    One of my favorite things about publishing Edible Monterey Bay is all the opportunities it provides me to get out and explore our beautiful tri-county region. It’s easy for me to become a homebody living up in the Soquel Hills, but there are meetings to attend in Monterey, wine to pick up in Hollister, magazine deliveries to make in Carmel, events to go to in Big Sur, restaurants to try in Capitola and sometimes—if I’m lucky—a photo shoot up on the North Coast.

    January 30, 2025 – Carmel’s legendary Forge in the Forest restaurant is set to close permanently February 7 after the current owners were unable to renew their lease. Founded in 1972, the restaurant is the second major closure in Carmel so far this year. Italian fine-dining venue La Balena served its last meal this week and owners made plans to relocate to Florence.

    November 5, 2024 – Capitola fans of New Leaf Community Markets are getting an upgrade on Saturday when the store moves two blocks up 41st Avenue and opens in a former Lucky’s supermarket location. The 24,000 square foot building is almost twice as large as the previous location and allows expanded sections for organic produce, meat and seafood, prepared foods and natural wellness products.

    Sometimes I feel like the conductor of a small orchestra. It takes a community of very talented people to bring you each issue of Edible Monterey Bay magazine—writers, photographers, editors, graphic designers, printers and distribution drivers—everyone playing their part. While I often express appreciation for the wonderful advertising partners who keep us afloat, I’m constantly in awe of the creative people who work on this publication. Starting with contributing editor Mark C.
