atmosphere to gather, socialize and truly enjoy the abundance of this<br />

aromas and texture with uncomplicated cooking methods. Menu items<br />
are unadulterated and unadorned emphasizing the essence of individual<br />

Head Chef James Anderson recently joined Hotel Serra. “I am thrilled<br />
to be joining the team at Hotel Serra and look forward to establishing<br />
Brasserie <strong>SLO</strong> on the Central Coast dining scene. I am also excited<br />
to celebrate the elemental cooking methods of our wood-fired grill and<br />
oven as a signature of the Brasserie <strong>SLO</strong> experience”, said James.<br />
Refining practices such as nose-to-tail butchery, root-to-fruit and wild<br />
coastal and forest foraging, Chef James crafts dishes succinctly of the<br />
highest quality, and preferably with a good glass of Central Coast wine!<br />

PROGRESS REPORT<br />
As Garden Street moves closer to being<br />
completed, Hotel Serra would like to thank all<br />
of our neighbors for their continued support and<br />
combined efforts towards truly making this the<br />
best street in Downtown <strong>SLO</strong>. Over the past few<br />
weeks, the team at Hotel Serra has been busy<br />
making improvements not only to Garden Street<br />
but to the surrounding walkways and crosswalks.<br />
Work on the two historic buildings that will become<br />
the hotel entrance and the restaurant, Brasserie<br />
<strong>SLO</strong>, continues, and the recent installation of<br />
the rooftop pool went off exceedingly smooth<br />
and garnered a very positive response. Most<br />
importantly, Garden Street is now fully open!<br />
