FOSO opens at Sensorio ✨

On Friday, April 11 Sensorio will debut their newest installment, FOSO, or Fiber Optic Symphonic Orchestra. The installation features 32 individual light responsive columns designed to “play” to the score of the music.

Designed by renowned artist Bruce Munro (the creative mind behind exhibits Field of Light, Gone Fishing, Fireflies, and Light Columns), the installation blends the sounds of an orchestra with a dynamic light display, with each note represented by a specific color.

Munro collaborated with Emmy award-winning composer Nainita Desai to produce the exclusive score for the exhibit, which highlights each individual member of the orchestra as they would perform. This unique intersection of light and sound allows visitors to enjoy an immersive experience as you can truly visualize the music while journeying through the lights.

Date night done right at The Oak Grill 🌿

Whether you’re staying at Hotel Cerro, just passing through SLO, or a local looking for a new spot for an incredible meal, The Oak Grill should be on your list.

Located within Hotel Cerro in Downtown SLO, The Oak Grill offers a dining experience that celebrates the local agricultural bounty and culinary artistry of the Central Coast, with a global influence of flavors and cuisines that craft their menu.

This could not be more evident than in their dinner menu, which features the vibrant flavors of the Philippines through their Lumpia appetizer, a Portuguese-inspired Seared Scallop Calderiada, and Roasted Shishito Peppers that bring a taste of Japan. But if you’re looking for an elevated taste of California, you’ll find that too with options including West Coast Oysters and Tri Tip Steak Frites, among many others.

We were invited to dinner at The Oak Grill recently, and had an incredible experience. The restaurant is beautiful and modern, the staff was knowledgeable and friendly, and the food and drinks were excellent. We enjoyed ourselves thoroughly, and will absolutely be back again.

🍽️ What We Tried 🍽️

Lumpia
Roasted Shishito Peppers
Crab Cake

Seared Scallop Calderiada
Tri Tip Steak Frites
Cheese Pizza

Creme Brulee
Lemon Tart

There are only a few days left until Esprit du Vin!

Every year the Wineries of 46 East gather under one roof for a night of wine, delicious food, and live music in celebration of their annual Esprit du Vin, or the “Spirit of Wine”. As a wine lover, it is an incredible event offering the opportunity to enjoy the wines you may know, and discover new favorites from the entire collective that makes up the Wineries of 46 East.

We have attended the event the past few years, and always have a great time. Not only do we enjoy sipping our way through the wines (and the food really is delicious), it’s wonderful to meet the real people behind the wineries and see why they’re excited about their wines. We’ll be back again this year, and hope to see you there!

🍷 2025 ESPRIT DU VIN 🍷

Saturday, February 1
6:00 p.m. - 8:30 p.m.

Riboli Family Event Center
2017 Wisteria Lane, Paso Robles, CA 93446

🧐 Looking for more information about the event? Make sure to check @wineriesof46east , and use the link in their bio to get your tickets
