ALT For our cover feature, we head to the fields of Endwell Hospitality’s Rincon Hill Farm in Carpinteria to see how a sustainable, ground-up approach defines the vibrant menu at Montecito’s soon-to-be-opened Monte’s restaurant. We also catch up with three established local chefs who have launched exciting new dining spots, and tap into local food-and-wine pros who suggest some 805-area reds that deserve a quick chill before they hit the glass. Along with our “Dining Out” column and the ever-evolving “Where to Eat Now” guide to keep you on top of the local restaurant scene, we go beyond the plate to explore the latest in style, travel, home decor, arts and culture, and more. Enjoy the issue! www.805living.com On the Cover: Watermelon radish, carrot, and pickled onion brighten a bowl of gem lettuce from Carpinteria’s Rincon Hill Farm. Photograph by Jen Huang Bogan
