What’s a girl to do after a day of fabulous wine tasting? Obviously start with a beer from Paso Roble’s Firestone Walker Brewing Company. When in Rome…. If you’re curious about Paso Robles Wine, read about my Top 10 Paso Robles Wine list here.

Besides the amazing food at Artisan, one of the things I loved is how they showcase their local Farmers & Purveyors. Being in California we are so spoiled by the amazing local produce year round restaurant’s are able to share with their guests.

 The French Onion Soup, Kale Caesar Salad and Meatballs with Gnocchi.

I loved how light the French Onion Soup. It was rich yet did not make me feel too heavy or full. For any French Onion Soup fans (like me) I recommend trying this!

The amazing Kale Caesar Salad. The light bread crumbs and cheese on this were incredible.  Another dish we loved and I would order again next time I dine at Artisan.

Mussels in a yummy White Wine Sauce.  This broth was unbelievable, so delicious I could have eaten an entire loaf of french bread dipping it in the broth.

The Beef Short Rib I enjoyed as my entree. This was yet another amazing dish. I loved the beef sauce as well as the rich mashed potatoes and fresh vegetables served with the dish. It was large enough you could possibly share one if you want to save room to try some of the fabulous appetizers.

The Butterscotch Caramel with Sea Salt & Gingersnaps Cookies. Although I was so full from the meal I was only going to taste this dessert. After a spoonful I could not stop eating it.
