Style Magazine - May 2022
Starting the month off with a mighty bang is Cinco de Mayo that commemorates the anniversary of Mexico’s victory over the French Empire (and is NOT their Independence Day which is celebrated September 16). We love a good party and never pass up the chance to have one. So, with that as inspiration, we bring you this month’s “30+ Local Latin American Restaurants To Try!” feature (page 85) that’s full of intoxicating eats that will guarantee a fiesta (definitely followed by a siesta!). While researching this article, we came across many other South American restaurants that warranted mention, thus expanding the feature to include Salvadoran, Brazilian, and other cuisines that will knock your socks off. Another holiday we can’t wait to celebrate this month is Mother’s Day (May 8). We all have our own ways of showing affection and appreciation towards our moms (or mother figures) on Mother’s Day, but as a magazine, we’ve come to love our “Get to Know” article each May that profiles some of the most magnificent mothers to grace our neighborhoods. Not a single one of them fails to inspire and warm our hearts, and this year’s “Mighty Moms” piece (page 16) is no less. If it weren’t already apparent, we’ve got so much good content on the following pages. So, grab a margarita (or any of the coffees in our “Hot List” department on page 102—if that’s more your thing), grab the family (including mom!), and make the most of May. Cheers and happy everything! —Tara Mendanha tara@stylemg.com

There’s a new Club in town! Visionary and Lady Boss, Jennifer<br />
Teie, opened The Green Room Social Club almost a year<br />
ago this <strong>May</strong>. Jennifer has been a successful businesswoman<br />
and fixture in El Dorado County almost her entire life; and<br />
with her vast experience and expertise in real estate, construction,<br />
and event production, Teie believes Placerville is ready for a local live<br />
entertainment venue.<br />
She knows what foothill locals know: You will drive hours to Lake<br />
Tahoe or the San Francisco Bay Area for a quality live music experience.<br />
“It's been a long time coming to have high quality live music, arts, and<br />
entertainment in our Downtown District.”<br />
Teie admits it has been difficult starting up and staying afloat amidst the<br />
many challenges facing small businesses today and recently partnered<br />
with the El Dorado Arts Council. The Arts Incubator program oversees<br />
and distributes tax deductible donations in support of The Green Room<br />
Artist Funds objectives, producing quality live entertainment in El<br />
Dorado County. “We hope the community will recognize what sets us<br />
apart and support our efforts so that we can stick around,” says Jennifer,<br />
one of El Dorado County’s fearless Women in Business.<br />
Ticketing, livestreams, and calendar are all online at clubgreenroom.com<br />
with doors open to the public Thursday through Monday at 4pm.<br />
