Relm San Elijo. Wine. Beer. Bistro Relm – Relax, Enjoy, Laugh More. Fore those of you who have been to Relm Carlsbad, you must be thrilled that they are about to open their doors in the Town Center, right here in San Elijo Hills. For those of you who have never been, well, you’re in for a treat.
The empty space in the Marketwalk is about to be filled with a wine and beer bistro. Come February, San Elijo residents will have a new place where they can enjoy a relaxing and casual evening of good, hearty, rustic food with excellent wine pairings. If wine is not your thing, you have the opportunity to pair your bite-sized bits with local craft beer.
The Fountain heard that Relm San Elijo will be opening their doors around February 2012. We thank Jeff Rose, a San Elijo resident, for sharing with us his journey that brings him to the opening of the wine bar. Jeff has many years of training and service in the food and beverage industry. Among other locations, his resume includes a four-year stint as Manager and Wine Director / Sommelier for Arterra in the Carmel Valley Marriott. He has served as wine purchaser for Harvest Ranch Market, North County Wine Company, The Winesellar & Brasserie, and as an independent broker for Springboard Wine Company.
One of Jeff ’s clients is Relm Carlsbad, and he and Rene Fleming (owner of Relm), are associates and friends. When Rene thought to expand her Carlsbad location, and suggested San Elijo Hills, Jeff jumped at the idea. He feels a strong sense of responsibility towards the neighborhood and his friends and family here, and wants to help bring a perfect match to San Elijo. If you’re looking for hard-to-find wines and local craft beers that are unique, fresh and always changing and updated, Jeff says that Relm will offer a carefully chosen selection by-the-glass, taste or bottle as well for purchase in the retail section of the bistro. The charming, diverse, bistro menu will focus on fresh, seasonal preparations to pair with the craft beers and artisan wines and will range from appetizers for sharing to heartier fare for extended enjoyment. Relm San Elijo will be open from 3-10pm on weekdays, 3-11pm on weekends and will be closed on Mondays. Jeff Rose believes that the comfortable “at home” feeling, paired with the expansive and unique selection of wine and beer, and the good eats makes for a marriage made in heaven between Relm and the residents of San Elijo Hills. Relm is targeted to open in February 2012. We’ll keep you posted on the progress in the next issue of The Fountain; in the meantime, please “like” Relm San Elijo on Facebook, and check out thewinerelm.com.

San Marcos Tree Recycling Available The holidays have passed and it’s time to pack away those ornaments, and get rid of the tree. EDCO offers a few options to make this a little easier:
Curbside- People living in single-family homes can put their tree out on their regular collection day from December 26-January 13. Trees may not exceed four feet in height. Trees that are larger than the four feet limit must be cut to the right size. Please place your trees INSIDE your collection container. Drop-Off- Please recycle your tree from December 23-January 15 at the San Marcos Senior Center, located at 111 Richmar Ave. Please remember to take off all ornaments, tinsel, nails and tree stands. Flocked trees are accepted as well.
Over the next six months, the Association will be completing this extensive project in the following neighborhoods: Promontory Ridge, Westcliffe, Cedar Crossing, Acacia, Sagewood, Carmel, Calistoga, CrestView, Azure, Saverne, Cambria, Woodley’s Glen, Waterford, Mariner’s Landing and Meridian. If you are a resident that has community wrought iron fencing, it will be your responsibility to remove any and all attachments to the fencing, including, but not limited to, plant material, vines, chicken wire, rabbit guard, etc. In addition, the Association asks that pets be properly secured so that they do not interfere with work.
