In Solvang for the holiday festivities and had to stop at @peasantsfeast for a perfect lunch 🍽

#PeasantsFeast #SolvangEats #SantaYnezValley #CentralCoastEats #CaliforniaFood #WineCountryVibes #LeisureLunch #FoodAndTravel #reels

Day 1 in San Diego, by way of the coastal drive down from Los Angeles. An important stop at Heritage BBQ in San Juan Capistrano, check-in at the iconic Hotel del Coronado — dressed for the holidays — and dinner at Callie to close out the evening.

A perfect start to a long weekend in SD ☀️

#SanDiegoTravel #LAtoSD #CoronadoIsland #HotelDel #leonettiliving #WestCoastLiving

Love the all of the Wizard of Oz themed trees at Hotel Del Coronado 🤗 L. Frank Baum stayed at Hotel Del back in the day and is said to have been inspired by the hotel’s beauty and magic ✨ Can you spot the details on the trees? 🌲 #wizardofoz #wicked #coronado #hoteldel

✨ Dinner at Callie in San Diego — a modern Mediterranean restaurant from chef Travis Swikard 🤩

Highlights include: hummus + warm pita, avocado labneh, Aleppo chicken, chilled broccolini, crispy patatas bravas, and pappardelle with a rich sausage ragu.

If you are heading to San Diego put this one on your list 🤗

✨ Slowly but surely making my way through the LA Times 101 Best Restaurant list… #48 ➡️ @heritagebarbecue in San Juan Capistrano 🤗

I really love BBQ so I knew I would be a fan and this place did not disappoint. As expected the brisket is the star - but the sausage link, ribs, and potato salad were also highlights 🤗

🚗 Parking: plenty of options

Status check: Made it three-quarters through the list! Not too shabby - but I’m ready for the new list - and ready to share my top 10 from 2025 with you soon 🤗

Happy Thanksgiving 🦃 A beautiful meal full of laughs, a few tears, plenty of wine 🍷, and both old and new recipes 🍽 after the meal we took a stroll around the hills of Agoura ⛰️

✨ Back to checking restaurants off the LA Times 101 list… #57 ➡️ @malai_noodles in Thai Town 🤗

Mae Malai Thai House of Noodles is an affordable, family-owned restaurant focusing on regional Thai cuisine. A specialty is their original Thai boat noodles 🥵 I’m still recovering from the heat level on a few dishes—but every bite was worth it 🌶️

🚗 Parking: plenty of parking available in the shopping center

Status check: still many places left on the list—but I’m determined to squeeze in a few more before the end of the year 🤗

✨ If Crater Lake isn’t already on your travel list - add it now ⛰️ The brilliant blue water, the hiking, the views — it’s truly one of the most breathtaking places I’ve ever been to.

We visited a few months back and I can’t get it out of my mind.

In my new post on leonettiliving.com 🤓 LINK IN BIO 🤓 I’ve shared a quick guide — including a few other magical Southern Oregon spots to add to your itinerary.

Please read + save it for future trip planning 🙌🏼

@lawinefoodfest was my kind of event 🤩 great food, delicious wine, awesome chefs, and caviar👩🏻‍🍳 Wish I could go back today - but I’ll be ready for next year 🍽️ #losangeles #ilovela #foodlover #foodfest #foodreels

✨ Made it to the very top of the LA Times 101 list… #1 ➡️ Kato in DTLA 🤗

This tasting menu is Taiwanese-inspired and so beautifully done 🙌🏼 The vintage wine pairing was honestly one of the best I’ve had 🍷

🚗 Parking: Just use the big garage next to @rowdtla

Status check: between this meal and a few others on the list… I think I may need to have sandwiches at home for the rest of the year 😂

#kato #foodandwine #dtla #foodreels #latimes101restaurants #reels

✨ Another stop on the LA Times 101 Best Restaurants list… #21 ➡️ Azizam in Silverlake 🤗

I love Persian food so I already knew I’d like this place… but it still blew me away. The flavors, the vibe, the bread(!!) — just perfection 🙌🏼 Already plotting my return so I can order the other half the menu next time.

🚗 Parking: street / meters — so prepare for a short stroll

Status check: the clock is ticking and my wallet is fighting for its life… doubting I can make it through the list before the next one comes out but wow has this journey been WORTH IT 🤩

✨ Still making my way through the LA Times 101 Best Restaurants list and just checked out #7 ➡️ Providence 🤗

🍽️ My first time dining here — and I can absolutely see why they earned three Michelin stars this year ⭐️⭐️⭐️ Pure luxury from start to finish — beautifully prepared dishes, top-notch service, and an exceptional wine pairing 🍷

🚗 Parking situation: valet service — and our car was ready the moment we stepped out of the restaurant 👏 I love a thoughtful detail!

Status check: it may be physically and financially impossible to finish this list by year’s end… but what an adventure it’s been 🤩

Had the pleasure of attending the Travel & Words Conference in Medford, Oregon last week ✨. I connected with 23 incredible PNW destinations and can’t wait to explore them and share their stories with you 🌲✈️.

Highlights? Two amazing winery events (my favorite 😉🍷). At EdenVale, we enjoyed wood-fired pizza 🍕 in a pear orchard, and at Table Rock Vineyard, we savored Oregon salmon 🐟, made s’mores by the fire 🔥, stargazed 🌌, and sipped Rogue Valley wines 🙌🏼.

Huge thanks to Travel Medford and NW Travel & Life for such an inspiring experience! 💫
