And the recent New York-style/ Jewish delicatessen addition to the Coast Village Road restaurant lineup, MONTESANO MARKET & DELI, is a great example. Start the day with an espresso and delectable pastry from D' Angelo Bakery, or indulge in a cozy comfort lunch of house-made matzo ball soup, a classic pastrami on rye or green salad—take it to go or relax on the spacious outdoor patio or indoor dining space.

What happens when a veteran tech couple—as in married—fuse a tech start-up process concept with great beer and a love of their local community? The result is the Funk Zone's hottest new brewery and gastropub, VALIDATION ALE , where customers' orders are translated into votes to determine an evolving tap list. The Validated beer in each category is the most ordered, and the Vying beer is a new recipe, challenging the incumbent. If the challenger sells more, it will take over as the new Validated brew. The delicious and diverse menu—fried pickles, burgers, salmon salad and one of the tastiest fried-chicken sandos we've ever had. 102 E. Yanonali Street, validationale.com, @validationale

LUNCH

DINNER

HAPPY HOUR

Adam and Tom White 1981

OPEN FOR BREAKFAST, lunch, dinner and weekend brunch, The Revere Room also hosts various special events, like their monthly wine dinner series featuring multiple courses of seasonal delicacies paired with wines from top producers throughout California.

INSPIRED BY THE NUMEROUS farms and purveyors within the Central Coast, Executive Chef Massimo Falsini and his team create culinary dishes that place special emphasis on local, seasonal ingredients including vegetables and herbs from the resort’s own on-site culinary garden. That “local first” mentality is showcased in The Revere Room’s thoughtfully crafted menus, featuring such mouthwatering brunch favorites as the Lemon Ricotta Pancakes with seasonal berries and the Santa Barbara Farmers’ Market Bowl with poached eggs and roasted vegetables; to lunch and dinner standouts like Nonna Gloria’s Meatballs with tomato passata and Pecorino; Citrus Marinated Halibut Ceviche with avocado, jicama and fresno chilis; Beluga Lentils & Quinoa with cauliflower and rapini; and Crispy Monterey Salmon with charred asparagus and salsa verde.

“THE BOUNTY OF PRODUCE we have in this area is incredible,” says Paul Osborne, Resort Chef at Rosewood Miramar Beach. “Because of this we have a strong focus on plant based and vegetable-focused cuisine. The Santa Barbara Farmers’ Market is plentiful yearround, and our menus are inspired by what is at the peak of season locally.”

TO ACCOMPANY THE FOOD MENUS, diners will find a selection of craft cocktails, from the signature Smokey Old Fashioned to the classic Margarita, along with regional and international wines by the glass and bottle. For the perfect pairing, try the Lunch Prix Fixe Menu, featuring three courses with a glass of wine, or look to Osborne’s go-to combination of crudo and rosé: “Our Longfin Yellowtail Crudo pairs perfectly with a glass of Liquid Farm Rosé, especially while sitting on our patio on a balmy summer evening.”

CAL-ITALIAN CUISINE INSPIRED BY THE BOUNTY

The Revere Room

LOCATED AT THE LUXURIOUS Rosewood Miramar Beach in Montecito, The Revere Room is the resort’s newest onsite eatery, where Italian-inspired Coastal California cuisine celebrates the beauty and bounty of the American Riviera.

OF THE CENTRAL COAST

Rare

A CLASSIC REQUIRES COCKTAILS: American whiskeys and bourbons are featured prominently, in the Rare Old Fashioned (complete with a garnish of Italian lardo) and a “lighter, brighter” Manhattan, while the Spanish Tile combines aged rum, cherry liqueur, fortified wine and absinthe.

PLAYING WITH FIRE: “I’ve built my entire culinary program around live fire,” says Wise, who grills premium meats over American Red oak in the exhibition kitchen.

Dry-aged rib-eyes, Australian wagyu and filet mignon are complemented by steakhouse classics like oysters Rockefeller and raw bar specialties.

A ROOM WITH REFERENCES:

Pulling inspiration from old-time travel, the main dining space is dominated by a row of central booths designed to mimic Victorian train carriages, while the merlot-colored walls conjure local wine grapes, and velvetand-leather seating oozes that Old Vegas essence.

ALL SERVED ON A LAZY SUSAN: Everyone loves to share food, and guests who order one of Chef Wise’s meat boards—The Associate or The Executive—will sample multiple cuts of beef alongside a variety of house-made sauces.

HAPPY ENDINGS: Steakhouse indulgence continues with Rare Society’s decadent desserts, including a classic butter cake, bananas Foster cheesecake and the chef’s favorite, the créme brûlée. Anyone for an Espresso Martini?

HOok & press donuts

An artisan donut shop and cafe serving scratchmade, seasonally inspired donuts along with a limited breakfast menu, locally roasted coffee and a selection of Central Coast beer and wine. Voted Santa Barbara's Best Donut Shop in 2019, 2020 and 2021. 512 State Street, 805.965.3363

JILL'S PLACE

A little off the beaten path sits Jill's Place, a favorite among locals for their "old school dinner menu" of steaks, fish, chops and chicken all of which include soup, salad and a choice of sides. The meats at Jill's Place are hand picked daily and come directly from their local familyowned meat company.

632 Santa Barbara Street, 805.963.0378

JOE'S CAFE

The city’s oldest restaurant opened in 1928 in what had previously been a laundry, a blacksmith and a slew of restaurants. Guests stream in beneath the classic neon marquee, then gather at the bar for famously generous cocktails or hunker down in booths for some good, old American saloon food. 536 State Street, 805.966.4638

L’Antica Santa Barbara is the newest West Coast location of one of Naples’ oldest pizzerias. Offering welcoming service and authentic Italian cuisine, including the not-to-be-missed Neapolitan pizzas the restaurant is known for, it’s the next best thing to being in Italy. 1031 State Street, 805.770.8055

1187 Coast Village Road, 805.770.2269

L'Antica Pizzeria da Michele

A LONG-STANDING TRADITION

Originally founded in 1870, L’Antica Pizzeria da Michele is one of the oldest and best pizzerias in Naples, a city known as the modern birthplace of pizza. As the brand’s newest West Coast outpost, L’Antica Santa Barbara pays tribute to the food and age-old traditions of Italy.

PIZZA IS A WAY OF LIFE: L’Antica is most known for its 151-year-old Neapolitan pizza, which was featured in the movie Eat, Pray, Love. The Margherita, a simple staple of tomato, cheese and basil, will transport you to Italy with one bite, while the Carbonara Pizza, featuring eggs, smoked bacon, cheese and black pepper, is a delicious rendition of the beloved Italian pasta, in pie form.

ITALY MEETS CALI: The food menu celebrates the traditional flavors and ingredients of Italy, with a nod to the seasonal bounty of California. From handmade pastas with imported cheeses to salads with local citrus and entrees of locally-caught Santa Barbara seafood, every skillfully-made dish is a delicious journey between the two regions.

PRO-CURED: We’ll never say no to cured meat, and L’Antica delivers. In fact, the restaurant has its own in-house salumeria, meaning mouthwatering salumi is always at your fingertips.

DINE AL FRESCO: Located in a Spanish-style historical landmark building along State Street, the restaurant offers an inviting indoor and bar setting, complete with a pizza oven churning out delectable pies, but it’s hard to beat an al fresco meal from the large, treecovered patio.

SAVE ROOM FOR DESSERT: L’Antica’s classic Italian desserts, like Tiramisu and Affogato Al Cafe, are a delightful way to end a meal, but during the summer months, a scoop of gelato from the on-site gelato cart is the next best thing to actually being in Italy.

AFTERBURNERS: A harbor-side breakfast may be OTA’s best-kept secret (but not for long). Pile on your favorites in your “breakfast bowl,” or grab an egg sandwich, French toast sticks, waffle sticks or avocado toast spiced up with pickled onions and daikon sprouts.

WATER WORLD: OTA’s location is as good as it gets, overlooking a fleet of working fishing boats, with long views to the hills behind Ventura. Morning, noon or night, this is THE place

VALIDATED…AND VYING: The name plays on a process tech start-ups use, which Validation Ale modified to decide what should be on tap. New beers, called “vying,” are pitted against previously validated beers. Outsell the incumbent, and they take over as “validated.” New beers are developed in-house and through recipe submissions from home or pro brewers.

SIP AND LEARN: Beer lovers often get little info about their favorite beverage, but Validation proprietors Brian and Briana Deignan have come up with a visually dynamic, informationally rich charting system to describe exactly what’s what.

BEER BARN FOR TECHIES? Validation’s tech-forward space includes unique ontable QR codes that reduce lines at the bar and enhance service by allowing guests to order and pay at their leisure, even if they’re away from their table.

BEYOND PUB GRUB: Another entrepreneurial couple who, Brian says, “are prolific in their recipe creation,” runs the kitchen inside Validation. “The Philly tritip is ridiculously good, and so is everything else.” Look for breakfast on weekends starting in fall.

LOCALS BUILDING A COMMUNITY:

“We live here, and we are thrilled to join the other local, family-owned businesses in town,” says Brian, “We love educating people about beer and being part of a community. Beer brings people together.”

TECH VETERANS tap into the zeitgeist and serve up innovation at their high-concept Funk Zone brew pub, Validation Ale.

is where the mountains meet the ocean, and a world-class, no-car-required wine tasting experience is just a few steps in almost any direction. Given Santa Barbara’s proximity to the Santa Ynez Valley and the Santa Maria Valley, two of the best wine regions in the US, it’s no wonder that a variety of wineries and tasting rooms now populate hot downtown spots, the perennially poppin’ Funk Zone, and other bustling nearby neighborhoods. And thanks to the Santa Barbara Urban Wine Trail, navigating the wealth of options has never been easier.

WINE TASTING in Santa Barbara dates back to 1962 when Santa Barbara Winery first opened its doors in a warehouse near the city’s oceanfront. In 2005 the Trail began to organically develop around this forerunner, and by 2007 eight of the original downtown wineries joined forces to officially create the Santa Barbara Urban Wine Trail. The goal was to offer everyone from oenophiles on serious tasting missions to novices simply looking for a day of fun the opportunity to learn about and taste the wide range of varietals and styles crafted from the county’s best vineyards.

THE TRAIL is populated with dozens of wineries and tasting rooms sprinkled throughout several districts, each with a distinct personality and vibe: the iconic Funk Zone, the historic Presidio Neighborhood, the Haley Corridor, and to the north in the “Goodland” of Goleta, and to the south in upscale Montecito, and laid-back Summerland Explore the Trail on foot, hop on a shuttle, cruise it by bike, or catch a ride-share.

Along the way, be sure to stop and sample the eclectic assortment of restaurants, breweries, cocktail joints, art galleries, coffee bars, retail shops and even a distillery.

“Beauty is a balance. We want the filler to be undetectable-

After 18 years practicing in New York, California native Dr. Pontius is thrilled to return to the West Coast, bringing her expertise in injectables to Turner Medical Arts.

Bone Score is a new tool that provides physicians with enhanced insight into bone quality and bone density. The procedure, available at Turner Medical Arts and other area clinics, is a quick, radiation-free, in-office measurement involving a small, acupuncture-like tip that passes through the skin to press against the shinbone. A sensor records the softness of the bone and outputs a simple score. To find a doctor or learn more, go to bonescore.com.

Our inventory also includes an excellent lineup of accessories and lifestyle goods like jewelry, messenger bags, knives and of course, our own ShineUP custom-scented candles.

GUEST EDITOR

Meet Guest Editor and ShineUP owner Dina Murillo

Though the inspiration for this clothing and lifestyle boutique came to her on a 2018 Paris trip, she has created a must-shop spot that is quintessential Santa Barbara. Located in an OG—as in one of the few precious pieces of real estate left untouched by developers—building in the Funk Zone and a stone's throw from the ocean, ShineUP is small but mighty, not unlike Dina and her beloved Frenchie sidekick, Mabel. And while ShineUP initially catered to men's fashion, 49.7 percent of the world's population will be thrilled to know that it now has a burgeoning selection of clothing and accessories for women.

The categories that fill the racks and shelves here have several things in common; exceptional quality, feelgood fabrics and reasonable price points. Dina is very judicious when it comes to buying for the store. Because of the limited space, she only carries a few select brands each season, along with year-round staples like felt hats, artisan knives, jewelry, sunglasses and leather goods.

ShineUP has a loyal local following not only because of the great merchandise, the authentic customer service and good vibes inside the store but also because of what happens just outside the doors on Helena Avenue. Since opening in April 2019, Dina has hosted over a dozen street parties—with plans for more—featuring live music from local bands. She's a big believer in building community and having fun! Here she shares a few of her picks for adding a little comfort, polish and sparkle to your wardrobe this season.

KEEPIN' IT LOCAL

> Almost everything in the store is either SB or California-made. We're big on supporting small businesses that make sustainable goods. The LA-made, lightweight eco-Suede Trucker Jacket ticks all of the boxes. It's perfect for layering on chilly mornings and cool evenings, comes in a variety of colors and is a solid addition to any closet.

WARES FOR WOMEN

> Over the past few seasons, I've worked diligently to build our women's clothing and accessories departments. We now carry a range of clothing that can go from comfy at home or cruising around to dressed up for a night on the town. And

I am super excited about some of the local jewelry designers we carry and this great leather bag line—like some of my fave SB wines, they just get better with age and wear.

"I adopted the ShineUP tag line, 'The vibe is real, and the s*#% is cool,' after hearing it over and over from people walking in and checking out the store."

THE ART OF CONSIGNMENT Generations of Style

At high-end consignment showroom, The Art of Consignment, coowners Amy Maloney and Judy Smith have curating resale furniture and decor goods down to a science. The shop, a veritable trove of top-quality, pre-owned furniture and decor items, showcases collections from Henredon, Baker, Palecek and other covetable lines. In 2019 when the mother/daughter duo sold their houses and were in dire need of finding new homes for their personal collections of "lonely furniture", the shop got its start. Since then, the pair have used their collective well-trained eyes and experience in staging and interior design to amass a myriad of pieces from around the world.

The Art of Consignment space, merchandised with inspiring vignettes, makes it easy to imagine how these previously-loved pieces—like the recently acquired McGuire rattan sheaf of wheat dining table—could become the next owner's prized possession. Half of the fun here is the treasure hunt; chances are you will be wellrewarded for the time spent perusing. Don't stop at the storefront; be sure to explore the narrow isles of the petite labyrinth in the back of the store, as it is full of unexpected gems. And if you see something you love (and chances are you will), hop on it because the inventory turns over like hot cakes!

While there are many compelling reasons to shop consignment, sustainability is at the top of that list, especially when fantastic options at affordable prices already exist. Ms. Maloney sees "vintage is an essential part of the circular economy" and takes pride in knowing that the business she and her mother have created is decreasing the consumption of new furniture and, in part, creating more sustainable commerce. Here, everyone wins; the consignor, the proud new owner and the environment. The next time you are in the market for a home update, pop into The Art of Consignment and feather your nest with a fabulous "new-to-you" find.

"Each piece we source is unique. While we look for quality, style and usability, we also search for eye-catching and timeless goods. Our collection is curated for our customers and keeping up with trending styles and indemand merchandise is a vital part of our job. Our favorite pieces are those with stories behind them. We love hearing about the history of pieces, making them all the more one of a kind."

- Co-owner, Amy Maloney

DECOR DETAILS

> It's all in the details and finishing touches. The impressive showroom, filled with wonderful decor items, inspires layering a space with objects that tell a story, add texture or a pop of color. And sometimes treasures like this fabulous ceramic vase tick all of the boxes.

> We're smitten with this paisley slip-covered club chair, and it has a twin if you'd prefer a pair. It's just the right classic red and perfect for sinking in and curling up with your current read and a cup of tea. There are always loads of cozy comfort options in the form of sofas, settees, chairs and upholstered benches.

IN HEAVY ROTATION

> The Art of Consignment's selection of original paintings—including landscapes, still lifes, portraits and abstracts—turns over quickly as it's a go-to for clients, collectors and designers in search of additions to a gallery wall. There's nothing like art to add depth and interest to a homescape.

MID-CENTURY MOMENT

> The inventory includes pieces from a timeline that spans decades, even centuries and a design aesthetic that ranges from mid-century modern—like this gorgeous coffee table—to 1980s

Memphis Design. The criteria for consigning here is simple; if it's a quality item in good condition that has retained its value, it just may end up on the store floor.

HIDDEN HAPPY HOUR

> This 18th century mahogany bar cabinet looks like a sophisticated doll house, but to the delight of adults at cocktail time, behind those darling little doors is a full bar!

DINING DEAL

This like-new swoon-worthy seagrass woven base side chair is part of a perfect set from Restoration Hardware.

HEART OF GOLD

FOR OVER A DECADE NOW

founder of Anna Janelle Jewelry, Anna Janelle Cardenas, has been building her brand and honing her skills as a jeweler and designer. And luckily for those who love to adorn themselves with stylish and affordable pieces, this UCSB graduate and steadfast entrepreneur is growing some deep roots in Santa Barbara. In the fall of 2021, she opened a flagship store in the heart of downtown Paseo Nuevo Mall. This light-filled boutique showcases Cardenas' selection of the 14K yellow gold-filled, semi-precious jewelry that has put her on the map as a collected designer. Alluring gemstones like labradorite, rainbow moonstone and Herkimer diamonds find their way into Cardenas' detailed designs, all meticulously handcrafted in Santa Barbara. A more recent addition to the lineup is a luxury line of 14K solid gold, precious gems and diamond jewelry. And Anna Janelle Jewelry is right on trend when it comes to unique offerings like permanent jewelry—more on that later. The shop also carries an enticingly curated assortment of home decor items, crystal points, pocket stones, jewelry organizers, candles, natural incense and other giftable goods. We recently had the pleasure of speaking with Cardenas in the store. She talked about her expanding brand's origin story, the gems that catch her eye, why materials matter, her love of the local community and more.

ANNA JANELLE JEWELRY

Passion Finds A Permanent Home

I grew up in northern California and moved to Santa Barbara in 2003 to attend UCSB, where I received a communications degree. I fell in love with Santa Barbara and have called it home ever since, save for a two-year stint in Amsterdam, Netherlands, where I started my business while participating in European, outdoor markets. I've been making jewelry for over ten years now, and it is my absolute passion.

Everyday Goals

I love designing truly wearable pieces. We all have a full jewelry box that just sits and collects dust. The goal with my jewelry is to create styles that are simple enough to wear every day but still eye-catching and unique. I create classic pieces that are available year-round and release a few limited edition collections featuring different gemstones every year.

Materials Matter

Quality is everything to me. I have made all my designs with 14 gold-filled metal from the beginning because of its impressive durability and value. Gold-filled doesn't tarnish like gold-plated. It is water resistant, hypoallergenic and lasts for years. I also love finding unique gemstone cuts for my designs. Stone buying is one of my favorite parts of the job. Now that I have a storefront, I've been able to add luxury designs to my collection in solid gold with diamonds and other precious gemstones.

Community + Customer Love

I love the community downtown Santa Barbara has to offer. Between the management at Paseo Nuevo, the vendors at the makers market and neighboring store owners, it has been great to get to know everyone and support each other. I also love getting to know my customers and feel so much more connected to the greater Santa Barbara community now that I have a shop downtown. This town is amazing!

Welded and Wonderful

We are excited to offer Permanent Jewelry (PJ) in Santa Barbara. It's a unique way to wear fine jewelry without a clasp. The chains (most often bracelets) are custom-fitted and micro-welded for a seamless look, and you can add gemstone or diamond charms. Many people get permanent jewelry to pay tribute to meaningful milestones or to honor special bonds with loved ones. Some of our customers drive up from LA and San Diego specifically for our bracelets. We just released new chain options and are now stocking yellow and white gold chains.

CREATiVE t i r

Wallace Piatt, artist and proprietor of RODEO GALLEY, is about as close to a living embodiment of the Funk Zone as someone could get. A creative—check. A studio and business located in the Funk Zone—check. A 40+ year local—check. And he was part of the community long before it got its funky name. Piatt has also lived at least six of his nine lives in the Santa Barbara area; first a kiddo in Santa Ynez, then a UCSB student, a store owner, a way-too-hard party boy, eventually a thriving artist and finally, but surely not lastly, a successful gallery owner.

Rodeo Gallery, which features Piatt's original work, delivers on the industrial vibes with soaring ceilings, concrete floors, and massive wooden easels displaying the compelling, wildly colorful paintings that have come to define his work. Equally as important, the gallery is a space where everyone is welcome to hang out and enjoy the art. It's also connected, via a doorway, to his creative partner, Jill Johnson's shop, Loveworn, where you’ll find Piatt’s original designs silkscreened on tee shirts, hats, hand embellished cashmere sweaters, blazers and more.

Not-so-subtle social commentary is a central theme throughout this hard (as in always) working artist's body of work. Piatt has his pulse on the politics, pop culture and social justice movements of the moment frequently reflected in his pieces, but he’s not beholden to them. His paintings are as intriguing up close as they are from afar. Much like his former life, his art is a process of deconstructing and piecing back together—literally.

"I have felt every step of this artistic journey— from loss and despair to crystal clear clarity, and I want people to feel this as they see my art in my gallery."

Wallace Piatt, Artist and Owner of Rodeo Gallery

Piatt is full of energy and passion with his creative gears generally in overdrive. We recently caught up with him in a rare moment of stillness and discussed the road he traveled to get to his current gallery and head space. Read on to learn about the origin story of Rodeo Gallery, Piatt’s creative process, evolution as an artist and more.

THE ROAD TO RODEO

My whole creative process started with graphics on T-shirts made for the retail store, True Grit, which I opened in 1991 with my creative partner and current Loveworn owner Jill Johnson. I got my first Mac then and was so enamored with design. I didn't start doing art until 2005 or so, silkscreening on plywood, kind of Warhol with an edge. When 2008 rolled around, I lost everything, our business, my car, home and passion for retail and life. Drinking and drugs were a big part of my life, and the ship sank hard, almost 6 feet under, with a heart attack. From 2010 to 2015 I continued to create art with this little piece of hope in my back pocket that "someone upstairs" was watching me. In 2015 I became sober. I had to decide that I'd be either a party boy artist or one that kicked ass with passion. My art changed so drastically. It finally had an authentic voice. Sales went up exponentially, and so did my work ethic, passion and creative ideas. I was on fire! My partner and best friend opened Loveworn clothing, and two years later, the space Rodeo Gallery now occupies became available. The place was a mess, but my landlord and Jill pushed me to open the gallery. And second to getting sober, it was the best decision I've ever made.

FULL TANK

My fuel is sobriety, plain and simple, and I'm a machine now! All I think about is creating, be it designs for our store Loveworn or art. I do not paint for my clients or niche art buyers. I never paint with money on my mind. I create to rid my mind of chaos. My mind whirls with ideas. I collect old books of Native and Indigenous portraits. The lines in the faces tell stories of despair and sometimes triumph, and I use these as inspiration for my art. I start with gluing 12-15 cut pieces of canvas together, wait a couple of days and sew them together. It's a deconstructive then mending process, pretty much like my life. I then create the piece by building color, lots of house paint, spray paint and oil pastel - layers of organized chaos.

LOUD AND CLEAR

My art has a voice. It's not decor art but has a deeper meaning. My graphics, expressed in the bold words above the portraits, are pretty much my trademark. I'll put "B.A.R.R.O.N.'S" (like the money magazine) at the top of a piece and juxtapose it with a Native portrait - greed vs. spirituality in a sense. I'm an ally to the Native and indigenous cultures, and I give a percentage of my earnings to the Waldorf Lakota school on Pine Ridge Reservation in South Dakota. It makes me feel so good to give to a school that teaches the kids the beautiful cultures of dance, language and arts. Tradition is not the enemy of progress!

INFINITE HUSTLE

Sobriety gave me an unlimited amount of ideas and the work ethic to implement those ideas. My art became a true voice, and the portraits became strong with feeling and emotion. I truly believe that losing everything and starting from ground zero made my art what it is—pure hustle with a dream.

ENJOY THE VIEW

I opened Rodeo Gallery with the notion that everyone should enjoy art. Too many galleries have this sterile, boring atmosphere with a snobby "can you afford this art?" scenario. I want people to hang out, be comfortable viewing art, take pictures and be at peace in the gallery without some salesperson sizing up your wallet. I have felt every step of this artistic journey—from loss and despair to crystal clear clarity, and I want people to feel this as they see my art in my gallery.

"I love making this soup for the fall and winter seasons. It's so nourishing, warming and a great thing to have and heat up at any time of day. I developed this recipe years ago by accident on a rainy day when I needed to clean out the fridge. I roasted all the veggies I had on hand and added a few pantry items and viola: my new favorite soup!"

- Chef Ayda Robana

Super Side Kicks: Pair this savory soup with a nice loaf of Charcoal Sesame Sourdough from @oat_bakery, and wash it all down with a Cosmic Crimson Cider from @apiary_.

IN A LARGE STOCKPOT, heat coconut oil, grate and saute garlic, ginger, and turmeric for three minutes. Add all other stock ingredients and bring to a boil.

MY SANTA BARBARA

Get out and about with recent S.B. transplant Randall Parrish. Here this music-lover and local roller (more on that later) shares a few of his favorite area destinations and activities along with a current resident’s recipe for fun in the Santa Barbara sun. Let the good times roll!

FAVORITE OUTDOOR ACTIVITY:

Aerial photography. Because Santa Barbara is so beautiful and picturesque, I picked up a drone, which has really changed my life. I love exploring the city and the natural scenery from a thousand feet up. It’s given me an entirely new perspective on familiar locations and has

MY GO-TO RESTAURANT:

Bettina, in nearby Montecito, makes delicious pizzas with surprising ingredients. When my family was in town for a visit, they loved it so much that we ate there two days in a row! I recommend trying one of their unique pizzas, like the seasonal Regier Peach.

PLACE TO PLAY TOURIST IN MY HOMETOWN:

There’s so much to see on Cabrillo Boulevard—the harbor, the Chromatic Gate, Stearns Wharf and endless ocean views. I recommend that visitors rent e-bikes and ride from Shoreline Park to Montecito and Butterfly Beach. If you want something more relaxing, grab tacos from Los Agaves and drive up to Franceschi Park for sweeping, panoramic views of the city.

> I moved to S.B. from D.C. the week the pandemic lockdowns started.

> I’ve been described as a “Human Glitter Bomb,” which is an apt explanation of my personality.

> I try to infuse my love of music into all the videos I make around town.

PREFERRED PLACE FOR MUSIC AND DANCING:

The silent disco, aka Ecstatic Dance. Every Wednesday on the grass across from Chase Palm Park, we put on headphones and dance to a live D.J. set. It’s incredible! I’m amazed by the wide range of musical styles I hear and appreciate the fun and carefree environment.

This community is like family to me; they’re some of the most friendly, fun and caring folks I’ve ever known. Rollerskating as a hobby is all about grooving to the music and expressing yourself on the dance floor. It’s uplifting for the mind and body and gives you such a sense of freedom. If you
