Bonnie's Kitchen @ Tejon Ranch

Meet Bonnie Marie, she is due very soon. The other guy is Phil Benadum, Executive Director of the Pacific Coast Cutting Horse Association. Both are great people who really know how to please. Today I am going to talk about Bonnie, she not only caters the cuttings but has her own Supper Club in Santa Margarita. Check out her Facebook page: Bonnie's Kitchen.

This is Bonnie's crew, that includes her Mother-in-law.

She hosted a Taco Night at one of the nights during our horse show. Easy, quick and simple. Just one of the perks of having bonnie on the job, she know how to get people fed.

My creation! Nachos!

I have known Bonnie for quite some time, she was friends with my cousins growing up. She does catering events in the 805 and beyond. Don't be afraid to look her up!

The Range - Santa Margarita, Ca

The Mid State Fair brought us to town and I was showing, once again. Hungry after riding all day, we headed north to Santa Margarita (population 2,333) just off the 101 freeway only eight miles north of San Luis Obispo.

Great red wine! Au Bon Climat is my new favorite! ABC SB Pinot is simply delicious. There is nothing pretentious here, just well balanced, nicely textured, brightly fruity wine that seems to go with everything.

The crawfish cake -- make that cakes, two of them, plump and full of that crawdad flavor -- are served with vinegary crisp, pickled okra and a punchy, orange Tabasco sauce.

I ordered the San Dabs and they were awesome! Lightly fried, with a a nice creamy sauce that wasn't too heavy. Nothing revelatory, just plain good, especially with a big heap of those fine mashed potatoes.

Plan this one right into your Google map. The outside patio was beautiful and the weather was great! Prepare yourself before your visit, they are cash only and a tad pricey. 1.75 thumbs up for a wonderful experience.
