I recently visited Paso Robles, California for wine tasting, food shopping, and just relaxing with my husband.
First we went to the beautiful Tablas Creek Vineyard for wine tasting and picnic. The ground was gorgeous, wine tasted divine, and staff was very kind and helpful. We really enjoyed our stay there.

We then went to downtown and visited LXV Wine for a unique wine tasting and flavoring pairing experience.

The best dinner we had in Paso Robles was at Les Petites Canailles, a new and popular French restaurant. They had an excellent selection of local wines, and the food was so good! Steak Tartare was to die for 🙂

On the next day, we went to Tin City, an area where many boutique wineries, tasting rooms, and gourmet food stores gather.
We went to Giornata and had an amazing experience there. They specialize Italian wine made in California.

The same owner took us to Etto, a local pasta and Italian grocery store. I was quite impressed with the quality of food and selection of local and imported Italian foods!

I brought home the fresh bucatini from Etto and cooked a lovely dinner at home 🙂

Overall, we had a fantastic time in Paso Robles. We’ll be back!
