    May 9, 2025 – The wind was perhaps the strongest it’s ever been for the annual SLH Sun, Wind and Wine event in its 17 years. Combined with periods of heavy mist and dark clouds, interspersed with teases of sun, last Saturday’s weather illustrated emphatically why this region is so ideally suited for growing cool climate grapes. Moving the event up to the first weekend of May was purposeful, to avoid conflicts with graduations, weddings and other events that are more lucrative for caterers.

    May 9, 2025—Indigenous foods “chieftess” Christina Lonewolf Martinez claims some high-powered kitchen cred after apprenticing at Sierra Mar in Big Sur and helping open Stokes Adobe and Cella Restaurant & Bar in Monterey. But for her, the most compelling place she’s cooked, and continues to cook, doubles as her favorite: On native Esselen land down the South Coast, ideally accompanied by post-meal storytelling by Little Bear around the fire and children like her own toddler roaming about.

    May 6, 2025 – There’s no place like HOME, as in the famed Soquel restaurant, and soon, there will be no place like Home Away, Brad Briske and Linda Ritten’s forthcoming new outpost just down Main Street on the corner of Soquel Ave. Home Away will debut in the former VinoCruz space sometime in mid-June, with a mix of mostly to-go items, along with flavorful lunch staples like soup, salad and focaccia to enjoy during the day, and wine and charcuterie plates in the evening.

    May 2, 2025 – A schizophrenic sky kept us guessing what it would do next as we checked in for The Perfect Pair—the annual wine and food pairing event at Cabrillo College’s Sesnon House, run by Wines of the Santa Cruz Mountains in conjunction with the Culinary Arts Program at Cabrillo College. One minute it was sprinkling, the next, the sun peaked through and it got almost too warm. Then the breeze and gray clouds returned. Life on the coast demands layers: so does successful food and wine pairing.
