Make a date with your tastebuds

Looking ahead, there are some fun events going on for all you food and wine lovers out there. Mark your calendars...your tastebuds are calling.

Paradise Pantry is hosting a beer and cheese pairing event featuring local, Carpinteria brew masters, Island Brewing Company. Tuesday, September 1st. Taste 6 beers and 6 cheeses for $15. If you haven't tasted this local brew, make sure you get to this tasting or head up to their brewery in downtown Carp for a pint.


The Pantry has also started a wonderful tradition of Sangria Sundays. They claim their sangria is the best in town, calling it "fresh, delicious, and down right POTENT!" This fruity summer drink will be available every Sunday through the month of September.

The Cave now has a new and expanded lunch menu. Tuesday through Friday they serve Sandwiches, Panini's, Burgers, Salads and lots of other lunch items between 11:30am and 2pm. Some of the more tantalizing options include a Cobb salad, a Caprese Panini, and a Cuban sandwich.

Old Creek Ranch Winery
is hosting a Labor Day Weekend Open House Friday, September 4 through Monday, September 7. They are celebrating the end of summer and the release of their newest version of their Bronco Rojo (red) blend. They are offering 15% off all wine purchases, except Bronco Rojo, as they have only 15 cases.

I love going up to Island Brewery for a quick weekend outing. I'm so glad they got their permit back so we can drink on the patio and wave at the Amtrak passengers again.

I know, its such a great little spot. We bought a growler of their Stout the last time we were there...now I just need to get back up there to get a refill.
