Redding taqueria a standout with mesquite-grilled meat
A new Mexican spot will open in town, and the conversation that follows invariably goes like this: Does Redding really need another Mexican restaurant? The owners of the new Tacos Las Espadas downtown know the refrain and say the answer is yes. They’ve set out to bring something fresh and unique for their customers. “We try to be a little bit different,” says grill master Tako Sierra, who along with his younger brother, Martin Jr., and their parents, Martin and Angelina Sierra, operate the Tacos Las Espadas taqueria. “We have different things than what everybody else has, like the sword (Espada Quesadilla) and Quesabirria Pizza,” Tako said. “We would like to say we’re very authentic.” The family formerly ran Pasta Pronto at their 2151 S. Market St. location near Jiffy Lube and in December made the switch from Italian to Mexican food. Pasta Pronto’s history dates back some 30 years when it was in the FoodMaxx shopping center. Before that, you could find it at Hilltop Landing on Hilltop Drive. Now, the Mexican eatery offers creative menu choices such as the swordlike Espada Quesadilla, which refers to the restaurant’s namesake. “That’s where our name came from because down in Mexico

Redding area students cook up success at busy bistro
First-time diners at this eatery tucked away on the Shasta College campus might be surprised. Customers can order a three-course lunch — complete with an appetizer, soup or salad and an entree. Deserts are offered too. All are made-from-scratch by students in the college's culinary program. When it's open for lunch — only on Wednesday and Thursdays — expect to find faculty and students alike picking up orders to go or asking for table seats in the sunny, 50-seat bistro that serves as both an upscale eatery and culinary classroom. One recent week, the Bistro's lunch specials included grilled flank steak sliced and served on a bed of cooked succotash of diced potatoes, onions, corn kernels and green peppers. The dish was drizzled with a flavorful chimichurri sauce blended fresh from parsley, cilantro, garlic, olive oil, salt, pepper and chili flakes. That's what busy Shasta College student and mom Tara Petitclerc dined on recently, as a treat to herself. "Everything here is delicious," said Petitclerc, who described the steak as "super herbaceous and super garlicky." The social work student said she'd definitely be back, drawn by both the food and the homemade lemonade that she described as "a perfect balance

Final Draft eyes second location. Buffalo Wild Wings opening soon
Adam Ward of Final Draft Brewing sees opportunity in Palo Cedro. That’s why Ward picked the Palo Cedro Shopping Center on Deschutes Road to open a second Final Draft location. I spoke briefly to Ward recently while he was at the shopping center visiting his new location. His goal is to open in late summer or early fall. Final Draft will be in the former Norm’s spot, the restaurant that closed last year. It will mark the return of a local brewery to the shopping center. California Brewing operated there for two years before it closed in 2016. Final Draft was established nearly 10 years ago on California Street in downtown Redding, where it also has a restaurant with indoor and outdoor seating. The business has built a loyal following and that Ward wants to bring to Palo Cedro. “We want to bring more traffic to downtown Palo Cedro,” Ward said. While they won’t brew beer in Palo Cedro, Ward said the tap room will offer the same menu and beers on tap that are featured at Final Draft’s downtown location. Ironically, Redding commercial real estate broker Ken Miller, who brokered the lease for Final Draft in Palo Cedro, also

Redding chef brings unique naan pizza twist to Farmers Market
Pizza made on a naan loaf? Chef, caterer, food entrepreneur and self-proclaimed "extrovert" Josh Sorar doesn't see why not. Every Saturday morning, the owner of Semper Fi Cater steps behind his two portable pizza ovens and gets to work at the Redding Farmers Market , making his signature pizzas with a different twist. First off, Sorar layers ingredients on made-from-scratch naan bread, which he described as being "a little lighter, crispier and sweeter" than traditional pizza dough. Specials vary by the week. One recent Saturday, Sorar prepared customized naan pizzas with a base layer of béchamel sauce, a creamy white sauce made of milk, butter and flour. Toppings on that pizza included fontina, smoked and provolone cheeses, along with sausage, artichokes, fresh spinach and homemade lemon ricotta. Then, there's the breakfast pizza: a bit out of the ordinary, but made to indulge early-bird customers at the farmers market, which opens at 7:30 a.m. in the spring and summertime. That pizza also starts off with naan topped with béchamel sauce before mozzarella cheese, cooked egg and a choice of two toppings are added. Selections that day included pepperoni, bacon, sausage, jalapeño peppers, onions, roasted garlic, black olives, mushrooms and green bell
