The day after we attended a wedding in Monterey, our friends from Santa Barbara proposed to meet us halfway in San Luis Obispo. They came up with the wonderful plan to check out Savor the Central Coast, a huge food and wine festival celebrating that region.
The event took place at the 15,000 acre Santa Margarita Ranch. The weather was gorgeous and with a half price Groupon, I felt like it was a great deal even though I and our pregnant friend didn't partake of any of the wine tasting. Just tent after tent of free food! Here's a sampling of what we ate: 
I think the absolute best thing we
had was the maple bacon donut from SLO Donut.
Their donut holes
with whipped cream and fresh berries were yummy as well!
Lamb tagine with loads of local olive oil.
Mozzarella tomato and pesto on focaccia by ByScotti.
Cookies by Brown Butter
Cookie Company.
Whiskey marinated beef from Harris Ranch.
Lamb tacos from Central City Market
Homemade cavatelli with wild boar ragu from Artisan Restaurant
Cured meat from Allesina
Fresh oysters and abalone ceviche
And teeny tiny cones of merlot raspberry truffle ice cream
