“Our menu is inspired by the many diverse cultures found along the Silk Road and beyond, spanning everything from everyday street food to the fine dining traditions of Samarkand.”

We had an impromptu lunch with Austin of @salinas_charreria_slo to check out what Uzbek and Eurasian cuisine Chef Conrad Karl was bringing to @downtownslo.

We were delighted with everything brought to the table Scallion Pancake, Uma’s Salad, Kebobs, and Manti with Meat.

    ☀️ Mornings are the heartbeat of Halcyon Farms (@h ☀️ Mornings are the heartbeat of Halcyon Farms (@halcyon_farms ). Six days a week, the work commences by 7am in the quiet of the dawn. It’s during this time that the berries are cool and firm, the greens crisp, the herbs fragrant. Each day presents a different list of farm maintenance activities. Some mornings are spent harvesting produce; others are dedicated to planting seed. Time-intensive crops such as green beans or carrots are harvested early in the week, while errands and school tours happen midweek or later. 

As the sun fully rises, it also allows the crew to observe how the produce is progressing and what it needs. By midmorning, the farm hums with energy. The farm stand opens to the community on Tuesdays, Fridays and Saturdays. Customers can buy one of Halcyon’s harvest bags, filled with a curated selection of the freshest produce, often picked in the hours just prior. There are baskets filled with other produce, too, including seasonal offerings such as Swiss chard or delicate herbs. Their summer strawberries are a community favorite for their natural sweetness. Halcyon’s carrots are among the stand’s most popular items — and Ariela’s favorite crop to grow. “Carrots from a farm taste so much better than carrots from a store,” she says convincingly. “They’re just so different.”

The care for land and community doesn’t stop with the thoughtfulness and dedication of the farm crew’s harvesting hands. Halcyon is committed to organic, pesticide-free growing, which means their planting, maintenance and harvesting necessitates extra work. It’s slower, but the commitment to this growing style protects Halcyon’s carefully developed reputation with the community they are deeply embedded in.

    Whether it’s an entrée at a restaurant or a tastin Whether it’s an entrée at a restaurant or a tasting at a winery, the unpleasant fact is that prices increase over time. Few in the industry end up getting rich. Most do what they do simply because they love serving people, making exceptional food and creating memorable experiences.

    Wow! Big news this morning about Firestone Walker Wow! Big news this morning about Firestone Walker Brewing Company and the craft beer industry. Proud of our hometown brand:
 
“Firestone Walker Brewing Company and Duvel Moortgat USA today announced that they have signed a definitive agreement with Stone Brewing, a subsidiary of Sapporo USA, to acquire the Stone Brewing brand, as well as select hospitality locations, bringing one of America’s foundational craft breweries into a family of like-minded brewers.
 
At the heart of the next chapter for Stone Brewing is a shared commitment to craft, a fearless spirit, and long-term brand building. Firestone Walker will serve as Stone’s West Coast home, offering a natural fit rooted in California brewing culture, with the scale and experience to support Stone’s continued evolution.
 
The acquisition includes four Stone Brewing hospitality locations: Stone Brewing World Bistro & Gardens at Liberty Station in San Diego, along with tap rooms in San Diego (Little Italy), Oceanside, and Pasadena. The Liberty Station location will continue to operate as both a hospitality destination and an active brewing facility, maintaining Stone’s physical presence in San Diego. 
 
The partnership is designed to accelerate Stone into the future, while staying true to the character that has defined it for three decades. Like Stone, Firestone Walker was founded in 1996 and is widely regarded as one of California’s leading craft brewers. Firestone Walker will play a central role in supporting Stone’s future, as the two coastal breweries together represent a powerful expression of California’s craft heritage.”
