Style Magazine - October - El Dorado County Foothills - 2021
No matter what type of good or service you're seeking (preschool, plumber, personal trainer, or a solid slice of pizza…), you’ve opened the right reading material. This issue, our biggest of the year, features the 2021 Readers’ Choice Award winners—the best our region has to offer in health, wellness, food, drink, home goods, arts, culture, shopping, and more. Turn to page 35 to find out if your favorite people and places made the list and use it as a pre-screened, reliable resource the next time you’re seeking a top doctor or memorable meal out. Besides the “Best of 2021,” we also delve deep into the spooky but oh-so scrumptious season of ghosts, goblins, and gourds in The 10 Spot (“Celebrate Halloween”; page 16), Editor’s Picks (“12 Autumn Essentials”; page 42), and Taste (“Must-Try Fall Foods”; page 62); introduce you to 5 local breast cancer organizations in “Fight Like a Girl” (page 20); and talk about the importance of home staging when it comes to selling your home in “Seal the Deal” (page 48).

Why did Bricks Eats & Drinks name<br />
their restaurant “Bricks”? Because<br />
their building is constructed mostly<br />
of… bricks. But beautiful building<br />
aside, they serve some of the most<br />
mouthwatering meals in town.<br />
TRY THIS: If you’re craving something<br />
seasonal but semi-healthy, try the<br />
Apple Chicken Salad that’s bursting<br />
with chicken, apples, cranberries, red<br />
onions, feta, candied walnuts (yum!),<br />
and an orange vinaigrette. Pair it<br />
with a Zombie Killer Apple Cherry<br />
Cider for the perfect fall meal. 482<br />

The owner of Kathrin’s Biergarten<br />
(not surprisingly named Kathrin) is<br />
from Germany, so you know anything<br />
you order will be authentic. Their<br />
entire menu screams Oktoberfest,<br />
which is particularly perfect this<br />
time of year. For anyone who loves<br />
schnitzel, bratwurst, fresh-baked<br />
Bavarian “bretzels” (pretzels),<br />
sausages, and German-style brews,<br />
it’s a dream come true.<br />
TRY THIS: The Apfelstrudel, served<br />
warm with ice cream or whipped<br />
cream, is full of diced red apples and<br />
cinnamon layered in a thin, flaky crust<br />
sprinkled with powdered sugar. Not too<br />
sweet and a little tart, this traditional<br />
German dessert is akin to apple pie<br />
but umpteen times better. 4810 Granite<br />
Drive, Suite 1A, Rocklin, 916-251-7502,<br />

Kathrin's Biergarten<br />
After years of dreaming about it,<br />
Julian of Folsom’s beloved Julian’s<br />
Pâtisserie and Café moved back<br />
home and opened his own pastry shop.<br />
Stop in and savor the endless amounts<br />
of pastries, crêpes, and other sweet (or<br />
savory) treats.<br />
TRY THIS: Fresh green apples, brown<br />
sugar, cinnamon, caramel sauce, and<br />
whipped cream make up the perfect<br />
Caramel Apple Crêpe. Talk about a<br />
breakfast of champions! 6610 Folsom-<br />
Auburn Road, Suite 7, Folsom, 916-936-<br />

Selland’s Market-Café has several<br />
restaurants in the Sacramento area,<br />
and they’ve been serving tasty farmto-fork<br />
meals for over 25 years.<br />
TRY THIS: Their seasonal Pumpkin &<br />
Ginger Soup with toasted pepitas is<br />
bursting with fall flavors and makes<br />
a perfect midday meal or light dinner.<br />
Don’t forget to end on a sweet note<br />
with one of their amazing house-made<br />
desserts. Good luck choosing just one!<br />

Family owned and operated, Wise<br />
Villa Winery offers award-winning<br />
vino and a Tuscan-style bistro with<br />
unforgettable food and beautiful views<br />
to boot.<br />
TRY THIS: What happens when fall and<br />
comfort food collide? Wise Villa’s<br />
Roasted Butternut Squash Ravioli in<br />
sage brown butter sauce. This is a<br />
seasonal dish, so get it while it’s hot!<br />
