S

tudies show that 40

percent of human’s

daily activities are

performed each day

in the same way. If

you’re anything like

me, you have a set wake-up time, take the

same route to work, and have a regular

repertoire of meals that you prepare (or

purchase) day in, day out. Though some

structure definitely has its benefits,

monotony can also lead to boredom or

feeling stuck and stagnant. Alternatively—and from my experience—trying something new,

whether it be big (traveling out of the country) or small (signing up for a new workout), elicits

excitement, stimulates creativity, and forces growth. And if whatever you’re trying for the first

time ends up being a total disaster, fret not—you’ll at least have a good story to tell and will

certainly make your own life story much more interesting.

Of all the months, January seems the most appropriate one to shake things up—it is a “new”

year, after all. Here at Style, we definitely welcomed the spirit of change, which you’ll find in

our new and (we think) improved design, content, and cover. Since the company’s inception

over a decade ago, we’ve had separate publications for each of

our markets—El Dorado County; Folsom, El Dorado Hills; and

“Stop being

Placer County—and finally decided to merge into one bigger,

afraid of and better, magazine. As we continue to make improvements,

I’d love to hear your comments, concerns, opinions, and ideas;

what could this magazine is near and dear to me, so I promise to take them

to heart.

go wrong

Coincidentally, this month’s feature is all about new things

and think of to see, eat, drink, and do this year—easy ways to add some spice

to your life without traveling far. From recently opened (and

what could go soon-to-open) restaurants, retail stores, gyms, museums, and

even an aquarium, there’s a whole bevy of new businesses on

right.”

the block just waiting to be discovered.

—Unknown Still seeking inspiration on ways to break out of your

routine rut? How about introducing one of the 10 super-good

superfoods that come recommended from area health pros (page 22), booking a European

river cruise that takes you through four countries in 12 days (page 94), adding a fresh paint of

color to your abode in one of the year’s hottest hues (page 88), or getting crafty in the kitchen

with a new recipe (page 108)?

However you decide to step out of your comfort zone in 2019, do it with vim and vigor, but

most importantly: Just do it. Happy New Year!

GET TO KNOW

Marlon Morgan, MA, LPCC

Roseville resident Marlon Morgan knows a thing or

two about the challenges facing kids in today’s

public school system. When he was just nine years

old, his father tragically passed away, leaving his

mother to raise him. They often had to move due

to her career as a nurse, and Morgan still remembers

how difficult it was to concentrate on school during such

tumultuous times. He later found solace in high school sports,

mainly due to the steady guidance of Greg Benzel, his varsity

coach. “I saw how important it was for kids to have a positive

role model in their lives,” Morgan

“I saw how

important it was

for kids to have

a positive role

model in their

lives.”

reflects.

Once becoming a licensed

school counselor, Morgan was

dismayed to discover a lack

of sufficient mental health

resources available to kids.

From there, Wellness Together

(wellnesstogether.org) was born,

a nonprofit that provides public

school districts all over California

with therapists and other mental

health services. From January 22-23, the organization is hosting

the third annual California Student Mental Wellness Conference

at the Sacramento Convention Center, with former U.S. Secretary of

Education John B. King serving as keynote speaker.

Morgan has also helped to develop student mental health and wellness policy

recommendations for the California State Superintendent of Public Instruction

and the California Legislature. For his efforts, he’s received special recognition

from U.S. Congress, the California State Senate, and the California State

Assembly. “What happens outside the classroom affects what goes on inside,” he

attests, adding, “We have a responsibility to make sure students feel emotionally

safe and supported.” —Amber Foster

Foods

to Eat

This Year

By Tara Mendanha

Forget fashion trends—

food trends are where it’s

at. We asked the experts,

and here’s what they

suggest you should be

eating to feel and be your

best this year. Cheers to a

healthy and happy 2019!

Pictured: Northstar 1952

Refrigerator, available at Sierra

Hearth & Home in Jackson,

sierrahearthandhome.net

Fibrous foods never go out of

style! Most of us don’t eat enough

fiber, and it’s incredibly important

for our gut (makes the intestines

function better, cleans the colon,

and reduces constipation),

microbiome (microorganisms that

protect against germs and break

down food to release energy),

cardiovascular, and immune

health. So pack in those veggies,

fruits, legumes, and whole grains

whenever and wherever you can.

Adaptogenic herbs are classified

as adaptogens, meaning they can

“adapt” their function based on our

body’s specific needs. When we

adapt to our environment, we’re

able to better handle whatever

life throws at us. Experience an

increase in energy and clarity from

adaptogenic mushrooms like chaga

and reishi or try mushroom coffees

that are a tasty and beneficial

alternative to the average cup of

joe.

2019 should also be the year you

discover the benefits of bittertasting

foods. Greens like

arugula, mustard, collard, endive,

and spinach all add great flavors to

soups, salads, and sandwiches. The

bitter elements of foods have health

benefits, too—they’re stimulating to

the appetite and strengthening to

your digestion.

Omega-3 fatty acids are important

for cardiovascular, neurological,

and dermatological health, and

a standard American diet is

deficient in them. It’s best to obtain

healthy fats through your diet via

high omega-3, low mercury

seafood. The Environmental

Working Group’s best choices

for safe and healthy seafood are

salmon, sardines, mussels, rainbow

trout, and Atlantic mackerel.

In addition to serving as another

source of omega-3 fatty acids,

tree nuts (almonds, pecans,

cashews, hazelnuts, walnuts, and

pistachios) are also a great source

of both monounsaturated and

polyunsaturated fats, plant sterols,

and fiber—all of which can help

improve cholesterol levels. They

also contain protein, vitamins, and

minerals and have been shown to

aid in maintaining a healthy weight.

Originating in Eastern Europe and

Southwest Asia, kefir, a fermented

drink made by adding kefir grains

to milk, is becoming increasingly

popular in the states—due to its

rich probiotic content. It contains up

to 61 different strains of bacteria,

which is more than most yogurt. It

also has antibacterial properties,

improves bone health, and improves

allergy symptoms…so drink up!

Here’s a mouthwatering one:

spices. Get out of your comfort

zone and add some spice to your

life (and meals) with wonders

such as ginger, turmeric,

coriander, and cumin to

replace the need for all that

sugar and sodium in most dishes.

These spices and aromatics also

have a satiety effect that will leave

you feeling full faster.

Dark, leafy greens (spinach,

watercress, beet greens, etc.)

provide antioxidant properties that

activate immune cells and promote

cardiovascular health. Green

cruciferous vegetables (Brussels

sprouts, kale, cabbage, bok choy,

and collard greens) protect against

DNA damage, destroy cancerous

cells, and may even prevent cells

from becoming cancerous. Tip:

Broccoli sprouts are packed with

sulforaphane—thought to boost the

body’s immune system and protect

against cancer.

Sourdough bread can be a good

grain choice since it’s made with a

probiotic. The end product—after

the bread is made—produces

lactic acid, which helps make the

nutrients we consume be more

digestible and absorbable. It’s also

better tolerated by people who are

sensitive to gluten (hooray!).

Beans are the bee’s knees. A

source of protein and fiber, they’re

also low in fat and sodium, have no

cholesterol, and can decrease the

risk of diabetes. Fun fact: Beans are

the only food group found in all five

of the Blue Zones, i.e. areas in the

world where people reach age 100

at 10 times the average rate in the

world. What’s more, they’re equally

good for the environment, since

they use a fraction of the planet’s

resources when compared to beef.

Q: What are the latest trends in

eyeglasses?

A: Individual expression! When

opticians meet with you, they should

evaluate your prescription and learn

about the interesting facets of your

personality and character, ultimately

guiding you to find a pair with the best

overall wardrobe and style fit. Your daily

activities, lifestyle, and level of passion

for imposing your own personal style

statement are all important elements to

consider when finding a perfect pair of

eyeglasses. Remember: Life’s too short to

wear boring glasses. Be fabulous!

Q: What are the most important

questions to ask before buying a

home?

A: The home buying/selling process can

be stressful at times. To keep things as

smooth as possible, here are a couple

key questions to keep in mind when

purchasing a home:

• How are the schools in the area?

• What is the average cost of utilities?

• How old is the HVAC and roof?

• Have any inspections been

completed?

• Have there been any major repairs or

upgrades?

• Why are they moving?

• What other home sales in the area

support the price?

CAUSE & EFFECT

Count

on Kids

Committed to Community Service

by LINDA HOLDERNESS | photos by DANTE FONTANA

How do we take children from "me" to "we"? The answer is the heart of Count on Kids, a

new El Dorado Hills-based nonprofit whose mission is to inspire young people to become socially

conscious adults through community service. "We provide kids with opportunities to go out and

make a difference," says founder Kelli Plevyak. "When children do things to help the community,

they feel empowered to make a difference and gain more confidence in themselves." Unlike most

youth service groups, Count on Kids encourages participation from infants and toddlers, as well

as adolescents through early college age. "Kids are capable at a very young age," Plevyak says. If

they can’t yet take part, she says, they benefit from having the involvement modeled.

Since its founding last June, Count on Kids has put together care kits for Mustard Seed School

for homeless children, helped clean up Brown’s Ravine for Folsom’s Community Service Day,

cleaned play structures at a local park, assembled backpacks with essentials and made holiday

cards for children housed in a shelter, supplemented a local school’s curriculum, and raised

money for various charities. This year, the organization has lined up an even more ambitious

roster:

SENIORS AND SMALLS WORKSHOPS Each month, children under 13 will work with seniors in

a day care center to complete a charitable project, such as decorating cat carriers for the SPCA.

Seniors enjoy the little ones, and the kids learn to view older people as engaging and fun.

SUPERHEROES CLEAN UP THE TOWN Once a month, the kids will dress in costume, or capes

the organization provides, and clean local parks and open spaces.

COMMUNITY IMPROVEMENT PROJECTS The organization will perform varied acts of service

that benefit the community.

IN-SCHOOL COMMUNITY SERVICE CURRICULUM Count on Kids will supplement classwork

with studies of nonprofits that relate to the curriculum’s theme. At the end of each lesson, they’ll

create a project to benefit one of the nonprofits. Last year, the kids paired a study of California

farm animals with information about an animal sanctuary in Marin County. An outreach to needy

schools in Africa also developed under this program.

KINDNESS CAMPS These week-long camps will engage youth using different daily themes,

such as random acts of kindness, caring for the environment, and bonding with elders. Upcoming


camps are planned for summer and winter breaks.

LEADERS IN TRAINING For middle school ages and

up, Count on Kids’ board members and community

leaders will mentor young people to plan and execute

their own community project. The steps will include

marketing, recruiting volunteers, managing the

project, and raising and budgeting money. "At the

end," Plevyak says, "it will be 100 percent their success,

which, to me, is huge."

Count on Kids is not a membership organization—

there are no dues, anyone can participate, and board

members are all volunteers. Additionally, all services

and programs (except for Kindness Camps) are free.

BOGARD HEALTH - WELL AGING MED

ANTI-AGING MEDICINE PRACTICE

508 Gibson Dr., Ste 290 // Roseville

916-781-4300

bogardhealth.com

Dr. Bogard has a long history in the health

field. From an RN to a nurse anesthetist

to an anesthesiologist, she spent almost

40 years in the operating room. She was

exposed to critical care, trauma, obstetrics, lots of on

call hours and sleepless nights. As she entered her 50's

she found her own health starting to decline and sought

out a healthy aging physician. After experiencing the

benefits she sought out the fellowship of regenerative

and healthy aging through the American Academy of

Anti-Aging Medicine.

She opened an office in 2014 and continues to grow

and expand her knowledge into this evolving field of

medicine. Rather than prescribing medications and

bandaging diseases she looks for the "root causes" and

integrates each system in the body together. She also

looks at environmental, genetic and lifestyle factors

which result in "dis-ease". Her continued and expanding

practice utilizes bioidentical hormone replacement,

thyroid and adrenal optimization, GI healing, testing for

heavy metals and IV nutrition and chelation, advanced

lipid testing, and advanced blood sugar testing.

Spotlight on

Laura

Harling

by HEATHER L. BECKER

Photo by Dante Fontana.



HLB: You've had quite the professional

background. How did you discover your

artistic calling?

LH: I started out making mud sculptures as

a child and have sculpted in many mediums

since. After getting a degree in fine art and a

teaching credential from Sacramento State, I

honed my skills using a variety of techniques

and materials. My various jobs—blackjack

dealer, high-rise window cleaner, janitor, clerk,

dispatcher, and teacher for the California

Department of Corrections and Rehabilitation—

allowed me to meet many different kinds of

people and offered inspiration for my art.

High Speed Jerry

HLB: What is it about sculpting that captures

your interest most?

LH: I love working with my hands, the 3D

nature of the medium, and how you can walk

around a sculpture.

Award-winning sculptor Laura Harling specializes in works

of political and social satire. Using a variety of materials—

toothpicks, broom straw, coat hangers, and even human

hair—she creates prominent figures of government officials, current and

past presidents, and famous icons like Elvis, Princess Diana, and Oprah

Winfrey. The artist gains inspiration for her intricate sculptures from a

lifelong interest in news and politics, as well as a varied work history.

Growing up in nearby Woodland, Harling has called El Dorado Hills home

for the past 42 years and loves the area’s natural beauty and thriving art

culture. Her words of wisdom for aspiring artists? “Just do it, keep doing

it, and have fun.”

(above left) The Goddess Martha

(above right) The Huge Surprise

(right) Gavin Takes a Selfie

HLB: What political and social change

or conversation do you hope your work

contributes to?

LH: My parents were involved in politics and

got me interested. As a state janitor, I cleaned

Governor Jerry Brown’s apartment. Observing

his ascetic lifestyle inspired me to create my

first political sculpture. I like to hope that my

sculptures make people stop and think about

our society and the way we treat each other and

the environment.

HLB: In your opinion, why is art so valuable

and necessary, especially in today’s world?

LH: Americans today seem to have very rigidly

defined mindsets. I believe art can help people

be more open-minded and make them feel

better. When people feel better, they act better.

HLB: How do you overcome artist’s block?

LH: I watch the news, visit art galleries and

museums, and travel.

HLB: What is one of your favorite pieces and

why?

LH: I’ve refined my techniques over the years

and seem to like the most recent one the

best—Gavin Takes a Selfie. I’m also fond of my

sculptures of Jerry Brown. Overall, I like the

pieces that make me smile.

HLB: What’s in store for the future?

LH: I want to continue sculpting for as long as I

can and have a show for all of my 50-plus pieces.

7 Mental Health Myths

by KOURTNEY JASON

One in five Americans experience a diagnosable mental health

problem every year, according to the National Alliance on Mental

Illness (NAMI). But, according to Dr. Stephanie Parmely, a psychologist

at Mercy Medical Group in Folsom, “You can’t always tell if someone has a mental

illness just by looking at them. In fact, it’s surprising to know how many people

[struggle with it].” And though it’s more common than you think, mental illness

is still stigmatized in today’s culture. With the help of local

experts, we’ve cleared up some of the most common

misconceptions.

MYTH 1 People with a mental illness are

typically violent.

The truth is that people with a mental illness are more

likely to be victims of violence than to perpetrate

violence, says Othman Alami, MD, a psychiatrist at

Kaiser Permanente in Roseville. “Studies have shown

that people with severe mental illnesses are more than

10 times at risk of being victims of violent crimes than

the general population,” he says. Only three to five

percent of violent acts can be attributed to people with

a serious mental illness. The media perpetrates this

misconception, because psychiatric patients are often

portrayed as incompetent, dangerous, and impulsive.

MYTH 2 Those with mental illness are

unable to work.

Some patients with psychiatric

disabilities may require some

accommodations but only a small

minority are completely unable

to work. In fact, most individuals

with psychiatric conditions can

and do work effectively, Dr. Alami

says. “Working can be therapeutic in

that it provides the person with the

opportunity to feel like they’re an

active member of society by making

a difference in the lives of others and

generating an income,” he says.

MYTH 3 Addiction is not a real illness.

Addiction is as much of an

illness as type 2 diabetes or asthma, Dr. Parmely says.

“These diseases share a genetic component and an

environmental/lifestyle component,” she says. “The

earlier a person starts using a substance, the more likely

they are to have an addiction.”

MYTH 4 Depression is just feeling sad,

and it will pass on its own.

Sadness is one of the symptoms of depression, but

they’re not the same thing, says Amy Barnhorst, MD, vice

chair of community mental health in the Department

of Psychiatry and Behavioral Sciences at UC Davis, and

medical director of the Sacramento County Mental

Health Treatment. “Sadness is a normal human emotion

and usually subsides with time,” she says. “Depression

includes having a sad mood for weeks, along with

changes in sleep and appetite, loss of ability to feel

pleasure, feelings of hopelessness and worthlessness,

and sometimes thoughts of suicide.” Depression can

start out as sadness in response to a loss or a difficult

time, but it can affect a person’s ability to function

in their everyday life. “If you start to feel like you can

barely get out of bed for days at a time, you’re unable to

get your work done, nothing seems enjoyable, or you don’t want to live

anymore, these are signs of something more serious than sadness,” she

says.

MYTH 5 You can never recover from mental illness.

Mental illness can improve with treatment and

lifestyle changes, Dr. Parmely says, though there are

more severe mental illnesses that require long-term

treatment—like medication or therapy—forever.

With that said, a lot of mental health problems can

be managed to the point where they’re not a burden

in day-to-day life. “Sometimes this means managing

with short-term medication and other times through

short-term therapy that teaches coping skills and

awareness of pitfalls to prevent backsliding,” she

shares. “Patients are then equipped with the skills

to self-manage their condition. Every patient is

different, so it’s really about building a plan with

your psychologist that’s right for you.”

MYTH 6 Treatment will not help.

NAMI reports that

depression is the

leading cause for

disability claims

in the U.S., and 96

percent of people

who commit

suicide have

shown signs of an

underlying mental

health issue or

illness. “Not getting

treatment is what does not work,” says Kayle Torres,

MA, LMFT, in Roseville. “Seeing a therapist when

noticing the first signs of a mental illness can prevent

the longer-term effects and consequences of not

getting treatment.”

MYTH 7 If you feel better, you’re

cured.

The goal for anyone struggling with mental illness or

symptoms is to identify what is causing, triggering,

or contributing to their symptoms, says Ashlee

Janzen, MS, LMFT, in Roseville. The second step is to

learn ways to cope and manage symptoms that are

impairing a person’s function. Many times during the

treatment process, someone may notice a decrease

in symptoms and feel good. However, if they haven’t

gotten to the root, those symptoms are likely to

return—sometimes with more intensity. “The word

‘cure’ is a very strong word to use around mental

illness,” she says. “Many people must continue

managing their mental illness with learned coping

skills. This doesn’t ‘cure’ them, but it can minimize

the impact the symptoms have on someone’s life.”

Rubble

The Rebirth of

Prairie City

by JERRIE BEARD


L

ong before Highway 50 ran through Rancho Cordova and Folsom,

long before Intel, Kaiser, and the Folsom Premium Outlets, there was

a bustling gold rush town by the name of Prairie City. Its streets were

lined with houses, hotels, stores, saloons, and gambling halls. But, by the

mid 1880s, all was gone except a heap of stones about three feet high

that was part of the foundation of the Prairie City Hotel. At the turn of the century, even

that reminder had crumbled. Today the town is memorialized by California Historical

Landmark #464, located near Folsom High School at the intersection of Prairie City

Road and Highway 50.

According to an account in the May 26, 1922, Sacramento Union, the town of Prairie

City once boasted a population of 10,000 and was a “mecca for every type of humanity

and the scene of many a killing.” It’s more likely there were no more than a couple

thousand souls living there at any one time.

The town was located a few miles south of Folsom along the road to Michigan Bar

and served as a central point for mining operations in the area. Miners scrambling up

ravines and gulches in search of gold provisioned expeditions there. As the placer gold

played out, miners moved on and the town eventually vanished.

Bucket-line dredging arrived in Folsom in 1898 bringing a resurgence of mining

activity to the area. Massive dredging platforms, many operated by the Natomas

Company, dredged from the town of Folsom along the south side of the

American River to Fair Oaks, through the town of Natomas to Nimbus and west

to present day Mather Air Force Base. The dredged area was about 10 miles long

and up to seven miles wide. The total output in gold when operations ceased in

1962 was estimated at $125 million. Piles of cobble can still be seen around Lake

Natoma and along Highway 50.

Deemed unsuitable for building, the tailing strewn area was purchased by

Aerojet General Corporation in the early 1960s to test M-1 rocket engines—

which were initially supposed to help astronauts get to the moon—for the U.S.

Federal Government. Funding for that project dried up, but Aerojet continued

to test and burn solid and liquid rocket fuels and other chemicals on the

property. Hazardous waste from these operations can still be found in the soil

and groundwater of Area 40, a 75-acre zone east of Prairie City Road, south of

Highway 50 and north of White Rock Road. Removal of these toxic chemicals,

funded by Aerojet, is scheduled for completion in 2022.

In 1972, Aerojet leased 435 acres to Roy and Mary

McGill, and a motorcycle riding and competition facility,

known as McGill’s Cycle Park, soon sprang up. The McGills

sold the facility to Sacramento County in 1975, and another

401 acres was added to the park in 1976. The county

managed the park until 1989 when it was turned over to

the Off Highway Vehicle Division and became an official

California State Park in 1990.

Today, Prairie City State Vehicular Recreation Area—

sited 20 miles east of Downtown Sacramento and three

miles south of Highway 50—has brought life back to the

area once frequented by the gold seekers. Thousands of

adventure seekers continue to embody the original spirit

of the pioneers and miners seeking fortune. The park

features trails and tracks for go-carts, motocross, ATVs, and 4x4s.

The park’s Environmental Training Center provides education on safe

and environmentally responsible off-highway practices. Prairie City SVRA

also hosts over 100 special events each year, including Hangtown, which is

watched by people from all over the world. The Department of Parks and

Recreation is working to protect and preserve many natural resources in

the park, as well as keep opportunities available for off-highway use.

Hot Hues for 2019

While ringing in the New Year,

all of our favorite paint

their color of the year or #COTY. The

the theme remains rooted in a feeling of

"getting away from it all" with a shiny twist.

Cavern Clay

Sherwin-Williams touts Cavern

Clay as their 2019 shade, while

Dunn-Edwards features Spice

subtle with Metropolitan, while

Behr and Pittsburg Paints jump

to the other end of the spectrum

with Blueprint and Night Watch

respectively.

All the while, Pantone (the authority of a unified

color language that reinforces the things we buy, wear,

and make) is taking a cue from consumer electronics

and fashion to add a whole new slew of colors called

Metallic Shimmers. Consisting of 200 tints—ranging

from traditional silvers and golds to bolder shades

like purple sequin and blue diode—Metallic Shimmers

is meant as a reference point for anyone developing

products or adding accents to their home.

Fast Company says, "Whether it's a rose gold iPhone

Spice of Life

in your hand, a pair of cherry-red Beats on your ears,

or something like the matte-black Echo in your home, Pantone has watched

the metallic finishes of our gadgets impact the design world at large." Pantone

believes its metallic swatches can be an anchor in the design process and

universally inspire home design and the products inside of it.

The colors named by paint companies can surely serve as a pillar or color

splash to the home, while metallics can accent and add interest.

Benjamin Moore's Metropolitan choice is in response to those who want

a break from the noise and chaos of the world. The result is a light shifting,

contemplative gray that allows one to rest and reset.

Earthy, warm tones like Sherwin-Williams' Cavern

Clay and Dunn-Edwards' Spice of Life also echo the

cocooning effect we’re all seeking. At first blush, the

colors seem striking, but once painted on the walls,

they create a warm, calming effect.

With tech-saturated homeowners struggling to

remain grounded, organics come to mind, inspiring

Behr's and Pittsburg Paints' selections of Blueprint

and Night Watch. A serene sea blue and a midnight

green hue reflect the meditative perks of immersing

oneself in nature.

If you’re looking for some peace and quiet in your

abode with a little shimmer to keep it interesting,

2019 is going to be the year for you! How will you

Think iconic rivers, luminous ports, culturally and historically significant cities, legendary

Rieslings, and mouthwatering cuisine. Now, connect the dots and imagine seeing all the above

seeing them in a completely new way).

seafaring experience. Their European ships have

fewer than 200 passengers, making for an intimate,

luxurious, all-inclusive journey that begins the

moment you step on board.

This particular trip, the 12-day “Cities of Light”

voyage, starts in Prague—one of Eastern Europe’s

great cities—a young, clean, vibrant metropolis with

architecture to spin your head, restaurants that satisfy

every foodie, and unforgettable sights and history. A

couple days exploring the city while staying at a firstclass

hotel is the perfect prescription to overcome a

little jet lag.

After traveling to the Bavarian city of Nuremberg

and touring the ruins of Zeppelin Field, the Nazi

parade grounds of the 1930s, and the Palace of Justice,

the venerable vestige of the Nuremberg Trials—you’ll

take a short bus ride to Bamberg, Germany, where you

can enjoy a short walking tour, rich in history. And,

yes, a sampling of their rauchbier (smoked beer) that

the city is known for.

Next, it’s time to board your boat. Traveling rivers is

much like, well, skimming glass. In fact, it’s so smooth

a ride that you’ll wonder if you’re moving half the time.

Immediately upon entering the ship, you’ll feel

like a queen. Luxury appointments at every turn and

a surprising, welcome feel of autonomy. After checking

into your stateroom, enjoy a glass of wine on the top

deck before your first culinary experience on board.

While typical cruise ship cuisine might best be

compared to dining at a quality chain restaurant,

midday meals on Viking are more akin to a finer country club (sans the clacking of golf

shoes). What’s more, service is impeccable and plentiful, but not overbearing. Dinner is

intimate and elegant, and both lunch and dinner offer specially selected wines and beers

to pair with your meal. The best part? The aforementioned adult beverages are included in

the cruise’s cost. So, go ahead, enjoy a glass of wine with lunch—you’re on vacation!

Like all of Europe, history abounds, and the tours and excursions offered on Viking

are plentiful, fun, leisurely, and totally at your discretion. If you’d rather relax onboard

one day? Go right ahead. With the ship almost empty for hours, it may be just the R&R

that the doctor ordered.

Each day, Viking Daily is available in the lobby—a publication detailing the day’s weather,

excursions, things to see and do in the towns you’ll be visiting, and a brief history on them.

Once docked, Viking’s local tour guides are knowledgeable and entertaining, though certain

days might call for independent exploration at your own pace.

The cruise portion ends after being on board for six nights and visiting the

aforementioned cities plus Würzburg, Heidelberg, Mainz, Cochem, Bernkastel, and

Trier (all in Germany). Unlike departures from big cruise ships—where the crew works

to maintain order and safety—this departure has the air of friends and family saying

“goodbye for now.”

After disembarking, travel to Luxembourg where, at the Luxembourg American Cemetery,

you can pay homage to the thousands of soldiers who lost their lives during the World War II

Battle of the Bulge. A few hours in a luxury motor coach finds you in Paris: the City of Light.

Being the last leg of the trip with Viking,

they’re there to make the transition from

ship to hotel as seamless and relaxing as

possible.

Wind down by taking in the sights of

this beautiful city. Strolling the streets,

enjoying a glass of wine at a street-side

café, and discovering the most delicious

croque monsieur on the planet (go to

Le Petit Cler—you will not regret it!) is

simply divine.

As the final morning of your trip

arrives, the Viking ground crew—stationed

at your hotel—ensure another smooth

departure; facilitating each passenger’s

travel needs as they head home.

Think beyond the beach this year. A

Viking River Cruise is an adventure that’ll

make 2019 your best, most adventurous,

year yet.

New Glory Eatery & Taproom // If you’ve never eaten food that was so good you said words improper to say in

public, New Glory Eatery & Taproom can help. Not that I want you to say anything offensive, but when I took a bite of their Croque

Monsieur, a few questionable words came out of my otherwise pure mouth. Picture a warm sandwich with béchamel (a French

sauce that’ll change your life), fire-smoked ham, Gruyère, and chives on country white bread. C’est délicieux! Throw in Parmesan

Truffle Fries and a pint of Mild Statesman Ale and you have la perfection! If you’re a fan of chicken strips, you’ve never had

any like the ones they serve here. Beer-brined in their Ubahdank IPA, they’re trés moist and flavorful. Julien, the owner—who

happens to be from France (hence my attempt at writing in French)—and his staff pride themselves on cleverly naming their beers,

whose colorful cans are a talking point too. Mouth Party (Northeastern DIPA), Hopochondriac (West Coast DIPA), Gummy Worms

(chewy pale ale), and Wakey Wakey (oatmeal coffee porter) were just a few of the 20-plus rotating taps available on my visit. As far

as food, there’s something for everyone at this family-friendly taproom. And here’s a little secret that our server, Ben, let us in on. If

you order the Papas and Chorizo pizza, add an egg, and it will magically turn into breakfast. À votre santé and bon appétit! (Cheers

and enjoy your meal.) 5540 Douglas Boulevard, Suite 140 & 150, Granite Bay, 916-872-1721, newglorybeer.com/eatery — Julie Ryan

THE HOT LIST

Healthy

in a Hurry

We define “healthy in a hurry” as a certain meal or dish

that’s good for you and quick to get. Toss in the possibility

of said meal being actually yummy and voila(!)— we end

up with the perfect-in-every-way options below.

“The Salad Bar at Whole

Foods is literally what you

make it. The combinations

are endless, and you

can’t go wrong. If you do,

then it’s your own fault!

With greens galore, vast

veggies (fresh or roasted),

power-packed proteins,

and dressing options for

all, you can’t miss this

guilt-free option. The best

part? There’s no waiting for

someone else to prepare

it, which means it goes

straight from the box to

your belly. Here’s a pro tip:

Skip the heavy hard-boiled

eggs and beans and get

your dressing on the side

DINING SPOTLIGHT

For those who have never experienced

dining in a Brazilian steakhouse or

churrascaria—the time has come. You’ve

probably eaten all-you-can-eat sushi or had a

seafood or breakfast buffet—so why not AYCE

beef, chicken, and pork?

It’s not necessary to be familiar with

terms like churrascaria and rodízio, but

after a visit to Brisas Do Sul in Folsom’s

Palladio, you might want to be. If you visit

when they’re not too busy, you may be

fortunate enough to have General Manager

Anna give you a history of not only their

big, new, and beautiful restaurant, but also

the history of the Brazillian steakhouse

revolution here in America.

“WITH YOUR CARD IN

POSITION, YOUR GAUCHO

WILL ENTICE YOU WITH

PORTIONS OF BRAZILLIAN

LINGUISA SAUSAGE, BACON-

WRAPPED CHICKEN, GARLIC

STEAK, PARMESAN PORK, TOP

SIRLOIN, ROASTED LEG OF

CHICKEN, AND MORE.”

Brisas Do Sul

A Meat-Eater’s Mecca

BY LORN RANDALL // PHOTOS BY MENKA BELGAL

Anna guided me through the protocols

of rodízio-style dining including their famed

Farmer’s Table. There’s no misnomer here—

the area is filled with fruits, vegetables, salads,

cheeses, and charcuterie. If you’re a foodie

(or a vegetarian), there’s a seemingly endless

bevy of tantalizing treats—from Brazilian

classics like chickpea salad, hearts of palm,

malagueta peppers, roasted vegetables,

feijoada (black bean stew), and farofa (a

toasted cassava mixture), to an amazing array

of salads and sides, like salami, manchego,

and smoked salmon with capers, red onions,

and dill sauce. Assorted sliced fruit, including

papaya and pineapple, are strategically

added because of their digestion-enhancing

properties. And if that’s not enough, there are

warming stations with rice, collard greens,

and fricassee (braised chicken simmered in

a rich, hearty sauce). In short, the Farmer’s

Table could readily fulfill the lunch or dinner


desires of most folks without venturing forth onto the

meaty main event.

Which brings me to Brisa’s pride and joy: roasted meat

on a skewer. On my lunch-hour visit, there were seven

different preparations parading past me (during dinner,

the offerings increase to 15) by a “gaucho.” A carnivore’s

carnival of flame-roasted proteins stacked on a sword, and all you have

to do is make sure your personal card is turned green side up. With your

card in position, your gaucho will entice you with portions of Brazillian

linguisa sausage, bacon-wrapped chicken, garlic steak, parmesan pork,

top sirloin, roasted leg of chicken, and more. Except the linguisa, the

meats are simply seasoned with just sea salt and pepper, allowing each

one’s natural flavor and quality to shine. The magic here is in the open

fire, roasting process—indoor barbecue taken to the next level.

Each table also comes with gluten-free cheese bread, mashed

potatoes and chimichurri sauce to complement your meat, and fried

plantains as a palate cleanser.

Founder Emanuel Peres, co-founder Luciano Lima, and of course,

GM Anna have created a convivial, authentic dining experience that

begs to be shared with loved ones—so, by all means, come and enjoy.

1 whole organic chicken, at least 3 lbs. or more

2 large yellow onions, peeled and left whole

10 fresh or dried bay leaves

2 cups carrots, cubed

2 cups celery, cubed

Fresh Italian flatleaf parsley, finely chopped, to garnish

Scallions, thinly sliced, to garnish

Salt & pepper, to taste

Rinse your chicken and place in a large pot. Cover with enough

water so it’s one inch above the meat. Add onions, peppercorns, and

bay leaf. Bring to a boil and lower heat to simmer for at least 2 hours,

covered.

Remove chicken. Once cool enough to handle, remove all bones and

skin (can be used later to make another small batch or stock) and

keep meat separate from broth until ready to serve.

Pour liquid through a sieve and put back into the pot. Discard cooked

onion, bay leaves, and peppercorns. Place carrots and celery in liquid

and simmer for 20 minutes, just until vegetables are cooked.

Place selected pieces of chicken in a bowl, and ladle broth with

vegetables over meat. Sprinkle fresh parsley and scallions on top and

add salt and pepper to taste.

Serve with whatever starch (rice, pasta, millet, etc.) you desire.

8 oz. cooked basmati rice in saffron

6 tbsp. cilantro leaves, coarsely chopped, to garnish

In a heavy soup pan, heat extra virgin oil over medium heat. Add

diced tomatoes, celery, carrots, green and red bell peppers, and

onions. Stir for about 10 minutes until onions and celery are tender

and soft. Sprinkle in Mediterranean spice blend; keep stirring for 1-2

minutes.

Add chicken broth or vegetable broth and, or water. One by one, add

lentils, garlic, tomatoes (both fresh and paste), and cabbage. Turn heat

down to medium and let simmer for about 30-35 minutes.

After bringing the liquid to a boil, add spinach and saffron basmati

rice (cooked in separate rice cooker) for 5 minutes. Garnish with

chopped cilantro.

*Mix all of the spices together before adding to the soup (they mix
