Style Magazine Roseville Granite Bay Rocklin: October 2019
Fifteen years ago, we produced our first Readers’ Choice Awards issue, which was the community’s opportunity to vote on who they believe is the best. It is the single most read and referenced issue we produce each year and we owe a very special group of people special thanks for making this issue happen–you, our readers! Thousands of readers cast more than 120,000 votes for local businesses and organizations this year. It’s hard to believe how much this contest has grown and how much it means to the winners and to the readers who source this issue (both in print and online) when making all types of buying decisions every day. We are proud to say that our Readers’ Choice Awards is the largest awards contest of its type in the Sacramento region. What’s most important to our readers is knowing their votes count, we don’t choose winners because they are advertisers. We don’t choose the winners at all. This is truly a contest voted on by the readers alone. We want to take this opportunity to let you know how much we appreciate your readership and support of STYLE. And for all the winners who chose to say “thank you” for voting for them by placing an ad in our special section, well, we very much thank you, too! Congrats to each and every one of you! — All the Best, Terry Carroll & Wendy Sipple Publishers

| publisher’s letter |
It was 16 Years ago this month that we were
preparing the launch of what is now STYLE
Magazine. We cannot believe how fast the time
has gone!
Since that first issue, we have produced
more than 12 million publications (always using
environmentally friendly
paper and inks!), thousands
of stories, profiles of local
businesses, artists, nonprofits,
people making a
difference, restaurants
and–well, the list goes on
and on. And we are proud
of all of it, just as we are
proud of more than $3
million that we’ve given
back to the communities
we serve in a host of ways.
We are most proud of
the content we produce–
REAL editorial, not glowing
stories of advertisers, but
editorial written by our talented editorial staff and
freelance writers.
Fifteen years ago, we produced our first Readers’
Choice Awards issue, which was the community’s
opportunity to vote on who they believe is the best. It is the
single most read and referenced issue we produce each
year and we owe a very special group of people special
thanks for making this issue happen–you, our readers!
Thousands of readers cast more than 120,000 votes
for local businesses and organizations this year. It’s hard
to believe how much this contest has grown and how
much it means to the winners and to the readers who
source this issue (both in print and online) when making
all types of buying decisions every day. We are proud to
say that our Readers’ Choice Awards is the largest awards
contest of its type in the Sacramento region. What’s most
important to our readers is knowing their votes count,
we don’t choose winners because they are advertisers.
We don’t choose the winners at all. This is truly a contest
voted on by the readers alone.
We want to take this opportunity to let you know how
much we appreciate your readership and support of
STYLE. And for all the winners who chose to say “thank
you” for voting for them by placing an ad in our special
section, well, we very much thank you, too! Congrats to
each and every one of you!

YOUR
BIGGEST
PET
PEEVE?
Drivers not using their right or left
turn signals. —Reg Holliday
I cannot stand when people
are not on time when we have
plans to meet. Everyone’s time
is so valuable and it should be
respected. I always try to be a bit
early too. —Kourtney Jason
Bad drivers—especially those who
don’t use their turn signal and those
who think a stop sign is a mere
suggestion. —Tara Mendanha
When people watch Netflix videos
in windowed mode. Full screen it or
minimize it; don’t leave me hanging
in digital limbo! —Ray Burgess
Bad grammar and spelling. With spell
check and The Google Machine,
there's no excuse for incorrect
grammar and spelling! I used to
always correct my kids’ emails to
me, which is probably the reason
they no longer email me.

Our September issue’s “Slice Advice” feature failed to
mention the Mountain Mike’s located at 25075 Blue
Ravine Road, Suite 150 in Folsom (in the Parkway Shopping
Center). Stop by and try their delicious garlic knots
and expansive salad bar, not to mention their Garlic
Tuscan pizza...In the same feature, we incorrectly
described the Veggie Pizza at Strings Café in
Folsom (25035 Blue Ravine Road, Suite 120). This delicious
pie is loaded with Italian chesses, broccoli, mushrooms,
artichoke, bell peppers, olives, red and green
onions, and Roma tomatoes atop a zesty red sauce.
In September’s Introducing on Passport 2 Health
Chiropractic, we misprinted the answer to “Fun Fact
About Your Company.” Founder Devon Gaston DC, MS
stated: “I call it a ‘co-op’—every board member and
contributor (i.e. graphic designer, CPA, insurance agent,
general contractor) is also a patient.” For more on the
business, visit passport2health.co.

GET TO KNOW
Erica Pope
Rocklin resident Erica Pope remembers a
childhood bustling with activity, especially
cooking and cleaning—not for her family,
but for others. “My parents were always
doing community work and bringing people
together,” she fondly recalls. Their example
influenced Pope’s decision to go into the
nonprofit field where she worked in fund
development and community outreach
for Eskaton Foundation, an organization
that provides care and support services
for seniors while giving caregivers time for
themselves. “I loved feeling like I was making
a difference in somebody’s life,” Pope
shares.
But Pope’s life took an unexpected turn
when she had to stop working to care for
a family member who was ill. At the same
“We all have
a social
responsibility.”
—Erica Pope
time, she learned
that she would need
spinal surgery. Yet,
Pope was eager
to get back to the
career she loved and
after her recovery,
she jumped at the
chance to become the new Director of
Development for the Me-One Foundation
(me-onefoundation.org), a local nonprofit
that funds an annual pampering weekend
retreat in the Santa Monica mountains
for adult cancer patients and their family
members. Like many others, Pope has had
family and friends affected by cancer and
she knows how impactful such services can
be. She’s also a mom of two who hopes to
inspire her children to help others just as
her own parents once did for her. “We all
have a social responsibility,” Pope says. “The
community gives so much to us and we
should give back.” —Amber Foster
Q&A
What advice would you
give to your younger
self?
Take care of your body
and mind. They will either serve you well or
catch up to you. Either way, what you do
when you’re young will influence the rest of
your life.
What comes to you naturally?
Public speaking. I love the challenge of
engaging an audience and that moment
when you know you have them.
Are you high or low maintenance?
I’m high maintenance when it comes to food,
shoes, and coffee. But I’m low maintenance
when it comes to vacations or entertainment.
I’m content sitting around a campfire or
playing board games.
Biggest life inspirations?
Both my mom and dad are incredibly
remarkable and inspiring but my biggest life
inspirations come from the journeys and stories
of all the people I know and have yet to meet.
Everyone has a story and a lesson if we take the
time to listen.
What are you most proud of?
Keeping two children alive. I understand why
wild animals occasionally eat their young.
My children are 16 and 8 so anything is still
possible.
Favorite humanitarian cause?
Cancer causes and hunger. My dad often went
hungry as a child and the few stories he shared
were heartbreaking. No one should ever have to
experience that—especially children.
Best words of wisdom you’ve received?
“Always be on your best behavior when you
are out and about. You never know who knows
you or knows someone who knows you.”-Izetta
Jansma (my grandmother)

For something a little slower-paced—but
by no means, tame—sign up for Haunted
Hangtown Ghost Tours in Placerville.
The Cuppa Coffee & More investigation
takes place October 27 and the Carey
House Investigation takes place October
6, 13, 20, and 30. Both tours start at
around 7 p.m. and will take you through
the historic buildings. If the spirits come

If you’re looking for some thrills this
Halloween, Heartstoppers Haunted
House in Rancho Cordova will deliver.

Saturday (ends November 2), you’ll get to
“experience the brutality, greed, and filth that
was the undead West.” Choose to traverse one
of their four “haunts” and brace yourselves for
a fright—or three. Scares aside, there’s also a
fun carnival extravaganza, laser tag, haunted
photo booths, antique saloon bar, and more.
heartstoppershaunt.com
A crazy, bloody theatrical experience is coming
to get you with Sutter Street Theatre’s
Evil Dead The Musical. Five college
students go to an abandoned cabin in the
woods and accidentally unleash an evil force
that turns them all into demons. It’s all up
to Ash and his trusty chainsaw to save the
day. Blood flies, limbs are dismembered, and
demons tell bad jokes—all to music. Grab a
seat in the “[blood] splatter zone” and get
ready for some zany fun. sutterstreettheatre.
com/evil-dead-the-musical-2019

AMERICAN RIVER CONSERVANCY
BY EMILY PETER
ask the experts
Q: IS SHAVING EVERY DAY BAD FOR
THE FACE?
A: Shaving is excellent as it effectively
exfoliates your skin. When you shave
you are removing hair, dirt, oil, and also
dead skin cells. Your skin never stops
growing new cells and when the old
cells die and stay on your skin, they lead
to oil deposits, ingrown hairs, clogged
pores, and dull skin. If you’re seeing
irritation or bumps, consider your razor.
Many men are switching to a straight
razor due to razor burn. Using a straight
razor takes practice, but you can get a
great shave with only one pass causing
less irritation. We recommend letting an
expert show you the way, so it’s best to
have a licensed barber deliver your first
straight razor shave so they can safely
introduce you to proper shaving.

p.m.
This very strenuous twoand-a-half
hike will loop
from Training Hill to one of
the last legs of the Western
24 stylemg.com | OCTOBER 2019 | /stylemg /stylemediagroup /stylemediagroup /stylemags
States Trail where the first mile is almost straight
up. At the top you’ll connect with the Pointed

Q: HOW DO I KNOW WHICH GROUP
EXERCISE CLASSES ARE BEST FOR ME?
A: Any class that inspires you to
regularly attend is the best class for
you. Once you begin, your group fitness
instructor will be a pro at helping you
get through the most challenging of
classes. Week by week you will improve
and get stronger and the class that
seemed impossible the first time you
attended won’t seem so difficult after
several weeks. A few things to consider
when choosing what’s best for you:
-Determine the time of day that will
work best for your schedule.
-Decide what specific benefits you want
to achieve from your workouts. If you
are unsure what benefits each type of
class provides, reach out to the Group
Exercise Director for guidance.
-Don’t worry so much about whether
the workout may not be your level
because your level will improve
in a short time. You do need to be
challenged if you want to continually
see fitness improvements.
-Give yourself several weeks to try
several class types, instructors and time
slots.

Five Local Breast Cancer Support Groups
by JANET SCHERR
Courage and strength triumph over adversity
right here where we live. Breast cancer
patients, survivors, and their families who
have fought the disease have turned around to
become founders, activists, and volunteers at these
local breast cancer organizations.
ALBIE AWARE
Albie Aware Breast Cancer Foundation was created
in 2004 by Doug Carson to honor his late wife, Albie.
Tragically, Albie lost her battle with breast cancer and the
foundation now aims to replace fear with facts. Since its
founding, Albie Aware has provided assistance for diagnostic
testing to thousands of women and men in the Sacramento
area. “Along with testing, we serve as a go-to resource,” says
Amanda C. Nelson, Executive Director of Albie Aware. “Our
mission is to provide patient advocacy, prevention education,
and compassionate support to local individuals facing or
fighting breast cancer.”
albieaware.org
IMAGES OF HOPE (Serving El Dorado County)
Glass art making, silk scarf painting, yoga practice, and
equine therapy are just a few of the free classes offered
by Images of Hope to those who have been impacted
by cancer. Funded by the Marshall Foundation for
Community Health, the activities provide a pleasurable respite
from the stress that cancer patients and caregivers must deal
with on a day-to-day basis. The classes are small and casual
with local people from all walks of life. No prior experience
in art or movement is required. Additionally, there is a breast
cancer support group that meets monthly and most events
are held at the Marshall Cancer Resource Center in Cameron
Park. Images of Hope is also responsible for Pink in the Night
during the month of October where downtown Placerville is
illuminated with pink lights to symbolize the community’s
united fight against cancer.

SAVE OURSELVES
When a group of young women came together to support one another during
their breast cancer treatment, the collaboration turned into an extraordinary
friendship. That peer support became the prototype for Save Ourselves (SOS) Breast
Cancer Organization, founded in 1991 by those same, strong cancer survivors. Today,
its members and volunteers speak to civic groups, professional organizations, schools,
workplaces, health clubs, legislators, and community events about breast health
awareness. SOS also offers a variety of educational forums and fundraising events.
save-ourselves.org
GIRLS LOVE MAIL
Words can be compelling, especially if they
are written by hand. Girls Love Mail collects
handwritten–and often artistic–letters
of encouragement and delivers them to
women who have been newly diagnosed
with breast cancer. “I founded the charity
in August of 2011 after receiving over 200
letters, mostly from strangers, that helped
in my healing from breast cancer,” says Gina
Mulligan, founder of Girls Love Mail. “It’s
such a simple, yet powerful way to provide comfort. People from around the country
have joined in the cause and so far, we’ve sent letters to over 165,000 women!”
girlslovemail.com

PLACER BREAST CANCER FOUNDATION
Breast cancer survivors and South Placer County residents Carol Garcia and Teri
Munger formed the Placer Breast Cancer Endowment in 2005. The goal was to raise $1.5
million to endow a Breast Cancer Chair at the U.C. Davis Comprehensive Cancer Center.
“We reached that $1.5 million-dollar goal in 2014,” says Garcia, Board Chair. “But the
fight had just begun; and
now, as the Placer Breast
Cancer Foundation, our
volunteer-based group still
works tirelessly to raise
funds to fight breast cancer
and promote education
throughout the Placer and
Sacramento County area.”

Spotlight on
Folsom VYBE
by HEATHER L. NELSON
Photo by Dante Fontana.
What began as a small team challenge to positively impact others, has grown
into a large-scale musical celebration benefitting the Folsom community and
the Twin Lakes Food Bank. On October 17, VYBE will arise at the Harris Center
featuring a concert, commemorative album, fine food, craft beer, local wine, and more.
The volunteer VYBE team consisting of leader Josh Bollen and members Todd Speelman,
Taryn Grows, Jamison Hiebert, Greg Fuson, Robyne Cortes, Sarah Brown, Lisa Tuter, Jon
Lee, and Jacob Renfro, aim to not only support Twin Lakes but also nourish the community
at large. “Whenever we create connection between people, we decrease division,” shares
Bollen. “We hope that through VYBE, there are thousands of connections made between
people of all different walks of life.”
OCTOBER 2019 | stylemg.com 43
| arts & entertainment |
HLN: HOW DID YOU CREATE THE VYBE
CONCEPT?
JB: VYBE started as a challenge to staff at Lakeside
Church to do something that would inspire and
encourage our community, and so the original
group of three or four people started dreaming
about the project. We all love music and the idea of
a Folsom area compilation album quickly jumped
to the top of our list. Then someone mentioned the
idea of an album release party and the idea for VYBE
was formed. Knowing we had to assemble some key
community influencers, we invited several more
onto the team. The energy at that first meeting was
electric!
HLN: HOW ARE YOU COLLABORATING
WITH TWIN LAKES FOOD BANK?
JB: We knew there had to be more purpose than
just music—we also needed to give back to our
community. Twin Lakes has a mission to nourish
lives in our community and that’s a mission we
could all support. They do this by providing basic
needs of nutritious food and social assistance—while
VYBE [carries out a similar mission] through the
inspiration of the arts. We hope that through this
partnership, there will be hundreds, if not thousands,
of lives made better because of the resources raised.
HLN: CAN YOU SHARE MORE EVENT
DETAILS?
JB: The evening at Harris Center kicks off with a
VIP dinner provided by longtime Folsom staple,
Visconti’s. There will be vendors and sponsors
outside and in the lobby including album sales,
VYBE merchandise, and photo opportunities, with
every single dollar in profit going directly to Twin
Lakes. The concert will then be held in the main
auditorium featuring 10 bands throughout the
evening.
HLN: IN WHAT WAYS DO YOU HOPE TO
NOURISH THE WHOLE COMMUNITY?
JB: When you buy your ticket to VYBE you are
supporting not only the music and the arts, but also
the food bank. While the music will be diverse, the
purpose is unified. We hope this sentiment is shared
throughout all aspects of the event and that the
album will be a reminder of that unity. Even bigger,
VYBE wants to display what our little community is
capable of when we work together. It doesn’t take a
large corporation or millions to make a difference in
the world—all it takes is using the resources that you
have and giving them to others.

What to Read This Month
What’s Better
Than This
by Lorraine Salmon
This is a true love story that will
make you laugh and cry as if
you’re part of their relationship.
Lorraine and Mackey had a
whirlwind romance filled
with memories that were both
beautiful and heartbreaking.
Their 14-month story is one of
love, dying, and living.
Run Away
by Harlan Coben
A drug addict of a daughter leaves
home and says she doesn’t want
to be found. But one day her dad
sees her in Central Park and begs
her to come home. She runs and
he follows her into her dangerous
new world only to face things he
never knew existed—just in order
to save her.
An Anonymous
Girl
by Greer Hendricks
& Sarah Pekkanen
Jessica Farris needs money and
an opportunity seemingly falls
into her lap. She signs up to be
a test subject in a psychological
study about ethics and morality.
As the study progresses, Jessica
starts to feel like the doctor in
charge of the study knows what
she’s thinking and feeling, and her
actions are being manipulated in
a deadly game that she needs to
get out of.

when you’ve gone over

Reading doesn’t have to be a solitary
experience especially when you
can find book clubs almost
anywhere nowadays. They’re one
of the most popular forms of
adult socialization. And, there are
benefits to joining one. First of all,
it may help push you to finish a
book. It’s easy to find other things
to do but if you know you have
to read a book by a certain date,
being in a book club will help
you focus on reading. Reading
can reduce stress, improve
mental stimulation, and improve
memory. It makes you more
knowledgeable and can improve
vocabulary. Joining a book club
can also help you make friends.
So, where do you find a book club?
You can either start your own with
a group of friends or find one that is
already formed by checking your local
library, local book stores, or searching
online.

Helping
Hands
Local Food Banks
by JULIE RYAN
According to the California Association of Food Banks,
"1 in 8 Californian's struggles with food insecurity. Food
insecurity is the occasional or constant lack of access
to the food one needs for a healthy, active life."
Food is vital for living and those who don’t get
enough can suffer from physical and mental health problems. It can
affect every aspect of their lives from school to work performance and
home life. Hunger is not limited to certain people. Children, seniors,
disabled, working poor, and people who are dealing with unexpected
expenses can be affected. If you or someone you know is experiencing
hunger, there is help.

Dr. Bogard and her team are honored and grateful to
the STYLE Magazine readers who voted Dr. Bogard #2
Best Doctor and Bogard Health & Wellness #2 Best
Medical Practice. It is our honor to be able to serve the
local Roseville community.
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.

transformed their kitchen into the focus of the home.
The homeowners were eager to upgrade because of the
possibilities. “The chance to take a cramped, dysfunctional,
and dark space and make it into an efficient, light, and airy
environment that the whole family could enjoy [was exciting],”
shares Jane Reed, co-owner of Brush Strokes Inc.
New cabinets, countertops, floors, lighting, appliances, and
windows were all on the docket for this remodel. Dated oak
cabinets and tiled countertops were replaced with bright, white
cabinets featuring soft-closing drawers and doors, and a gorgeous
white ice granite countertop. Cabinet organizers and rollouts
were also installed to maximize space. Plenty of storage and a
large island were a priority. “They wanted lots of storage, a large
island that could fit all their grandchildren, and plenty of space
for entertaining,” says Reed. The oven was moved, and a desk area
removed to make way for floor-to-ceiling cabinetry; the island
remodeled with an overhang allowing counter-height seating for
eager onlookers.
A glass and stone mosaic tiled backsplash was added to create
contrast between the upper and lower cabinets, as well as dark,
wood-effect porcelain tile for the flooring to balance the nowbright
space. The homeowners kept their refrigerator which
inspired the black faucet and single bowl black sink that sits
below the newly raised window. The kitchen was finished with
new appliances (range, hood, dishwasher, and microwave) and
downlights, and was totally transformed into a welcoming hub of
the home. “[We are] very happy with this project and glad that the
homeowners are thrilled with their new kitchen,” shares Reed.

Hotel Grande Bretagne The Greece I
experienced on my late
winter, off-season trip
meant meeting locals
who are proud of their
heritage but remain
humble, a slow-paced,
enviable lifestyle that’s
all too easy to adapt
to, and landscapes
that reach far beyond beaches. The postcard-perfect Mediterranean
country—comprised of thousands of islands and often called the
“cradle of Western civilization”—stole a piece of my heart and only
a fraction of my money (prices are extremely fair when it comes to
Europe) but left me longing to return.

for tips on what to see and do and where to stay.

ATHENS
Hip, historic, enterprising, energetic. Welcome to Greece’s storied
capital city. The large metropolis—and one of the world’s oldest—is
home to just under one million people with a perfect mix of glam
and grunge. Strolling through one of the myriad neighborhoods,
expect to see sun-bleached ruins nestled next to modern
infrastructure and a surplus of side streets splashed in mesmerizing
murals.
STAY
For those who want to sleep in the lap of luxury:
Hotel Grande Bretagne pulls out all the stops. Sited next to
Syntagma Square smack dab in the city center, this five-star property
built in 1842 boasts Old World opulence, state-of-the-art amenities,
and plush décor that’ll make you feel like royalty. Breakfast on the
rooftop garden is a meal worth waking up for—think fresh-squeezed
juices, expertly crafted espresso drinks, and scratch-made Greek
and Western fare.

architectural wonders that make the

Dinner with the locals
Avoid the tourist traps that try to lure you
in with their faux food in glass-enclosed
cases and go where the locals go. Vezene,
a Greek-inspired, Michelin Plate bistro, is
sited in a cozy, sophisticated setting, and
dishes out family-style plates that may
include aged beef tartare “pastistio” style;
wood-fired pies with eclectic toppings
like cherry-smoked baby lamb; and
aged meats that melt in your mouth.
For those who appreciate a good pun
(and wholesome, high-quality comfort
food), Nice n Easy is a must. From “The
Paul Newman” (a Caesar salad with a
Mediterranean twist) to “The Marvin Gaye”
(minced buffalo meatballs with yogurt
and mint) and “The Marlon Brando”
(organic beef burger with cheddar,
caramelized onions, coleslaw, and pickles
on brioche), it’s a taste of Hollywood in
one of Athen’s most high-end ‘hoods.
NAFPLIO
The stunning seaport village of Nafplio,
the original capital of Greece and thought
to be one of the country’s most romantic
destinations, is located just under two
hours from Athens on the Peloponnese
peninsula and offers idyllic scenery with
easy access to renowned ruins. Often
3sixty Hotel and Suites
dubbed the “Naples of the East,” expect a
stunning coastline dotted with waterfront
cafés, unforgettable fortresses (including
Palamidi, which towers 999 steps above
the city), and narrow, cobblestone-studded
alleyways brimming with blooming
bougainvillea.
STAY
For an intimate boutique inn that
exudes elegance:
3sixty Hotel and Suites is a refurbished
neoclassical house from the 19th century
that holds tight to its past but has been
updated with all the amenities you’d
expect from a present-day property.

“Seas” the day
A trip to Greece really wouldn’t be complete with at least one island
adventure. And though the majority of visitors will immediately flee
to Mykonos or Santorini, a trip to the affluent island of Spetses—a
car-free, carefree place that’s rich in history (it was the first of the
Greek islands to raise the flag of Revolution on April 3, 1821), teeming
with tavernas, and relatively untouched by tourists—is well worth
the short drive and ferry ride.
Step way back in time
On your drive back to Athens, it’s imperative you stop at two of of
the country’s most popular and significant archaeological sites:
Epidaurus—known for its ancient theatre that’s thought to represent
the finest and best-preserved examples of a classical Greek theatre
with exceptional acoustics—and Mycenae—a fortified, late Bronze
Age citadel that was once the largest and most important center of
civilization.

“IT’S UNFATHOMABLE THAT THE REPUGNANT MINIATURE
CABBAGE OF MY YOUTH HAS BEEN REFORMATTED INTO A
MOUTHFUL OF SAVORY DELICIOUSNESS.”
HOURS: 3-9 p.m. (Wednesday-
Sunday)
TRY THIS: Pulled pork terrine,
French burger, crispy Brussels
sprouts, Hangtown burger,
BBQ albacore tuna, ginger
shrimp
Top to bottom: Brussel Sprouts, Ice-cream
Sandwich, Kobe “Hangtown” Burger, Pulled
Pork Terrine
DRINKS: Beer and wine
TAB: $$
HEADS UP: Outdoor dining,
happy hour specials, local
beer and wine, game room

seating)
Can you keep a secret? If I told you there is a
place to get upscale New American cuisine
with a French twist at one-half to one-third
the price of, well, anywhere, could I trust you
not to tell anyone? I didn’t think so; and that’s just what
owners John and Lynette Evans of Brewhouse at Jackz
like to hear.
Chef and owner John’s considerable knowledge
and skills showcase his menu, bringing locally-sourced,
house-made delights from charcuterie and appetizers
to entrées and desserts. I started with the crispy
Brussels sprouts. It’s unfathomable that the repugnant
miniature cabbage of my youth has been reformatted
into a mouthful of savory deliciousness. Served with
a trio of house-made sauces (mustard, ranch, and
black bean aioli) they’re a must-try. I also sampled the
pulled pork terrine—a charcuterie presentation of
roast pork that’s pulled, chopped, pressed into a terrine,
refrigerated, sliced and served on a butcher block with
bread, pickled cherries, and a mouth-watering red
onion jam.
During a conversation with Chef John, the topic
turned to the exceptional measures his beef and pork
vendors employ to bring the highest quality, humanely
grown, and processed product to market. This includes
the American Kobe (Wagyu) used in their burgers. From
there we segued to the main entrée(s). First,
beef cheeks that were slow-braised and served
with port wine, and demi-glace reduction,
and topped with pickled cherries, alongside a
perfect swirl of mashed potatoes.
I don’t eat many hamburgers—blasphemy,
I know, in this day of the fried-egg-kimchiavocado-Spam-Bánh
mi-vegetable-porkbelly-and-brisket
pantheon of burgers, but
they’re usually not up to the hype. So after
our previous conversation I decided I’d give
the Kobe “Hangtown” burger a try. Fairly
straightforward, it came with thick-cut bacon,
lettuce, cheddar, a little pickled jalapeño, and
house-made pickle as the only accouterments.
The flavor, juiciness, and texture of the Kobe
beef, filled me with a renewed enthusiasm for
the classic American creation.
After nibbling for an eternity on a massive
ice cream sandwich, I relented and asked for
the check. Which, upon its arrival, left me with
a distinct sense of reverse sticker shock.
Brewhouse at Jackz “specializes in New
American food and El Dorado craft beer and
wine,” say owners Lynette and John. And remember,
a secret is something you only tell your friends—and
now I’m telling you.

Sutter Station Sweets & Café // I found the cutest
café in Folsom! Adorable inside and out, it’s one of those places where you feel at
home as soon as you walk in. Once you take in the charming setting, you can focus
on the enticing menu—breakfast and lunch paninis, scones, cinnamon rolls, and
cookies bigger than your head. Seriously. Everything is baked in-house and all of it looks
so yummy. I ordered the breakfast burrito which happens to be their most popular
breakfast item. It was filled with bacon (or sausage if you please), scrambled egg, seasoned
potatoes, cheddar cheese, and a tasty sriracha sour cream all wrapped nicely in a fresh made tortilla.
My 10-year-old daughter had, in her words, “the best hot chocolate I’ve had in a long time.” I also bought a Chinese chicken salad
to go so I’d have something to look forward to for lunch. Yep, it was good, too. They also have chicken Caesar salad, spinach
salad, and the Station Salad, which has mixed greens, fresh tomatoes, bacon, dried cranberries, and sweet pecans. Honestly,
I don’t think you could go wrong with any choice on their menu. Other menu items include grilled PB&J, coffees and teas, and,
of course, cookies bigger than your head! 300 Reading Street, Folsom, 916-467-7070 —Julie Ryan
