DECEMBER 2016 • VOL. 10 • ISSUE 12

The holidays are a magical time to be a parent. If you could only bottle the joy in your children’s eyes as you bring down the box of holiday lights from the garage rafters or their uncontainable excitement on Christmas Eve as they await Santa’s arrival!

Lucky for us, south Orange County is a mecca of holiday happenings. From the Dana Point Boat Parade to photo ops with Mr. Claus, and tree lighting ceremonies to frolicking in the snow (that’s right, the real deal!), we’ve got you covered in this month’s issue. Read about local holiday festivities and more from Laguna Niguel to San Clemente on page 26 - 27. And for a quick glimpse of family fun all month long, check out our centerfold calendar.

December’s cover features Dr. Karl Gebhard, the founder of Ross Legacy Medical Group. Dr. Gebhard and his associates practice family medicine that cares for an entire community, focusing on traditional ideals while being innovative and technologically current. Learn more about the interesting story behind the practice and how the doctors give back to community on page 10.

From all of us at The Local DISH Magazine, we hope you and yours have a happy holiday and New Year!

An Ode to Holiday Health and Wellness 'Twas the holiday season And all through the town People were wondering "How to keep the stress down?"

The answer was simple and tested with time, Better see your doctor On your health insurance's dime.

ROSS LEGACY MEDICAL GROUP Modern medicine. Traditional Care.

• Primary Care • Wellness Checkups • Urgent Care Hours (without the fees) • Open 7 Days + Holidays • Online Appointment Registration • Digital X-Rays On-Site • FREE Youth Sports Physicals

When Dr. Karl Gebhard, the founder of Ross Legacy Medical Group, was a young boy, Little House on the Prairie was filmed on a horse property near his house in the L.A. area. “It was fascinating to watch famous actors play their roles, but what struck me most was Doc Baker and his vintage doctor's bag. I wondered if actual physicians still used those doctor's bags and if they were as much a part of their town and families as the Doc Baker character was on the show,” says Dr. Gebhard.

As you grow a bit older We Think You May Find A Physical at Ross Legacy Will Give Good Peace of Mind.

So this holiday season Remember what's true Take good care of your health And Ross Legacy will, too!

Cheers!

Dr. Karl Gebhard Ross Legacy Medical Group

Many years later, Gebhard was talking to an older physician and noticed he carried a black bag almost identical to Doc Baker's. He pondered if he had finally met a real life "Doc Baker." It turned out that he had, and that man was Dr. Ross.

After graduating from medical school and working in several corporate-owned clinics, Dr. Gebhard formed a partnership with Dr. Ross. He wanted to practice family medicine that cares for an entire community, focusing on traditional ideals and a strong work ethic while being innovative and technologically current. When Dr. Ross passed in 2008, Dr. Gebhard promised himself that he would continue that same mission.

Dr. Gebhard feels fortunate to be back at the Mission Viejo location that Dr. Ross founded over forty years ago. He and the team at Ross Legacy Medical Group are proud to serve the families of south Orange County. To schedule an appointment, please call 949.305.0110 or visit RossLegacy.net. Walk-ins are always welcome.

EVERY 3rd SUNDAY Ross Legacy Medical Group treats patients for a nominal donation on the 3rd Sunday of each month.

All proceeds benefit the Marine Reconnaissance Foundation.

• Did your carpet seem to get dirty soon after the cleaning?

• Did the same spots come back within a couple of days?

• Did it seem to take forever for your carpet to dry?

• Did you end up paying more then you were led to believe?

If you answered yes to any of these questions you probably were disappointed with your last carpet cleaning. Well I’m glad to tell you “not all carpet cleaners are created equal”.

5 Reasons You Should Call ZEROREZ® to Clean Your Carpet - And No One Else!

1) Your Gotta Love-It™ Guarantee. If you are not totally delighted with the results of our cleaning, we will not accept your payment.

2) Many Satisfied Clients. Since 2003 we’ve built our reputation, one delighted client at a time. Check us out on Yelp, Google and Angie’s List to verify for yourself that we live up to our bold claims.

3) Most Thorough Cleaning. Our patented, green-cleaning system will flush-out old, soil-attracting, residue. We’ll pre-spot, agitate, clean, rinse and finish groom your carpet. If you feel our carpet cleaning wasn’t the best, most thorough and effective cleaning you’ve ever had, you don’t pay. No hidden or small print, just a solid,

honest guarantee that assures your complete, 100% satisfaction with our service.

4)4)Non-Toxic, Soap-Free, Eric Bollmann, Co-Owner Green Process.

Zerorez stands apart from all other carpet cleaning companies with its patented process that turns ordinary tap water into a powerful cleaning powerhouse. Called Empowered™ Water it eliminates the need for soap and other toxic chemicals to get your carpet clean, healthy and residue-free.

LOCAL

FOOD & FUN

BY AMY FOX

In a tucked away corner of San Clemente’s Talega Village Center, an unexpected gem awaits. With a Cheers-like atmosphere that makes locals and even first-timers feel at home, Barnoa Wine Company serves up a quiet spot for relaxing with friends, enjoying delicious small bites and sipping beautiful glasses of wine.

New owner Mike Trebing has expanded Barnoa’s offerings with the addition of a full-time chef, increased menu options, and a well-curated wine shop featuring wines from all over the world with a California-focused selection.

I recently discovered my new favorite wine at Barnoa when I was offered a glass of Obsession. As its name implies, just one sip and you’re hooked on its sweet and refreshing notes. Obsession is one of the newest white wines to make Barnoa’s line-up of 12 whites and 15 reds.

Barnoa’s bites are unique and tasty, bar none. The Nutty Goat offered a mild blend of goat and cream cheese that is sweet (due to its chipotle brown sugar drizzle) and nutty. I dare you to stop at a single bite! The satisfying Pulled Pork Sliders delivered just the right kick and the Deviled Eggs, topped with crumbles of crispy bacon, jalapeños and chives, made a perfect low-carb, protein snack.

To-die-for desserts include Black Russian Chocolate Cake and Vinnie’s famous Lemon Goat Cheese and Blueberry Compote. The off-menu chocolate lava cake was a delicious and decadent way to cap off my experience. The rich, warm brownie covered in whipped cream and berries was irresistible.

Barnoa Wine Company offers a daily Happy Hour from 4 to 6 p.m., Tuesday wine flights, Wednesday Wine-Down (a local favorite for Girls Night Out), and Thursday Wine Tastings (with occasional beer tastings, too). Live music takes place on Friday and Saturday nights.

Check out Barnoa’s Sip & Shop event on December 6, from 4 to 9 p.m., for a fun way to tackle that holiday gift list while having a glass, or two! If you’re looking for a place to party on New Year’s Eve, celebrate at Barnoa with Irish band, Key of Whiskey. Make your reservations today!
