Bella, better and better
It's been nearly two years since Escape last visited Bella Cucina and, in that time, there have been a few changes. Most notably, the large outdoor patio is now shaded and has plastic roll-down windows to block the breeze, yet still allow the beautiful view to be seen. It's the perfect place for a summer sundown dinner or a large party. The patio also has cooling fans, a television and when, things are busy, its own bar.

Russ Briley Wine-ing

St. Francis Dam tour Sunday
On Sunday, March 11, the Santa Clarita Valley Historical Society will host a tour of the site of the St. Francis Dam disaster in San Francisquito Canyon. The dam break is the second-worst natural disaster in the state of California: The failure of the St. Francis Dam, on March 12, 1928, killed more than 450 people, leveled farms and homesteads, destroyed property and livestock, and changed the way dam safety was addressed forever.
Two women on wine: A time and place for sweet wines
This is Part I of a two-part series. Contrary to popular belief, sweet wines are not just for the novice drinker. As with most things in life, there is a time and a place for everything. This is an accurate statement when you think of wine, because it is the only beverage that is made in a specific place and at a specific time. As part of the wine genre, sweet wines certainly have their ...
Cathy’s food, family, faith
You come in for the delicious and well-priced food, of course. But you also come in to see your "family." And beyond that, you can take away a little daily inspiration when you need it. The food and the family are a combination that has made Cathy's Delicatessen Restaurant in Newhall a tradition for 12 years (and, actually, long before that, when Cathy's was Danny's). And the spiritual uplift is an additional benefit offered since ...

Taste the love at Sam’s
Sam's Flaming Grill is becoming a bit of a phenomenon in the Santa Clarita Valley, with the fourth local Sam's opening in Newhall this past August, following closely on the heels of the third location, in Valencia, which opened last May. (The other two locations are in Canyon Country and Saugus, opening in 2003 and 2008, respectively.)
Is Tiffany Michelle ‘Worst Cook’?
