This beautiful public garden sits in the Santa Ynez mountains above the Santa Barbara Mission. A tour of the grounds includes the dam and irrigation system that was built in the early 1800's to support the mission.

La SuperRica Tacqueria, Santa Barbara, CA
La SuperRica is an outstanding taco shack at the corner of Milpas and Alphonse in downtown Santa Barbara. You'll know this small place by the El Camino Real bell standing out front and the long line out the door. As you wait in the line and get closer to the counter the smell of fresh cooked tortillas, grilled meat and chiles begins to waft toward you. Sure, it's a long wait but you don't see many people complaining once they have their plate in front of them!

The entire villa is designed around fountains, gardens and art and was recently reopened to the public.
