TASTES OF THE WORLD

In our effort to take your tastebuds on summer vacation, Shadowbrook invites you to join us any night of the week for our Tastes of the World special menu. Each month we'll feature the cuisine of a different region of the world, bringing you a gourmet 4-course menu for only $45 with an optional 4-course wine pairing for an additional $19 put together by one of the world's few Master Sommeliers.

For June, Shadowbrook's Chef de Cuisine Ashley Hosmer and Master Sommelier Reggie Narito have joined creative forces to offer you the best flavors from

Argentina

See the June Tastes of the World Menu.

We're told that this menu will make some diners want to break into a Tango at their tables. If you've always wanted to dance on the wild side, follow-up your Shadowbrook dinner with a Monday night Tango class at the Palomar Ballroom in downtown Santa Cruz.

Learn more about Tango in Santa Cruz County.

SAVE THE PLANE FARE TO FRANCE: Any night during July, let Shadowbrook take your tastebuds to the unique foods and wines of the Valley of the Rhone River by reserving your table for the Tastes of the World 4-course $45 fixed-price menu.

SHADOWBROOK'S WINNING STAFF

Chef Ashley Hosmer and members of Shadowbrook's award-winning staff won the Gold Award for their participation in the United Way's Workplace Campaign.

In a letter of appreciation and thanks, the United Way recognized the hard work of Shadowbrook staff and their willingness to give back to the community. In this economy, that's really something! "We appreciate the fact that many of the employees in the hospitality industry are reliant on tips and the volume of business to make a living wage -- and we appreciate the challenges your industry has been facing in this County for the past few years."

Congratulations to Shadowbrook's award-winning and community-minded staff!

"NATURE HIKE" SHADOWBROOK STYLE

Father's Day marks the official kick-off of summer-by-the-sea, but it's still springtime on Soquel Creek at Shadowbrook's back door. Take your glass of one of our fine wines and your binoculars for a stroll on our deck and patio. Maybe you'll spot one of the nesting cranes, awakening turtles or jumping fish. This is hiking luxury style!

Forward this idea to a friend for a chance to win a free Shadowbrook T-shirt. Congratulations to Janet Byler who won dinner at Shadowbrook and two tickets to a piano concert at Cabrillo's new performing arts center in last month's contest!
