I’m glad they’re putting the Diablo Nuclear Power Plant land to good use. With enough tax dollars invested in a clean tech innovation park, maybe someone will think of a way to generate electricity without emitting carbon. ?
The name Rodeo doesn't do much for me but I'm so glad something has gone in here. It's been dead for years.
Word on the street is Fairview Gardens is shutting down at the end of the month. I’m told that employees were given very little notice and are still in shock. It’s my understanding that the property can only be used for non-profit purposes. Sounds like the new owners wants to shut down for the near year to work on infrastructure. Can you please confirm?
I benefit reading your comments on various properties and pricing. I’d love for you to analyze my home which I am preparing to sell or lease. http://calleelegante93108.us/ It seems pricing is based on visuals and staging rather than structural integrity. I’m starting the process to sell or lease paying close attention to local real estate. In my 42 years here I’ve observed buyers customize homes to their liking replacing most everything from kitchens, baths, flooring, paint and landscaping. My contemporary home and furniture were all white, gray and black until a 2010-12 facelift when I added color. Now the trend is back to white, gray, and black. Both looks dramatically different. . What’s constant for me is I like my guests outside of the kitchen enjoying views, social spaces, and gardens. Im not a great room fan.
Wow! I am sorry for thinking you were interrested in worrying about any other person.
Hard to tell as there may be multiple signs like this, but I think this is on De La Vina Street near the back driveway to Ralphs.
Rumor is that the group that owns teddys in carpinteria and omni catering is interested and is in talks with owners of the palms.
The addition of UCLA medical to town has been fantastic for me. They have excellent doctors and it’s a priceless opportunity to get connected into the larger UCLA network for those of us with complex medical needs. It’s also been great to have much shorter wait times to see physicians than is typically experienced throughout the rest of town where it is fast becoming nearly impossible to be seen for any condition in a reasonable amount of time, or to become a patient if you are not already established as one. This is one circumstance in which I happily welcome our new overlords from LA!
Hi. I am part owner of Salty. It is not closed. It is in escrow and even when the new owner takes over it will remain salty for a while, until downstairs is complete. Can you please change your header from saying closed so that people will still come down and eat and enjoy the view.
I second the vote for Mony’s. They get the crispy-around-the-edges-cheese and delicious mix of onions and peppers to perfection!
RE: De la Guerra Plaza - In this climate grass is maybe not a great idea, but doesn't this rendering look a little . . . stark? bleak? lifeless?

La Superica’s Rajas.
Miss little A’s big time. Rajas at la super rica are delicious
When will Gaviota Pier be fixed? Its an important resource for the 805 as a recreational tool and as a boat launch. Lets go Gaven!
I just love the Dutch Garden diorama!
RAJAS are best served at El Sitio?
Raja tacos from mony's are the real deal.
Thanks for finding out the hotel situation Erik! Can't wait to see what they do with it.
I was wondering the same thing with the sign! I wonder if it can find a good home in a nearby restaurant.. kinda like the Jolly Tiger sign in Cafe Roy.
Burkdoll sells a variety of jams. "Hot Katy" cherry rosemary jam is my favorite. It's sweet, spicy and the rosemary makes it savory (makes a great duck or salmon glaze). Man-o-man it's the jam! Tana is the nice lady usually at the market giving free samples (and pictured on the jam label) and the one who makes it. Cherry season has just begun, so expect to see it soon! Can't wait!
An Axe Throwing Club? What could possibly go wrong.
No, it’s NOT a good thing. We are a community of neighbors not neighborhoods of time shares. We need communities with voters who actually live here full time. Whether it’s a time share or someone who has homes in Aspen, Telluride, New York, London AND Santa Barbara, you may love spending a few weeks here each year,but you are unintentionally destroying our town. We need affordable housing for teachers, firemen, doctors, etc etc…
