Style Magazine August 2020
In this month’s feature, “A Local Wine Lover’s Guide” (page 57), we take you to a small sampling of our favorites, including ones that boast bocce ball courts (like our cover winery, Andis), plus share drinkable bottles for $25 or less, buzzworthy wine bars, and restaurants with winning wine lists. We also share current trends in the world of wine (spoiler alert: cans are cool…and readily available at places like Wise Villa Winery, Element 79 Vineyards, and E16 Winery!). It’s an ode to oenophiles that will hopefully make you more appreciative of our region’s robust wine region. With drinking comes eating, and—as per usual—we have plenty of content dedicated to dining. From a piece on Palladio at Broadstone’s Iron Horse Tavern (page 72), where writer Lorn Randall highly recommends the beignets (“pyramids of powdered sugar-covered orbs”); to another about Placer County’s first true Fillipino eatery, Kultura Café (page 76), there are a plethora of diverse dishes waiting to be discovered. For people with excess summer produce, turn to page 78 for recipes to make a garden-fresh feast that’s nutritious, delicious, and meat (but not flavor) free. At-home chefs will also be intrigued by this issue’s Editor’s Picks (page 44), where we highlight 14 foodie finds sure to make your kitchen the tastiest one around town. Finally, in Health & Wellness (page 28), we asked area experts—from licensed therapists to a pediatrician—for their top tips when talking to kids about race. As a mom to a biracial baby who’s already experienced some people’s unfortunate ignorance, this piece touches extra close to home. I hope we all take some of the suggestions to heart and do our part, as parents, in addressing this not-always easy but essential topic—ensuring the next generation values various cultures and sees individuals as opposed to stereotypes. There’s many more uplifting and informative articles in the pages that follow, so pour yourself a beverage and toast to this tumultuous yet historic time with Style by your side. Cheers!
