which draws an astonishing mix ofcustomers, from the regulars perched on their well-worn bar stoolsto the tour-bus crowds from all corners of the globe, all waiting inline alongside wind-blown surfers for the bakery’s signature stuffedcroissants.

THINGS TO DO

Page 5: SVCA & NACE PARTY PHOTOS€¦ · in San Mateo and Cupertino by this company, which has been traveling the globe since 2005. Headed by artistic director Constantine Pinchuk and ballet

Regardless of who you find yourself cozied up with, there’s always afriendly welcome and generous servings of delicious comfort fare,served by three generations at this family-owned business. It’s a mom-and-pop place, but one with a well-curated beer and wine list of locallabels, vegan and gluten-free pastries, and a custom coffee blendroasted by Alta Organic Coffee down the road.

Fully (and perhaps overly) satiated, we jump in the car for a brief back-roads adventure to the Swanton Pacific Ranch for some U-pick applefun. Cal Poly actually owns this 3,200-acre property, which wasdonated to the college in 1993 by Cal Poly alum and Orchard SupplyHardware founder Al Smith, who hoped that the thriving ranch couldbe used for educational, recreational and agricultural purposes.Students, staff and faculty live and work here, focusing on resourceconservation and sustainability. The seasonal U-pick apple programoffers 16 varieties of organic apples on two acres, accessible via thehonor system. It’s a lovely, direct way to source some fruit for yournext pie. We especially loved the dramatically dark Sali Red Deliciousvariety

Another farm option along this Highway One stretch is Swanton BerryFarm. Swanton is the first certified organic strawberry farm in thenation, and it was the first organic farm to sign a contract with theUnited Farm Workers of America, a major progressive step towardworkers’ rights within this demanding industry. The U-pick strawberryseason generally ends in September, but not to worry. The cozy farmstand remains open year-round, offering baked treats, coffee, jamsand even hot soup.

Nearly everything in Davenport boasts an interesting backstory, andBonny Doon Vineyard is certainly no exception. Randall Grahmstarted his label in 1983 in Bonny Doon, just up the hill fromDavenport. A dramatic rise to fame and some serious wine-empirebuilding — at one point, it was the 28th largest winery in the U.S. —eventually led to a sudden refocus. Grahm sold off his biggest brandsand the original winery and returned to what started it all: a passion forwinemaking. Coming full circle, he opened this Bonny Doon Vineyardtasting room in 2013. It’s a beautiful place to linger and learn moreabout this very original label. Also, they have some perfect bottles —notably the briny Picpoul — to pair with a beach picnic this afternoon.

Still full from that delicious breakfast, we decide to do a bit of shoppingfirst, so we duck into the vintage Airstream set up in the lot next to theBonny Doon tasting room. This is Slow Coast, which is not just a storeor design brand, it’s a philosophy.

Davenport’s Slow Coast stocks artisanal products that range fromgoat-milk soap to hand-dyed indigo tea towels. (Courtesy AmberTurpin)

Founded in 2003 by marine biologist and conservationist Wallace J.Nichols, Slow Coast is all about the stretch of coastline between HalfMoon Bay and Santa Cruz, and the shop is all about promoting theproducts and artisans of the region. Inside the 1954 Airstream, we findsoft plaid shirts, local goat-milk soap, handmade jewelry, honeys,bitters, perfumes, even hand-dyed indigo tea towels. It is definitelyworth making the family wait a few minutes while you peruse thewares. (They can take a nap on the outdoor daybed.)

Up until a few months ago, the American Abalone Farms was a little-known gem to anyone outside the wholesale market. If you wanted tobuy its sustainable farm-raised California red abalone directly, therewas a short window in which to do it — it was only open to the publicon Saturdays for a few hours. Then a smart staffer got savvy aboutwhat would draw the line of tourists coming down Highway One:oysters!

Now you can stop in anytime between 10 a.m. and 3 p.m. on Saturdayand Sunday and pick up fresh raw oysters sourced from Marin andfarther north, shucked onsite or ready to take away on ice. Wesampled super briny Flapjacks, a variety from Washington, andchecked out everything on offer, from the spot prawns, sea urchin,sand dabs and petrale sole in the market case to the grilled abaloneserved with local seaweed salad.

The new deck and market space are welcome expansions to theformerly crowded patio space, allowing everyone in the know to hangout longer. Plans are in the works to team up with local wineries andbreweries to come pour onsite. But the current BYOB policy makesthis an appealing spot to spend a few hours slurping and sipping,either pre- or post-beach visit.

And Davenport Landing Beach is just yards away. We haul the day’sgoodies, along with a blanket and some sand toys, down to the widestretch of sand. Soon our daughter is busy sculpting sand cakes andmaking sand soup in her beach bucket, while my husband and I get towork shucking those Flapjacks. (Don’t forget to pack an oyster knife!)A cork pops and we are on our way to beach-picnic heaven.

DINING SKILLS REVIEW| DINE WITH CONFIDENCE

The main goal of practicing good manners at the dinner tableis to avoid grossing out your dining companions. All of theother nuances help to make things flow smootherdemonstrate respect for others, and to create a morepleasant experience for everyone.

Take the True or False Quiz:T F 1. If I need to dispose of a gristly piece ofmeat, I bring my fork up to my lips and with my tongue, pushthe unwanted morsel onto my fork then set the morsel on myplate.

T F 2. A “toast” is proposed in my honor; I smileand say, “Thank you” then take a sip along with everyoneelse.

T F 3. When excusing myself from the tableduring the meal, I should place my napkin on the left side ofmy dinner plate.

T F 4. When I am finished with my meal, it isproper to hand my plate to the server.

T F 5. A gentleman should always pull out thechair for women he knows well.

T F 6. The meal is on the company’s dime so Ican order whatever I want.

T F 7. Speaking assertively to the server willshow everyone that I demand good service.

T F 8. Checking my cell phone during abusiness meal shows my boss that I’m always on-the-job.

Answers:6. True. However, it is not my preference. I prefer the alternate

method which is discreetly taking your left hand using yourforefinger and thumb to dispose of the unwanted morsel. Placeit on your plate, wipe your fingers on your napkin and move on.

7. False. You smile, nod and say, “thank you.” Taking a sip whenyou are being honored is like applauding yourself.

8. False. The used napkin should never return to the table untilthe meal has ended and you are ready to leave the table.During the meal it can be placed on the seat of your chair orarmrest.

1. False. While it is a nice gesture, servers havea method of collecting plates and utensils. Anexception is if you are tucked in anunreachable corner.

2. True & False (Trick question). In a businesssetting, everyone pulls out their own chair. Insocial settings, tradition lends itself for agentleman to assist the woman next to him,whether he knows her or not. This is becomingtricky—not all women are accepting of this kindgesture.

3. False. True if you want a reputation of beinggluttonous and greedy. Company meals canreveal a lot about you. Instead of focusing onthe free meal, focus on your career by talkingwith management and other department staff.

4. False. How you speak to the server revealsyour presumption of superiority. Servers arethere to be of service to you, not to be yourservant.

5. False. It shows that you can’t handle a face-to-face conversation without being distracted.

Enjoying a meal with someone or a group requirescourtesy and consideration. How are you adding to theexperience? Do you finish eating before everyoneelse? Is the conversation all about you? Do you listen,even when the topic or person isn’t interesting to you?

Final tips: Take small bites. • Don’t lick your fingers(that’s what the napkin is for.) • Don’t drink too much(it has never helped anyone’s career.) • Avoid talkingabout politics, religion, or lecturing on the benefits ofeating meat/being a vegan.
