Not only is OSPI at the POST expensive, it's not very good. Chicken parm not edible. Spicy rigatoni much too spicy. Generic spaghetti with orange sauce, yuck. I guess they will make money on their booze.
I’m intrigued by the tortoises would like to meet them place sounds cool
I live in Marin and recommend a Marin GOOT. Happy to give suggestions. And also North Beach in SF is an interesting and often overlooked neighborhood esp for more interesting shopping.
I agree! Feels like we keep getting the same genre of restaurants (expensive also) opening up in Montecito and I would love to have a linden square/public market kind of casual dining with different cuisines open up in that part of town.
Fermented sourdough bread - yummy. Nice upscale picnic vibe. Chicken meal looks delish. Can't wait.
I love Ojai Rotie! Lucky Carpinteria!!!
I continue to be wowed by the evolution of Carp! I only wish we had something like Linden Square in Montecito/Summerland/Bird Refuge (Post) instead of the Rodeo-Drive-like offerings that we now have in Montecito and "Baja" Montecito.
Spot on, Brad. Unfortunately, in SB, all the blue-striped toothpaste is out of the tube...
i was excited about mothers but when i went in, the taco (carne asada) had zero flavor. Really disappointed. Had high expectations
Love the history of this ranch.! Thanks for sharing.
oh great! carp will love it! great addition!! cozy vibes!

Affordable units? Land is expensive, construction is expensive,…. How do we burden a private party trying to provide housing with a mandated loss to address an issue they did not create? This will result is less housing and higher prices …. Do the leaders wanting these policies ever look this reality or just roll with the emotional ideas that sound so good and don’t work?

“Yes, Lee Radziwill had a connection to the Santa Ynez Valley in California.
She and her husband, director Herbert Ross, owned a 400-acre ranch in the Santa Ynez Valley, which they sold to actor James Garner and his wife Lois in 1991. The property, which featured a 23-acre Chardonnay vineyard, was later known as Savanna Ranch” . So this property is also the entrance to Demetria Winery- on it’s southern flank - the property has it’s own entrance but we all used the Demetria entrance as it was first on the road.
The ranch is spectacular- the shooting range is used by the Sheriff Dept - hope the new owners continue that relationship.
I’ve cooked hundreds of meals here- and have seen fireworks above the pond put on by the same company who does them for major celebrations around the Country- in fact the day the Zaca Fire started, the ranch was allowed to carry on with their planned fireworks because they were being shot over the pond. Second wife used to hold Sunday Salons with the best speakers! The chef at the ranch - Stephanie Valentine, was the best chef in the Valley for years- the wedding to wife #3 was held in the equestrian barn- made over by Mindy Rice into a super club from NYC - what a 3 day event that was. My best memory is meeting and helping NYC Socialite Nina Griscom (Food Network alumni) settle in for the week. Martha Stewart! Ed Holmes renting out to be married there!
Yes!
Incredible! I lived in Ojai for many glorious years and raised two amazing daughters there.
Love it. Thank you
I agree 110% . Kindness, please. Siteline is a treasure.
Ojai Rotie is ELITE!! This will be an amazing addition.
By the time the SB Biltmore opens, it would have been closed for a decade. Hard to believe this was permitted by the County, let alone the indicator about TW's mental health.
Also agree. Siteline without the meanness!
Agreed. We have Nextdoor and Edhat for that crap, let's keep Siteline sane and civil.
100% We love Siteline!
I'm noticing that lately there has been a change in tone to the comments skewing nastier and negative here on Siteline. For me, that tone is completely against why most of us are here. This is a fun, smart, and hyperlocal site that is very much appreciated.
You what would be perfect for the sterile new library plaza? A public ping pong table!
