"Every weekend thousands of Southern Californians make the trek up the 101 and through the Central Coast — and quite a few even stop for a night (or a long weekend) at the quaint Danish tourist town Solvang. From Sideways jokes to new restaurants run by familiar LA faces to an absolutely massive weekend brunch culture, there’s something for just about everyone. Lately, the scene has even grown to include Peasant’s Deli, an offshoot of the popular Peasant’s Feast restaurant that is meant to be more of a takeaway of sorts, a place to stop in for a sandwich, a splash of wine, and to pick up some tinned fish and bread to take to a nearby winery or park. While the menu of sandwiches offers staples like a cold cut combo, it’s the entirely meatless mushroom option with smoked provolone, peppers, onions, and an artichoke spread that steals the show. Oh, and the place also offers caviar bumps and cones of shaved jamon Iberico for folks needing to step things up a notch, and they’re even working on an arcade space next door. —Farley Elliott" - Eater Staff
