Flavors of the Philippines on your table: Filipino restaurant opens in Elk Grove

A new Filipino restaurant in Elk Grove is in the process of ramping up into a full-time operation. Known as the Filipino Table, the restaurant soft-opened in October at 9625 Elk Grove Florin Road near the city’s Old Town district. The eatery serves Filipino street foods, including rice bowls, chicken wings and Panalo plates, a Filipino dish with grilled meat, java rice, and lumpia. The Filipino Table is owned by Lee Ann Torrecarion who also oversees Kuya’s Inasal Express, a pop-up restaurant that operated at 9120 Elk Grove Blvd. The menu is filled with a variety of Filipino dishes, such as its savory selections of Silog, a Filipino breakfast dish with meat, fried egg, garlic fried rice, and a bistek bowl, with Filipino beef, onions, garlic over white rice, its menu on social media reads. The Filipino Table also crafts a hefty Arroz a la Cubana, a fried rice dish with a fried egg, plantains and tomato sauce. For those looking for a stew-like meal with winter approaching, the eatery serves Papaitan, a Filipino soup with meat, ginger, garlic, onions, Thai chili peppers and other animal organs. For those wanting a smaller dish or a snack on the side, The

Candy Buyback Programs in Roseville, Rocklin + Lincoln

Still staring down a pillowcase full of Halloween candy? Your kids can trade some of it in. Every November, local dental offices run Halloween candy buybacks. Kids bring in their extra candy, and the office pays them for it, usually $1 a pound, or swaps it for a small prize or gift card. Most of the candy then gets shipped to U.S. troops in care packages.

Sacramento's tiniest grocery store launches subscription gourmet-snack club

Are you an adventurous snacker? Superette, the petite, lovingly curated gourmet grocery on Riverside Blvd. in Upper Land Park, has just the thing for you. Owner Sophie Mosgrave has just launched Superette Provisions Club, a monthly subscription plan serving a carefully chosen selection of snackables to your hungrily awaiting palate. Superette carries a kaleidoscopic array of delectables, from tinned fish to gourmet cheeses to locally made pickles to high-end artisan chocolates. The Provisions Club will draw from the store’s full product mix. “The idea behind it is just giving people a regular occurrence of things that we love. There will be some exclusives or at least sneak peeks to things that we want to bring in, but wanted to have like an audience first for it. I think it’s a fun opportunity for folks to maybe try things that they wouldn’t have otherwise known to try, or maybe missed in the shop,” she said. For the inaugural collection, Mosgrave is debuting a new product that’s an extension of one of the shop’s core staples, Mama Teav’s Hot Chili Crisp . The new offering is the producer’s Extra Umami Hot Chili Crisp, which dials back some of the spice and pumps

My 5 Favorite Wineries Near Folsom

People ask me all the time where they should go wine tasting. After years exploring, tasting, pouring at winery events (will work for wine), and judging in the Foothill Wine Competition, I’ve narrowed it down to my five favorite wineries near Folsom. Each one does something no other winery around here does quite the same way, and together they cover five different wine regions, all within an easy drive of town. So, what do I look for in a winery? Yes, great wine is a must, but that’s not all. Hospitality, the setting, price, and events all come into play. All of these figured out how to deliver.

Commercial Dungeness crab season delayed in Northern California until 2027

Winter along the California coast means Dungeness crab season. But those who want crab for the holidays might have to catch it themselves. On Oct. 30 , the California Department of Fish and Wildlife announced the beginning of the recreational crab fishing season, and the delay of the commercial season. Certain areas are off-limits to crab fishing, due to high levels of neurotoxin found in the local crabs. Plus, the CDFW has restricted the use of crab traps in Northern California. Here’s what to know: When does recreational crab season begin in California? The recreational Dungeness crab season will open Nov. 7. However, the area between Cape Mendocino and the Ten Mile State Marine Reserve is off-limits to crab fishing. Along that span of coastline, north of Fort Bragg in Mendocino County, Dungeness crab have been found to contain “unhealthy levels of domoic acid.” Domoic acid accumulates in marine creatures from an algae called pseudo-nitzschia. Domoic acid is a neurotoxin that causes short-term memory loss, seizures, and even death in humans. Marine mammals with domoic acid toxicosis often suffer from brain damage and seizures. According to the Marine Mammal Center in Marin County, harmful algae blooms have proliferated along the
