Authentic California Is Found Halfway Between San Francisco And Los Angeles At The Historic Paso Robles Inn, Where Famous Mineral Waters Soothe Travelers
August 8, 2012Visitors traveling California’s highways have the perfect respite and reason to exit Highway 101 in the historic town of Paso Robles. Here, the Paso Robles Inn, the grand dame of the charming town in the heart of the area’s glorious wine country, has cared for travelers for more than a century. Its “halfway” location is the perfect place to slow down, stretch legs and stroll the town, sampling local flavors, sipping the region’s best wines, and soak in healing waters. A new one night package ties it all together for aTaste Around.
The Taste Around package features local walk-to tasting rooms to capitalize on a food trend with benefits, pointing visitors toward two of the town’s local purveyors in the City Park Square, adjacent to the Inn, for sampling local olive oil and cheese. Guests leave with travel-size gifts from the shop owners. Pasolivo Olive Oil has been named “our favorite” by Bon Appétit magazine. Olives are grown organically, hand-picked and pressed steps from the field. Vivant Fine Cheese carries more than 150 kinds of cheese in the Central Coast’s premier cheese tasting room, featuring premium, local and imported, handcrafted artisan cheeses paired with the finest Central Coast wine and beer.
