STYLE MAGAZINE-APRIL 2025

Prior to embarking on my editorial career, I paid the bills and gained a variety of skills in some unexpected ways: barista, caterer, caregiver, public relations assistant, and bartender. The latter I landed as a fresh-out-of-college, newly turned 21-year-old: mixing, mingling, and pouring cocktails for guests at the Langham Hotel in Sydney, Australia—a five-star establishment that set the bar incredibly high. I’m still not sure how I got the gig (my only bartending “experience” was pouring vodka and cranberry juice into red solo cups), but I quickly learned the ropes—and the recipes—and absolutely loved it. Over time, I not only became a self-proclaimed master mixologist but also gained invaluable insights into hospitality, including the importance of professionalism and presentation, and the subtle power of both a smile and an American accent. I also developed a deeper appreciation for the art of craft cocktails and the service industry itself. (Never did I ever go back to drinking vodka crans, by the way!)

From College Side Job

to a Thriving Business

While studying Administration

and Marketing at Foothill

College, I painted on the side

to cover expenses. My passion

for construction led me to start

Bayshore, and in March 1995, I

became a licensed contractor.

Soon after, I relocated to

Placerville, CA, where my

parents had retired.

Starting a business wasn’t easy,

but my hands-on experience

and dedication helped me

establish a reputation for quality

work. What began as a small

operation quickly grew into a

well-respected company, thanks

to strong client relationships and

a commitment to craftsmanship.

Over the years, we’ve had the

opportunity to work on a

wide range of projects, from

historic buildings to modern

commercial spaces.

Commitment to

Craftsmanship

I learned from old-school

professionals who emphasized

craftsmanship and attention to

detail. That foundation shaped

Bayshore Painters—not just

painting, but a teamwork-driven

company built on quality

and integrity.

Beyond technique, I believe that

painting is about enhancing

and preserving spaces. Whether

restoring an old building or

adding a fresh coat to a new

home, every project deserves

the same level of care. That’s

why we use only high-quality

materials and take the time

to prepare surfaces properly,

Celebrating

30 years in Business!

THE STORY OF BAYSHORE PAINTERS:

Quality, Craftsmanship & Community

ensuring long-lasting and

beautiful results.

Notable Projects

We’ve completed a variety of

residential and commercial

projects, including:

Poor Reds (interior/exterior)Skinner

Winery & Lava Cap Winery

Ace Hardware (during construction)

Buttercup Pantry

Multiple homes & churches in

Coloma State Park

Business district on Latrobe Road,

El Dorado Hills

A favorite: Veerkamp family home,

full of rustic charm

Keys to a Great

Paint Job

A quality paint job starts with

proper prep, including priming,

caulking, and premium finish

paint. I also enjoy helping clients

choose the perfect colors and

placement, ensuring the final

look matches their vision.

Many people underestimate

the importance of surface

preparation. A great paint

job isn’t just about color—it’s

about durability. That’s why

we take extra care in prepping

surfaces, applying multiple

coats when needed, and using

the best products for each

unique project.

Staying Ahead

in the Industry

The biggest mistake in painting?

Not applying enough primer or

finish. A proper coating must be

thick enough, and every surface

requires a tailored approach.

Client communication is also

key—we walk clients through

the process to build trust and

long-term relationships.

As the industry evolves, so do

the materials and techniques we

use. Staying up to date with new

products, eco-friendly paints,

and advanced application

methods ensures that we deliver

the best possible results for

our clients.

Choosing the Right

Painting Company

When hiring a painter, look

beyond the bid:

• Check BBB accreditation

• Call referrals

• Verify CSLB license

& insurance

• Ask about prep & materials

At Bayshore Painters, we uphold

the highest industry standards

and encourage homeowners to

do their research.

Giving Back

to the Community

We’re proud to handle painting

for EDCOE and multiple

local school districts. Our

commitment to the community

includes:

Donating to

Local School Sports

We often provide free labor

for charity raffles.

Going The Extra Mile

for Clients

We believe in building lasting

relationships, not just with clients

but with the community we

serve. Whether it’s a small touchup

job or a large commercial

project, our goal is to make a

lasting impact through quality

work and service.

At Bayshore Painters, painting

is more than a job—it’s about

craftsmanship, teamwork, and

giving back. We look forward

to continuing to serve our

community with excellence.

Prior to embarking on

paid the bills and gained

a variety of skills in

some unexpected ways:

barista, caterer, caregiver, public

The latter I landed as a fresh-outof-college,

newly turned 21-yearold:

but I quickly learned the ropes—and

Over time, I not only became a selfproclaimed

master mixologist but also gained “Drink because

service industry itself. (Never did I ever go back —G.K.Chesterton

to drinking vodka crans, by the way!)

Luckily, there’s no need to travel Down

Under (or even down to Sacramento!) to savor quality, cutting-edge cocktails in

buzzworthy settings. Our region is overflowing with creative beverages, both

boozy and booze-free, made with passion and precision. Turn to “High Spirits”

(page 66) for over 50 must-try sips, each one carefully curated by contributor

Sharon Penny. From timeless classics to more clever concoctions (think

muddled avocados, frothy egg whites, mole bitters, and more) and mocktails

worthy of a second round, there’s a sip for everyone. Keep this “cocktail bucket

list” handy and start sampling them all—slowly, but certainly not soberly!

With drinking comes eating, and we have plenty of bites to accompany your

booe. hec out “Sunny Side p” page 0 for five easy, irresistible brunch

recipes, courtesy of Caitlin Emmett and area eateries, including a decadent

stuffed French toast that’s worth setting your alarm for. In “Sandwich Revolution”

(page 84), Shawna Nenni writes about the region’s most delicious delis and a

“have to have” sub at each. And on page 78, Julie Ryan pens a piece about Ginger

Elizabeth Chocolates’ sweet new spot in Folsom that’s a “feast for the senses.”

Of course, there’s much more in store, too, including community events (see the

Calendar on page 28), a preview of what’s “New & Coming Soon” (page 12), and some

easy, budget-friendly backyard ideas (“Outdoor Oasis” by Kourtney Jason on page 61).

Sip back, relax, and enjoy the issue. Cheers!

biking, fishing, gold panning, and camping. “Explore the

Confluence area and hike to Lake Clementine,” suggests

McKenzie. “This moderate trail follows along the river and

under the Foresthill Bridge—the tallest in California—

and ends with a spectacular view of the falls over Lake

Clementine Dam. Lake Clementine is also a fabulous

spot for stand-up paddleboarding and kayaking.”

Uncork Adventure

Spend a day along the Placer Wine &

Ale Trail (placerwine.com), where rolling

vineyards meet hop-filled havens. With

over 20 stops, you can expect top-notch

tastings and vineyard views. “Most

wineries are family-owned and most likely

you’ll find the winemaker pouring in the

tasting room,” McKenzie says. Mother’s

Day weekend will be extra special along

the trail, with food trucks, vendors, music,

and more.

district that’s packed with charm, from

antique shops and old-timey saloons to

art galleries and unique boutiques. When

Aside from North America’s largest alpine lake, which needs

no introduction, there are many more precious gems to

discover and explore in Placer County. “Placer County offers

abundant and world-class outdoor adventures, including

majestic mountains, incredible lakes and rivers, and a

historic foothill region teeming with Gold Rush history,”

says Tiffany McKenzie, marketing director for Visit Placer

(visitplacer.com). Look a little closer and you’ll also find a

thriving culinary scene, quaint wineries and breweries, a

lively arts scene, and charming communities that celebrate

their past alongside hip shops and eateries. Whether you're a

nature enthusiast, a history buff, or just someone who enjoys

a good glass of wine, there is something to see and do.

Otow Orchard

Visit A Fruit Farm

Placer County has a rich history in citrus

cultivation, and is especially known for

its high-quality mandarins. Mandarin Hill

Orchards (mandarinhillorchards.com) in

Penryn has been at the forefront of this

legacy, nurturing trees that trace their roots

back to the 1880s. The annual Mountain

this year from November 21-23—is a can’tmiss

event that brings thousands of the handpicked,

citrusy delights, plus artisan crafts,

live music, and more to town. Meanwhile,

Otow Orchard (otoworchard.com) in Granite

Bay specializes in hoshigaki, the meticulous

Japanese art of hand-drying persimmons—a

process that involves peeling, stringing, and

massaging the fruit over many weeks to

achieve a tender, sweet delicacy.

For adrenaline seekers, whitewater rafting

on the American River is an unforgettable

experience. Tributary Whitewater Tours

(whitewatertours.com) offers an adventure

for everyone, from easy floats for the whole

family to heart-pounding class IV rapids and

even multi-day excursions. Prime rafting

season typically runs from late spring through

early fall, with water levels peaking in late

spring due to snowmelt.

For a stay that’s both rustic and cozy, check

into Miner’s Camp (foresthillminerscamp.com),

a Gold Rush-themed retreat in Foresthill

that offers 16 uniquely themed cabins, each

named after historic mines, such as the Blue

Eyes Mine and the Bogus Thunder Mine. The

cabins blend modern amenities with rustic

charm, while the forested 10-acre property

features fire pits, lawn games, and BBQs.

for 10 years and put in numerous hours

preparing for shows, hanging out with my

We know about a few of your

extracurriculars, but do you have

others?

I’m involved in many clubs at school,

including National Honor Society (NHS),

California Scholarship Federation (CSF),

Hands4Hope. I value giving back to the

community, and I can do this in various

ways thanks to the clubs. In NHS, we

collect donations every year from the

student body and purchase new toys that

we then gift to Toys for Tots during the

holiday season. I love getting to know

other students and making connections,

which I can do through Friends and

Foundations, where I help lead my peers

to engage with special needs students on

campus: hanging out and making crafts

or playing board games with them.

Spotlight on

Stan Padilla

by JENNIFER MARAGONI

”Blue represents the

transcendental nature of living.

Its harmony, resonance with

sacredness, and purity has

become a way of life for me.”

S

tan Padilla’s home and studios,

located in the valley along the

Bear River Watershed in rural

Placer County, reflect his Native

American heritage and core values.

“The studios are nestled in a peaceful

valley with an abundance of wildlife,

streams, ancient oaks, and a deep

indigenous history,” he says. “I strive for a

healthy, peaceful, creative way of life.”

The vivid blue walls of the buildings

emerge from the natural landscape. Blue

hues also dominate much of Padilla’s art.

For him, the color provides a deep sense

of contentment.

“As a young child, I had a near-death

experience that forever changed my

perspective on life and living. Vivid

color, creative geometry, harmony, and

positivity became a way to express and

heal from this traumatic experience,”

| arts & culture |

he explains. “The color blue has been

a large part of that transformative

healing process. Blue represents the

transcendental nature of living. Its

harmony, resonance with sacredness, and

purity has become a way of life for me.”

Padilla is a member of the Royal

Chicano Air Force (an artists’ collective

committed to social justice and civil

rights), has contributed to Sacramento’s

Wide Open Walls mural project, and

has authored numerous books of Native

American myths and legends.

How did you get your start as an artist?

I was a child prodigy. I began doing art as

a first grader, as if I remembered how to

do it. I was recognized and encouraged

by my teachers, and I’ve continued until

this day.

What mediums do you work in?

I consider myself primarily a painter

who branches out into other mediums,

including drawing, writing, muralism,

jewelry making, and all avenues of

experiential learning.

How does your Yaqui heritage influence

your art?

I’m proud of my native heritage. It’s who

I am. The culture is a deep resource

of mythology, life ways, customs, and

traditions as an inspiration for my art

making. I’m very contemporary in my

approach to making art, and ancient in

my philosophy and expression. I’m a

scholar of Native American art, customs,

and traditions.

Please describe your artistic process.

I’m inclined toward dreams, visions,

and mystical experiences and have

been since I was a child. I don’t make

a big deal out of it. It’s the source from

which my ideas emerge. I then use

my experience in different materials,

mediums, and expressions to manifest

these ideas, which become art with a

multimedia perspective. The process

of art making and the ceremony of its

becoming is as important to me as the

finished wor.

You’re developing an artists’ sanctuary on

your land. Tell us about this.

Throughout history, many artists have

left the complexity of modern urban

life to find a nature sanctuary in which

to focus their artwork. I follow in that

tradition. My studios (“peaceful valley”)

is set within the context of gardens,

seasonal change, open space, and forest.

You’re also an author and educator and

invest much of your time teaching youth

about social activism and environmental

stewardship.

An integral part of my creative process

and art is sharing knowledge and

experiences, especially with family,

young people, and like-minded people.

While embracing technological

wizardry, my focus is in the oral, the

time-honored, handcrafted wisdom.

I believe in higher intelligence, skills,

and the wisdom of nature, and I like to

share with young people. I’m currently

completing a California Arts Council

(CAC) Master Artist Legacy Fellowship in

which I was recognized for my artwork

and its transference to young people.

You’ve contributed to several murals. Tell us

about their significance.

The murals are an extension of my

studio work and philosophy with a larger

audience. I’m interested in sharing a

multicultural perspective with the public

and helping to create a cultural space

within our environment. My oldest murals

were done in the early ’70s and my latest,

which is at Golden One Center, was done

in 2020-21. I’m currently working on a

large, commissioned mural installation for

American River College, titled The Journey

from Knowledge to Wisdom.

How have your travels influenced you?

Traveling is another way of learning.

My travels are primarily for studying

art and culture, adventure, and cultural

exchange. I don’t consider them

vacations, as they’re often strenuous and

challenging. In 2024, I was able to visit

and work in Egypt, the Tuscany region

of Italy, and Santa Fe, New Mexico. In

time, we see the influences emerge in

my artwork and teaching experiences.

What do you hope viewers experience

through your art?

A sense of wonder and a sense of

reverence for their own lives and

environment. As an advocate for

human rights and social justice, I

hope that [my art] motivates them to

participate in bringing forth a more

egalitarian society.

Where can your art be viewed locally?

I’ll be having a one-man exhibit at

Blue Line Arts in Roseville from May

10-June 21, with other events and

exhibits planned for 2025 and 2026.

The best is to follow me on Facebook

(search “Stan Padilla”) and other social

media outlets. Hopefully, readers can

visit “peaceful valley” for one of my

open studio events during the spring

and summer.

7 MENOPAUSE MYTHS

by CAROLINE KINGS

Menopause is a major part of women’s

lives, but obtaining trustworthy

information about is often hard to find.

nd when we do find it, the details can be

confusing and overwhelming. Help is at

hand e ased local experts to debun

some common menopause myths.

MYTH 1: I don’t need to start thinking about menopause until I’m

in my 40s.

This is a common misconception the truth is, our hormone levels

can start fluctuating in our 0s. nna ashidi, harm, , at

Innovative ompounding harmacy (icpfolsom.com), explains

“rogesterone can start depleting in your mid-0s, leading to

symptoms such as insomnia, hot flashes, and irregular periods, as

well as mood changes.”

| health & wellness |

MYTH 2: Menopause is a sudden moment

in time when I stop menstruating.

onica illsey, , , at ignity

Health (dignityhealth.org), advises, “Many

women think menopause is an abrupt

transition where periods suddenly

stop. The truth is estrogen levels

decline gradually over several years.

erimenopause, the phase leading up to

menopause, may last anywhere from

7-10 years before menopause and may be

associated with symptoms such as hot

flashes or irregular periods.” The term

“menopause” refers to the time when you

haven’t had a period for a year in healthy,

non-pregnant circumstances.

MYTH 3: My menopause journey will

follow the same route as my mom’s.

“ot necessarily,” says ashidi. “s women,

we should certainly tal to our mothers

about their menopause experience, but

it’s not a given that ours will be the same.

However, if your mother went through

a premature menopause then that may

be passed on to daughters.” Time to tae

your mom out for a coffee and a chat

MYTH 4: My relationship with

my partner is likely to deteriorate

during menopause.

It doesn’t have to be as bleak as that,

according to ancy yan, , T, and

owner of elationship Therapy enter

(therelationshiptherapycenter.com). “It’s

important to talk openly about how

symptoms like mood swings, fatigue,

or low libido are affecting each partner.

omen can feel less attractive, less

confident, or struggle with the idea of

aging. Helping your partner be aware

of the symptoms can mae it easier for

them to understand.”

yan adds, “It’s important to

remember your partner’s current needs.

Instead of avoiding intimacy altogether,

explore new ways to connect intimately

more cuddling, massages, holding

hands, or different ways to have sex. I

see couples struggle when they don’t

tal about their sex life, and the woman

ust decides she doesn’t feel lie it

anymore, regardless of what her partner

might want. See couples counseling

for support, if needed.” s always,

communication is ey.

MYTH 5: Testosterone is a hormone

for men.

hile we’re on the subect of libido, let’s

discuss testosterone. This hormone is

associated with men, but women need it,

too—and during perimenopause, levels

can decrease. ashidi tells me that “ower

levels of testosterone can lead to a low

libido.” Spea to your doctor about low

libido, and they might suggest testosterone.

MYTH 6: Hormone replacement

therapy is unsafe.

hat can we do about symptoms such

as hot flashes, night sweats, mood

swings, joint pain (oh yes!), brain fog,

and vaginal dryness Says illsey

“nother common misconception is that

women need to ‘just live with’ symptoms

of menopause. Hormone replacement

therapy HT is generally safe and

effective for relief of symptoms for most

women under 0 who are within 10

years of menopause.”

HT received bad press in the

2000s, as illsey elaborates. “In 2002,

the omen’s Health Initiative found a

lin between HT and ris of blood

clots, stroe, and breast cancer. This

led to doctors avoiding HT. Since then,

however, there have been numerous

additional studies done that have

helped determine the risks are less

than previously thought, especially

when started closer to the onset of

menopause. This has led to broader

acceptance of HT as an option for

relief of menopausal symptoms. It can

also reduce the ris of osteoporosis and

hip fractures, as well as lower the ris

of diabetes and colon cancer. f course,

riss and benefits must be considered

individually. ertain women, including

those with a history of breast cancer,

stroe, heart attac, blood clots, or liver

disease should not use HT.”

MYTH 7: If HRT isn’t right for me, I’m

stuck with the symptoms.

There are other ways to help with

the symptoms, as illsey continues.

“ating a diet rich in fruits, vegetables,

whole grains, lean proteins, and

healthy fats can help to alleviate

symptoms. In addition, getting regular

exercise, particularly weight-bearing

exercisethin waling, hiing, and

strength training—has been shown to

improve energy and sleep cycles during

perimenopause and menopause. There

are other non-hormonal medications

that can be used for menopausal

symptom relief, too.”

s always, spea to your doctor

or and don’t suffer alone.

scertaining the facts for your health

and taing positive steps is critical to

a happy life, through this stage of life

and beyond.

Take a Hike

French, Bridle, & Stream Trail Loop

by RYAN MARTINEZ

LOCATION:

Oakland (Redwood Regional Park).

DISTANCE:

7.3-mile loop.

DIFFICULTY LEVEL:

Moderate.

KNOW BEFORE YOU GO:

The trail boasts an exciting 1,300-

foot elevation gain, offering a

rewarding challenge, especially

if conditions are wet or muddy. If

the main path gets crowded, no

worries—there are plenty of scenic

side trails to explore. Dogs are

welcome to join the fun but must be

kept on a leash. Wear sturdy shoes

with good traction, dress in layers,

and get an early start, as parking

can fill up quickly. Most importantly,

remember to respect nature and

follow Leave No Trace principles.

WHY WE LOVE IT:

There's something magical about

being enveloped by towering

redwoods. The gorgeous scenery,

peaceful forest, flowing river, and

solid elevation gain make this loop a

great workout and a restful respite

from urban life.

FUEL UP:

The burgers at Portal

(portaloakland.com) are

unbeatable, as are their daily

brunch and happy hour offerings.

Redwoods are the

tallest trees on Earth,

reaching heights of over

360 feet, with some

standing strong for

more than 2,000 years.

So, how do these

ancient giants grow

so tall, and why along

the Pacific Coast? The

secret lies in fog.

While most trees rely on

pulling water up from

the ground, redwoods

have specially adapted

needles that capture

moisture from fog,

allowing them to take

up water directly. What

isn’t absorbed directly is

condensed into droplets

that then drip to the

ground, providing water

to the understory.

Their wide-spreading

roots, though shallow,

are intertwined,

helping them to

stabilize each other and

even share nutrients,

something some

scientists refer to as

the “wood wide web.”

Through a complex

fungal symbiosis, the

process allows trees to

share resources and

even send chemical

and electrical signals

across this network.

Thanks to its laid-back vibe,

friendly service, and ample outdoor

seating (bring your pup—they

even have a “puppy chow” menu!),

Portal is a perfect place to stop

before or after your adventure.

More is More

Yoga studios were once dedicated to a

single style, but today, more people are

seeking a holistic approach to movement

and wellness—without the hassle of

juggling multiple memberships. This

has led to the rise of multimodality

studios, where yoga, fitness, and mindful

movement come together under one roof

with a diverse range of classes, including

yoga, Pilates, strength-based fitness,

meditation, and aerial yoga. This wellrounded

approach allows members to build

a balanced routine that supports flexibility,

strength, and recovery. I believe yoga

and fitness don’t have to compete; people

should be able to flow one day, sculpt the

next, and restore when needed, all within a

supportive community and at an affordable

price. Why settle for one movement style

when you can have it all?

EXPERT

by CAITLIN EMMETT

Q: HOW CAN I MAKE

GROOMING A SMOOTH

PROCESS FOR MY DOG?

Photo ©suthiwan - stock.adobe.com. Headshot photo courtesy of their respective company or organization.

A: Keeping a consistent grooming

schedule ensures your dog feels

comfortable and maintains a healthy

coat. To make it an effortless

experience, start by introducing

grooming tools gradually and in

a calm environment; use treats

and praise to create a positive

association; and regularly handle

your dog’s paws, ears, and coat

to help them get accustomed to

being touched. It’s also important

to brush your dog frequently

to prevent matting and ease

the process. Finally, choose a

professional groomer who uses

gentle techniques and understands

your dog’s needs; and schedule

appointments at a time when

your dog is relaxed to avoid

overwhelming them.

Outdoor Oasis

Budget-Friendly Backyard Refresh

by KOURTNEY JASON

As spring blossoms and warmer days beckon us

outside, it’s the perfect time to give your backyard a

refresh. Fortunately, a stunning outdoor space doesn’t

have to come with a hefty price tag. With a little

creativity and some smart, budget-friendly upgrades,

you can transform your backyard into a stylish and

inviting retreat without overspending. These costeffective

ideas will help make a big impact while

keeping your wallet happy.

START WITH A PLAN

Before making any updates,

consider the essentials of your

backyard.

• Prioritize the basics. “[Create a

backyard wish list] and stick with

the fundamentals,” says Randy

Gove, owner of Gove Landscape

Construction (govelandscaping.

com). “A yard with a sitting area

in the shade, [followed by] a water

feature and, finally, a firepit” will

make the most impact.

• Choose a theme or style. “Some

examples are Japanese-style, English

garden, contemporary-modern,

drought tolerant, low-maintenance,

traditional, formal, tropical, or

Mediterranean,” Gove adds. Having a

theme helps guide your choices and

keeps the yard cohesive.

PLANTS & LANDSCAPING

A few thoughtful plant choices can

completely refresh your backyard while

keeping maintenance costs low.

• Find the best plants for your space.

“Make sure your plant choices work

well in your zone and elevation,” Gove

says. “Choose a blend of evergreen and

deciduous plants to keep interest yearround.”

• Use drip irrigation and mulch. “Drip

irrigate all plants and up-light the

trees,” Gove says. Adding 2-3 inches of

shredded mulch helps retain moisture

and prevent weeds.

• Go native. “Native plants require

less water and attract pollinators,”

says Katie Combellack, owner of

The Meadow (growatthemeadow.

com). onsider wildowers lie

coneowers, blac-eyed Susans, and

milkweed.

• Add a pollinator water feature.

“A shallow water source like a

repurposed dish or small pond

provides hydration for bees and

butteries,” ombellac says.

• Replace old shrubs. “Not all shrubs

last forever,” says Juliet Voigtlander,

owner of El Dorado Nursery

(eldoradonursery.com). “If they look

old or unattractive, replace them with

fresh greenery and new mulch for an

instant refresh.”

SMALL UPGRADES, BIG IMPACT

Sometimes, the smallest updates can

have the biggest effect.

• Replace cushions and pillows. “If new

furniture isn’t in the budget, swap out

old cushions or add bright toss pillows

| home & garden |

for a fresh look,” says Tami Kint,

director of marketing at Green Acres

Nursery & Supply (idiggreenacres.com).

• Improve lighting. “Hang string lights,

add lanterns along pathways, or

highlight a favorite tree or fountain for

a cozy glow,” Kint says.

• Decorate with pots and planters.

“Well-placed pots brimming with

owers can liven up patios and garden

beds,” Kint says. Larger pots can even

double as side tables.

• Incorporate soothing sounds. “A

fountain or wind chime adds charm

and makes your backyard feel like a

true retreat,” Kint says.

DIY PROJECTS

For homeowners willing to put in some

extra effort, these budget-friendly

projects can make a major difference.

• Create a sitting area. “A small patio

made from pavers or stepping stones

is a simple DIY project,” Voigtlander

says. “Level the area, add a base layer

of sand, and place stones, leaving gaps

if desired.”

• Build a vertical garden or trellis.

“Use reclaimed wood, old ladders, or

wire mesh [to create a DIY trellis] for

climbing plants,” Combellack says.

Vertical gardening maximizes space

and adds beauty.

• Lay down upcycled pathways and

mulched beds. “Use free wood chips

from tree services, [the city, or SMUD],

or repurpose old bricks and stones for

pathways,” Combellack says. Laying

down cardboard as a weed barrier

under mulch keeps weeds at bay.

LAWN ALTERNATIVES & SHADE

SOLUTIONS

Ditching high-maintenance grass can

save money and create a more ecofriendly

space.

• Replace your lawn with a garden.

“Convert old lawn space into a

pollinator-friendly garden with

native plants like salvia, yarrow, and

California poppies,” Voigtlander says.

• Add citrus or shade trees. “If your

yard gets too hot, plant small trees

like citrus, crabapple, or western

redbud for shade,” Voigtlander says.

• Create a vegetable or fruit garden.

“Raised beds, berry bushes, and semidwarf

fruit trees can replace lawn

areas while providing fresh produce,”

Voigtlander says.

Creating a beautiful backyard doesn’t

have to mean draining your savings.

With a few thoughtful updates—whether

it’s repurposing materials, adding cozy

lighting, or refreshing your greenery—

you can design an outdoor oasis that

feels fresh and welcoming all year long.

*Free wood chips are available to

residential SMUD customers. Bring

your own tools and a tarp to load/carry

them; pick up is at the SMUD Yard (6100

Folsom Boulevard; between 59th and

65th Streets in Sacramento), Monday-

Friday from 9 a.m.-2:30 p.m. Bailey

Tree Company also delivers free wood

chips within Sacramento, Placer, El

Dorado, and Yolo counties. For more

HIGH SPIRITS

COCKTAIL BUCKET LIST

by SHARON PENNY Back in my day, a cocktail was a Screwdriver, a Grasshopper, or a Harvey Wallbanger;

they had funny names and ingredients like orange juice, crème de menthe, or, uh, orange

juice. Now it’s all (waves hand in a ranting way) elderberries and moonlight, smoked whiskey with charred bee

stings, and fresh-squeezed blood orange juice. Psych! This isn’t actually a rant because you know what? Modern

cocktails are awesome. Please fill my glass with moonlight and bee stings, bartender: I’ll take these flavorful,

thoughtful, fancy cocktails over a Screwdriver any day. Lucky for you, we compiled a list of some must-try

local cocktails—both classic and creative, and even booze-free—and I can say, with confidence, that I’d

happily drink all of them. (Perhaps not all at once, though).

APHRODITE

21ST CENTURY

BARREL-AGED MANHATTAN

THE WINNIE

APEROL SPRITZ

VESPER

SPICY MANGO MARGARITA

WAKE-UP TINI

A connoisseur of the maximalist

spirit, Bacchus House Wine

Bar & Bistro goes above and

beyond when it comes to their

décor, service, and culinary

creations. The cocktail menu

can’t be missed; it’s bursting

with fresh, flavorful ingredients

and creativity.

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: Aperol

Spritz with Aperol, prosecco,

sparkling water, and an orange

slice; served in a wine glass on the

rocks. If the Cosmopolitan was the

drink of the ’90s, Aperol Spritzes

are the drink of the 2020s. Come

join the cool kids.

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Aphrodite

with raspberry-flavored vodka,

Chambord, lemon juice, and a halfsugar

rim. Nothing says “best night

ever” more than a pink drink in a

martini glass.

1004 East Bidwell Street, Suite

100, Folsom, 916-984-7500,

bacchushousebistro.com

Located on Folsom’s Sutter Street,

Gaslight Co. offers vibes that are

both historic and classy, including

an old-school hidden speakeasy

lounge called The Backroom (open

Thursday-Saturday from 6 p.m.). The

cocktail menu is thoughtful, highly

creative, and bursting with fresh

local ingredients and housemade

syrups.

Must-Try Classic Cocktail:

Vesper, a martini made with

London dry gin, vodka, and

Lillet Blanc. Popularized

by Ian Fleming’s 1953 novel

Casino Royale and as timeless

as James Bond himself.

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: 21st

Century with gin, cucumber, fresh

grapefruit juice, fresh lime juice,

Gaslight’s own basil syrup, Italicus

Rosolio di Bergamotto, peach

bitters, and an edible flower. A

boozy springtime sipper that’ll put

a pep in your step.

MOCKTAIL: The Winnie (named after

Winnie, the Sutter Street mini

pig) with muddled strawberries,

pineapple juice, fresh lemon and

lime juice, Gaslight’s house-made

basil syrup, and soda water; though

the ingredients slightly shift with

the seasons, “The Winnie” (and the

pig herself) are always around.

718 Sutter Street, Suite 200, Folsom,

916-358-9447, gaslightcofolsom.com

Sienna offers a creative

cocktail menu that will perfectly

complement your next fine dining

meal or vastly improve your next

happy hour session.

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: The aptly

named Barrel-Aged Manhattan

with George Dickel Bottled in

Bond, Carpano Antica Sweet

Vermouth, and Angostura bitters is

aged in an oak cask for 30 days. A

slow-sipping classic you’ll want to

savor every sip of!

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Wake-Up

Tini with Absolut Vanilla Vodka,

Mr. Black Cold Brew Coffee

Liqueur, locally roasted Vaneli’s

espresso, and house-infused vanilla

simple syrup. It’ll see you well

through the wee hours.

MOCKTAIL: Spicy Mango Margarita

made with Ritual Zero Proof

Tequila, fresh lime juice, mango

purée, and house-infused habanero

agave nectar. It brings the spice

without the spirits!

1006 White Rock Road, Suite 200,

El Dorado Hills, 916-941-9694; 1480

GIN & TONIC

LITTLE MAVERICK

BEACH BONFIRE

Milestone is the bar with a view, right in the heart of

the El Dorado Hills Town Center. Soak up the scenery

on their expansive patio while enjoying a creative

cocktail crafted from a deep bench of spirits (check

out that top shelf!).

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: Gin & Tonic with Fords Gin and

Milestone’s house-made tonic. As far as we know, they

don’t frown on Nick and Nora Charles’ cosplay in this

establishment (kids, ask your grandparents to tell you

about The Thin Man movies).

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Beach Bonfire with

Herradura Silver Tequila and habanero-infused

Aperol with grapefruit and lime juice. It’s sure to put

a fire in your belly!

MOCKTAIL: Little Maverick contains no actual alcohol but

is full of flavor, thanks to Lyre’s White Cane Spirit (nonalcoholic

white rum), orgeat syrup, orange and lime juice,

cream, and nutmeg.

4359 Town Center Boulevard, Suite 116, El Dorado Hills, 916-

934-0790, milestoneedh.com

MERRY BERRY VIRGIN MOJITO

OLD FASHIONED

PROSECCO CUCUMBER

Visconti’s Ristorante is well-known for their

excellent Italian fare, but they’ve also got an extensive

cocktail menu—and the bar and patio recently

underwent a major glow up, aka expansion—boasting

everything from drinkable desserts (hello) to bona fide

classics and creative sips.

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: Old Fashioned with Booker’s

Small Batch Bourbon, simple syrup, a dash of Regan’s

Orange Bitters, splash of soda, lemon, orange slice, and

Luxardo cherry. A notorious favorite of Jon Hamm's

character in Mad Men; despite Don Draper's flaws, he had

great taste in cocktails.

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Prosecco Cucumber with Ketel

One Oranje Vodka, fresh-squeezed lime juice, fresh

cucumbers, and orange-flavored liqueur; shaken and

served in a cucumber-lined flute topped with Ruffino

Italian Prosecco. If this refreshingly sweet and altogether

delightful cocktail doesn’t restore your faith in humanity,

well, order another.

MOCKTAIL: Muddled raspberries, blackberries, and

mint leaves, fresh-squeezed lime, simple syrup, and

orange-flavored liqueur are topped with soda water

and Sprite in the Merry Berry Virgin Mojito. And,

yes, it’s merry good.

TOM KHA 3.0

BLOOD ORANGE NAGARITA

Auburn’s Restaurant Josephine already has a

die-hard following for their exquisite cuisine, but their

cocktail menu really puts them over the top with

thoughtful spins on many classics, as well as rotating

seasonal cocktails. And the bar itself is a whole mood,

straight out of 1920’s Paris via Auburn’s Gold Rush.

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: Negroni “en Blanc” with

tarragon-infused Hayman’s Old Tom Gin, Salers

Aperitif, Cocchi Americano, and grapefruit bitters.

It’s Josephine’s play on a White Negroni and

delivers all the refreshing bitterness, and more, of

this classic cocktail.

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Tom Kha 3.0 features gin,

coconut, lemongrass, ginger, Thai basil, lime, and chili

oil; a unique, playful take on Thai coconut soup. Who

says you can’t drink your dinner?

MOCKTAIL: Blood Orange NAgarita includes Free Spirits

reposado-style tequila, blood orange juice, cinnamon, lime,

and a salted rim; trust me: this one’s a mocktail keeper.

NEGRONI "EN BLANC"

APRIL 2025 | stylemg.com 67


The Independent Restaurant and Bar

prides themselves on their handcrafted

specialty cocktails, including both innovative

creations and thoughtfully crafted classics, all

made with an array of infused liquors, fresh

juices, and house-made mixers.

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: Paper Plane, with straight

bourbon, Ramazzotti Amaro, Aperol, and fresh

lemon, is a modern, Bourbon-forward take on the

classic Last Word cocktail.

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Ruby Seas, featuring Ron

de El Salvador Cihuatán 12-Year Aged Rum, fresh

lime, muddled raspberries, Campari, Luxardo

Cherry Syrup, Angostura orange bitters, and a

house-made ginger beer float. This one isn’t so

much a cocktail as a vacation for your taste buds.

MOCKTAIL: T-N-T, aka tonic “no” tequila, includes

house-made tonic syrup, fresh lime juice, and

soda water. A simple and simply satisfying sipper.

629 Main Street, Placerville, 530-344-7645,

independentplacerville.com

Folsom’s Back Bistro is the perfect spot

to unwind with a cocktail made using the

freshest ingredients. Relax next to the

fire pit on their cozy patio or belly up to

their huge wraparound bar.

Must Try Classic Cocktail: Sazerac with

Milam & Greene Port Cask Finished

Rye, Peychaud’s bitters, absinthe

rinse, cane sugar syrup, and a lemon

expression. One of the oldest cocktails and

the official cocktail of New Orleans; take a

swig and laissez les bons temps rouler!

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Smoked Old Fashioned

includes bourbon, alongside smoked maple

syrup, an orange expression, black walnut

bitters, and house-made brandied cherry. With

your pick of bourbon from their extensive

menu, this cocktail becomes a real smoke show.

MOCKTAIL: Thanks to cold brew, Lyre's Coffee

Originale, simple syrup, half and half, and dark

chocolate, this spirit-free Espresso Martini will

have you buzzing—but not from the booze.

230 Palladio Parkway, Suite 1201, Folsom, 916-

986-9100, backbistro.com

A big, beautiful dining room, complete with

richly stained mahogany doors, limestone

counters, custom light fixtures, and 22-foot

palms make Fat’s Asia Bistro one of our

area’s most popular, and prettiest, eateries.

Their Asian fusion fare and craft cocktails are

equally impressive.

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: Mai Tai, a combo of light

rum, Gosling’s Black Seal Rum, orange juice,

pineapple juice, and a float of Lahaina Special

Dark Rum is poured into an ice-filled glass with

a float of grenadine; their menu says it best:

“No doubt about it, the best Mai Tai in town.”

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Your taste buds will

bloom after one taste of the Cherry Blossom,

which includes equal parts Smirnoff Cherry

Vodka, Smirnoff Vanilla Vodka, sweet and

sour mix, and simple syrup—shaken with ice

and poured up into a martini glass filled with

grenadine. Spring has sprung.

Middle-siblings welcome. (Get it? Mules?

Stubborn? This is a joke for eldest siblings.)

House of Mules Cocktails & Kitchen

is a sophisticated craft kitchen and elevated

sports bar all rolled into one. In addition to

their dizzying variety of mules (as advertised),

they’ve got an exciting selection of craft

cocktails.

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: Rose Linen with

Aviation Gin, rose syrup, lemon juice, and

lemon-lime soda. A rose by any other name:

House of Mules’ fragrant take on the classic

Pink Linen cocktail.

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Guava Mojito with

Bacardi, guava purée, lime juice, fresh mint,

and lemon-lime soda. If you have a soft spot

for tangy fruit cocktails, they've guava just the

muddled ginger, ginger syrup, lemon juice, and

mango purée. Refreshingly fruity with a snap

Don Quixote's Mexican Grill has been

serving great Mexican cuisine since 2006, and

they truly flex their creativity with an exciting

cocktail menu. From thoughtful re-creations

of classics to unexpected originals, there’s no

such thing as a wrong choice here!

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: The Dirty Martini,

made using Tanqueray Gin and dry vermouth

with a colossal, blue cheese-stuffed green olive.

Honestly, you had us at colossal green olive.

The olive is 50% of the reason I order martinis:

Don Quixote’s understands the assignment.

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Oro Verde mixes

traditional blanco house tequila (infused

with poblano chiles) with a muddled Hass

avocado, lime juice, and agave. Much like this

unexpected cocktail, my astrological traits are

spicy, smooth, and tangy.

MOCKTAIL: Mangonada with fresh mango, Tajin

purée, agave nectar, lime juice, and a swirl of

house-made chamoy. Whether you want to call

it a dessert, a beverage, or both, one thing is

certain: it’s delicious!

2164 Sunset Boulevard, Rocklin, 916-773-1800,

It’s impossible to talk about Poor Red's Bar-

B-Que without talking about cocktails (they’re

also known for great barbecue, though). This is

the home of the famous Gold Cadillac, created

in 1952 at Poor Red’s in a bar that looked a lot

like the one still standing today. Where else

can you experience cocktail history?

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: Gold Cadillac, a blend

of Galliano, white crème de cacao, and cream.

Creamy deliciousness in a fancy glass—and it

comes with a bonus sidecar. No notes.

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Pink Squirrel, a blend

of Crème de Noyaux, white crème de cacao,

and cream. Yes, it’s a Cherry Garcia version of

the Gold Cadillac, but it’s cocktail heaven. Let

us praise creamy drinks with sidecars!

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: French 75 with Empress

1908 Indigo Gin, sparkling wine, cane syrup, and

fresh-squeezed lemon juice. A cocktail so classic it

even had a cameo in Casablanca (along with many,

many other cocktails: a very boozy movie!).

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Raspberry Martini with

house-infused raspberry vodka, fresh lemon juice,

and sparkling water over a giant ice cube. Vibrant

in color and taste, it’s sweet, tart, and bursting

with the season’s juiciest fruit.

syrup, grenadine, lime juice, edible glitter (you

syrup, aquafaba, and bitters; aka Crawdads’

(really good) rendition of a Whiskey Sour.

this one in your regular cocktail rotation if you

haven’t already.

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Passion Star Martini

juice with a sidecar of sparkling wine. Bold,

league of its own. The cocktail program is equally

impressive, thanks to thoughtful, complex drinks—

without any triple sec in sight.

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: Margarita Classica with

reposado tequila, lime juice, orange moonshine,

agave nectar, and a salt rim, served on the rocks. Is there

anything more classic than a margarita on the rocks? Is

there a more dangerous combination than tequila and

moonshine? Welcome to the Thunderdome.

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: El Borracho with huitlacocheinfused

Sierra Norte Whiskey, sotol nectar, and mole bitters.

This exciting and unique creation is a one-way ticket out of

your margarita-based comfort-zone and into the exciting

regional flavors of Northeastern Mexico. Let’s go!

MOCKTAIL: Hibiscus Agua Fresca with hibiscus flower, agave

syrup, lime and orange peel extract, and cinnamon; it’s

sweet, it’s tart, and, yes, you’re going to want another.

MARGARITA CLASSICA

Psst! From the creative brains behind Fourscore Coffee,

House Divided is a speakeasy-style bar located in the

heart of Roseville’s downtown district. Tucked in an alley,

you’ll need a secret password to enter. Décor is English

hunting-lodge-chic, the cocktails are creative (house-made

simple syrups, don’t ya know), and the gin is mercifully not

made in the bathtub.

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: Mary Pickford, whose combination

of white rum (Plantation 3 Stars, in this case), pineapple

juice, lime, maraschino liqueur, and grenadine—shaken,

chilled, and served up with a cherry—has been pleasing fans

of sweet, punchy drinks since Prohibition.

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Tea Thyme Fizz features Citadelle

Gin, lemon, orange bitters, white tea, and thyme-infused

simple syrup with an egg white and club soda. Nothing

makes you feel more like you’re officially “out on the town”

than a fizz, and this unique flavor combo comes with official

“fancy” status.

MOCKTAIL: Uncle Abe features Seedlip Grove 42, lemon, Sprite,

cucumber, and mint; it looks like a cocktail and tastes like a

cocktail minus the horrid hangover.

323 Lincoln Street, Suite B, Roseville, 916-521-0204,

Plank Craft Kitchen & Bar is located on Folsom’s Sutter

Street and specializes in California comfort food. Their craft

cocktails are designed to lure you to the patio fire pit for a

cozy evening overlooking Lake Natoma.

Must-Try Classic Cocktail: Plank-Hattan with Elijah Craig

Kentucky Straight Bourbon, sweet vermouth, Campari, and

Aztec Chocolate Bitters; served up with a Luxardo cherry.

Who doesn’t love a boozy chocolate and cherry combo? I

know I do—send me two and keep them coming!

Must-Try Creative Cocktail: Prickly Passion Mojito featuring

Saltwater Woody Rum, passionfruit purée, and prickly pear

syrup; topped with soda water and mint. This tropical rum

cocktail will have you singing old sea shanties in no time.

Don’t get shanghaied!

MOCKTAIL: Hibiscus Margarita with Almave Ámbar (nonalcoholic

blue agave spirit), hibiscus-infused agave nectar,

and fresh-squeezed lime and lemon juice, with a Tajin/

sugar rim; garnished with an edible candied hibiscus flower

and dried lime wheel. Who needs booze when you have

ingredients this good?

Cioppino

If you’re looking for a perfect

“bang for your buck” date night

experience, Mia Restaurant & Bar might

just be the place. The ambiance strikes

an ideal balance between playfully

upbeat and subtly sophisticated,

with both intimate and group seating

options. The décor is thoughtfully

Sapphire

Mia’s rendition, loaded

with mussels, prawns, bay

in flavorful house marinara,

designed and impossible not to like.

We began our meal with the

burrata pizza, a dish that came highly

recommended by our waitress (instead

of my initial inclination toward the

steak tartar, much to my wife’s delight).

I’ve recently rekindled my love for

pizza (and believe me when I say it’s

Lamb Shank

a deep one), and this was one of the best

pies I’ve had in years. Was it nostalgia?

Doubtful. Burrata, for those unfamiliar,

is a beautiful cheese comprised of a

mozzarella shell encasing a creamy,

slightly stringy filling of stracciatella. This,

accompanied by fresh cherry tomatoes,

basil, and a balsamic glaze, reminded

me why Italian cuisine is so well loved

throughout the world. The combination of

flavors and textures was nothing short of

exceptional.

Next, we dove into entrées, beginning

with one of my all-time favorites: cioppino.

Originating in 1800s San Francisco, this

iconic seafood stew was born from Italian

fishermen who would all “chip in” with

their catch of the day. Mia’s rendition,

loaded with mussels, prawns, bay scallops,

Ruby

clams, and salmon in flavorful house

marinara, certainly did the dish justice.

Our second entrée was the lamb

shank, accompanied by mushroom

risotto and a red wine demi-glace. A bit

of personal history here: my love for

lamb began while working as a guide

in Patagonia, where local gauchos

would split a lamb and cook it over an

open flame. The meat’s earthy, slightly

gamey taste became a fast favorite. This

version delivered all the beautifully

robust flavors lamb is known for;

combined with the mushroom risotto

(which, truth be told, stole the show),

each bite was rich, heavy, and filling.

While we were planning to indulge

in dessert, we had to forego the

temptation. Next time, I’m saving room

for the “Mia Dream” (chocolate cake

with ice cream and chocolate sauce) or

perhaps a piece of tiramisu.

Would I crown Mia the greatest

restaurant I’ve ever dined at? Not quite.

But would I place it at the top of my list

for date night? Absolutely.

You’ll be hard pressed

to find a better value

for your money. With

exceptional food, an

inviting atmosphere,

and a solid drink

menu, it’s a place that

offers fantastic value for

your money. I’ll be back for

round two.

Chocolate that is almost too pretty to eat. Almost.

Everything about Ginger Elizabeth Chocolates is

a feast for the senses—the décor, the packaging, and, of

course, the chocolate! There’s seriously so much to love.

The namesake owner and chocolatier, Ginger Elizabeth

Hahn, opened her first retail store in Sacramento in 2007. Since then, she’s mastered

the art of chocolate-making and expanded her offerings to include macarons,

homemade hot chocolate, and more. In fact, Ginger has even crafted an exclusive

frozen macaron sandwich and published her very own macaron cookbook (available

in-store and online). But back to the stunning sweets. Many of them are made using

locally sourced fruit, dairy, and nuts, elevating every bite. Deciding what to devour may

be difficult, but I couldn’t resist a 12-piece chocolate box, 9-piece caramel collection,

and fleur de sel lollipop. After getting past the “too pretty to eat” issue, I dove

right in—and didn’t regret a single bite. The chocolate was smooth, creamy,

rich, and delectable (my favorites were the brown sugar crème brûlée and

the sweet cream chai), and the caramels buttery and indulgent, with playful

flavors like salty caramel and sweet rose caramel. Next time, I’m treating

myself to Ginger’s famous hot chocolate (I hear it’s out of this world), a

macaron, and maybe some ice cream; or, better yet, a frozen macaron

sandwich! Two treats in one? Yes, please!

Sandwich fans, rejoice! Our

region is home to some of the

best ones around, from creative

combos with inventive twists to

the classics made right. Bring

your appetite and let’s explore

laid-back, Hawaiian-inspired ambiance and hearty sandwiches

piled high with premium meats, cheeses, fresh produce, and clever,

quintessential Cali add-ons like rich cream cheese and avocado.

Their fan-favorite Surfin’ Bird is a must-try. It’s packed with

turkey, avocado, bacon, and cream cheese—talk about a perfect

beachy bite. Local locations in Auburn, Cameron Park, Colfax, El

trattoria serves hearty plates of homemade pasta in a lively, sitdown

setting (plus a full bar), while the casual deli offers gourmet,

made-to-order sandwiches crafted using fresh mozzarella, premium

meats and cheeses (sliced in-house), and freshly baked bread.

The Calabrese Panini is a bold, savory choice packed with salami,

capicola, pepperoni, provolone, and hot spread sauce on your

choice of herb focaccia or ciabatta, plus pickle chips and a side

salad (their caprese is always a crowd-pleaser). 8621 Auburn Folsom

Road, Granite Bay, 916-786-3355, dominicksmarketdeli.com

Erik’s Delicafe, founded in 1973 by Erik Johnson, brings the

coastal charm of Santa Cruz to life locally with sandwiches

made from high-quality meats, cheeses, and fresh produce. Each

sandwich is complemented by the deli’s slow-simmered, homemade

soups, whose daily flavors include tomato basil bisque, butternut

squash, clam chowder, and chili. The “Secret Goo” is Erik’s signature

touch, and it certainly adds a burst of flavor to every bite. Erik

Berger is one of many must-tries: a warm sub loaded with smoked

ham, Monterey Jack cheese, onions, tomatoes, and clover sprouts,

complemented by said sauce. Fun fact: Any sandwich here can be

made on gluten-free, whole-grain bread at no additional charge.

Main Street Melters

While sandwiches are great on-the-go grub, at Main Street

Melters on Placerville’s charming “main street,” you’ll likely

want to sit, stay, and sip (they serve local craft drafts) awhile.

Their serene, spacious patio—shaded by trees and umbrellas—is

the primo place to while an afternoon away. With both classic

and creative sizeable subs (plus salads!), you can’t go wrong

with anything here; though, we recommend pairing whatever

you order with a pint. For a hint of heat, try the Bird Sandwich,

featuring spicy chipotle chicken, zesty pepper jack cheese,

creamy avocado, and a fresh medley of lettuce, tomatoes,

onions, pepperoncini, and hot peppers. 589 Main Street,

Placerville, 530-303-3871, msmelters.com

From take-and-bake pizzas to tacos, breakfast burritos, and fully

customizable sandwiches and wraps (plus much, much more!),

Gularte’s Pizza & Deli is a family-owned gem that serves

nearly everything under the sun. Combined with a cozy, welcoming

ambiance (indoor and outdoor seating are both available), it’s the

secret menu is “The Spicy Pig,” a pulled pork

Timmy’s Brown

Bag is the deli for you.

Cameron Park Coffee &

Deli is the unicorn of cafés:

good food, strong coffee, and a

cheerful atmosphere (complete

with a vibrant art wall). Though

their bevy of beverages and

house-baked muffins (fun fact:

they’re gluten-free!), cookies,

and banana bread are worth

waking up for, don’t sleep on

their sandwiches either. Word

on the street is their Tri-Tip

Sandwich is the local favorite;

and with tender barbecue tri-tip

piled high on a toasted French

roll alongside chipotle sauce,

pepper jack cheese, and crispy

onions, how could it not be? 3161

Mr. Pickle’s Sandwich

Shop has been serving up

fresh, flavorful sammies for

over 30 years. Known for their

cold, hot, classic, and “not so

secret, secret menu” offerings,

it’s no wonder they’re a lunch

(and dinner!) time go-to. One

standout is the aptly named The

G.O.A.T., which layers savory

ham, capicola, pepperoni, salami,

and provolone cheese alongside

fresh tomatoes, onions, pickles,

pepperoncini, lettuce, and tangy

red wine vinegar. The greatest of

all time, indeed. Did we mention

every sandwich here also comes

with a complimentary cookie?

Congrats to this month’s

nonprofit of the month:

Keaton’s

Child Cancer

Alliance

VOLUNTEER

SPOTLIGHT: Betty

Marchbanks

What inspired you to become a volunteer for

Keaton's Child Cancer Alliance?

I had always wanted to volunteer, but while

working full-time, my schedule was limited. After

I retired, my husband and I traveled together, but

in 2020, he unexpectedly passed away. I found

myself searching for purpose, and I realized that

volunteering was the answer. I started asking

around and discovered Keaton’s Child Cancer

Alliance—it was the perfect fit!

What do your volunteer duties entail?

When I first met with the Director of Operations,

Melinda, I told her I wanted to support the team

behind the scenes. Everyone needs someone

helping in the background. My duties include

inventorying donations, restocking shelves, entering

data after events, assisting with event décor,

assembling care packages for kids and families, and

organizing supplies.

Is there training required?

No formal training is required, but anytime I take on

a new task, I receive guidance, as needed.

What’s the time commitment?

When I started, I committed to volunteering two

days a week for four hours each. I also frequently

volunteer at events, which I love because it gives

me the opportunity to see both sides of the

organization—fundraising efforts and family events.

Every week, I look forward to working with the

incredible Keaton’s team.

What’s been the best day of volunteering so far?

Two moments stand out. The first was at a Keaton’s

tea party event at the park, where young girls

dressed as princesses met a real-life princess. I

overheard a mother say that if it weren’t for Keaton’s

events, they would rarely leave the house due to her

daughter’s illness. That truly touched my heart.

The second was a bowling event, where families

and supporters came together to fundraise for the

organization. I played, laughed, and bowled for the

first time in years. Seeing the kids so happy and

engaged was an unforgettable experience.

What’s one of the biggest challenges?

I wish I was younger and had more energy to do even

more! But every moment I spend volunteering with

Keaton’s fills my heart, and I’m grateful to be part of

this incredible mission.

Roseville-based Keaton's Child

Cancer Alliance is dedicated to

serving families across Northern

California affected by pediatric

cancer. Their mission is to support

children battling cancer and their

families with emotional, educational,

and financial support while increasing

awareness and funding research

toward cures. Through the nonprofit’s

Family Navigator Program, they offer

customized services, including family

connections, joy-filled experiences,

emotional support, nutritional aid,

teen and sibling support, financial

assistance, travel solutions, and

education and advocacy. From

diagnosis through treatment and

beyond, they’re committed to

providing hope, strength, and

healing—ensuring no child or

family faces the challenges of

childhood cancer alone.

For more information, including

ways you can donate or volunteer,

visit childcancer.org.
