Come Enjoy California With A Coastal Wine Package At Cambria’s Blue Dolphin Inn and the Wine Wrangler!

By Erin

Disclosure: I was invited out to come stay at the Blue Dolphin in and go on a Wine Wrangler experience for purposes of this review. All thoughts and opinions remain my own and I have always had a love for the Central Coast in California! =)

One of my most favorite places to travel to in California is to the Central Coast, and Cambria is one of the things to love about the Central Coast. Cambria, CA is a quaint little beach town along the Central Coast where The Blue Dolphin Inn is located. Cambria is just 28 miles from Paso Robles, one of California’s most popular wine regions with more than 250 bonded wineries. The Blue Dolphin Inn has partnered up with The Wine Wrangler and is now offering a new “Coastal Wine Package” for those who want to enjoy crush season and some much needed coastal R&R!

The perfect travel destination for a romantic weekend with someone special, a girls getaway weekend, or a fabulous stopover point on a drive up or down the California coast, the Blue Dolphin Inn features the most luxurious accommodations that you will find on Moonstone Beach.

Wordless Wednesday: Cambria’s Scarecrow Festival!

Wordless Wednesday: Cambria’s Scarecrow Festival!

By: Erin

I recently went on a trip to Cambria (another post to follow on the amazing Blue Dolphin Inn and The Wine Wrangler) and we were greeted by many friendly folks along the side of the road upon our arrival. We soon realized that these friendly creations were scarecrows and that the scarecrow festival was going on right now in Cambria until October 31st!

The first Cambria Scarecrow Festival was back in 2009, starting out with only 30 scarecrows. Now in 2013, over 400 scarecrows line Cambria’s business district. Cambria is a perfect year-round escape, with October being one of the best times of all to visit. The warm October sun brightens the quaint seaside village. Hundreds of unique scarecrows are displayed throughout Cambria’s East and West Villages and along Moonstone Beach Drive.

Here from October 1-31, the Cambria Scarecrow Festival will wow and amaze you while on your next visit. While here, also be sure to check out the cute boutiques, tasty restaurants, and don’t forget about the wine and beer tasting too. 😉 Take a stroll on the magical beaches or hike the many trails that wind their way from the beaches into the pines. You will soon see why I love the Central Coast so much with a visit here!

Enjoy!

Cambria!

Happy 1st Anniversary Dominique’s Kitchen! Special Escargots Menu to Celebrate!

Happy 1st Anniversary Dominique’s Kitchen! Special Escargots Menu to Celebrate From 10/18-10/21!

By Erin

Earlier this year I was introduced to this wonderful place called Dominique’s Kitchen. You can see more about my first experience at Dominique’s by clicking here. This week I was invited out to sample their special anniversary menu.

Now they are celebrating their 1 year anniversary here in the South Bay, in Redondo Beach, CA. To celebrate this most grand occasion they are offering a very special menu from 10/18-21 where three to four different escargot items will be on special from the list below each day. At Dominique’s making good food is an everyday occasion.

All of the items on this special menu were very tasty I must say! I could not pick a favorite as they were all so different, and had different flavors and textures to love about them! If you have ever had the chance to try escargots before, this is definitely your place to try them out at as they are delicious! I was as skeptical about trying them as the next person may be who has never had them before, but boy am I glad I have an open mind when it comes to trying out new foods. I really enjoy having escargots now! =)

I hope you get the chance if you are in Southern California to come and try out some of these special items, or that you will come and try what they have to offer the next time you are in the South Bay!
