In the pursuit of wellness and longevity, we’re all seeking an edge—a practice, product or diet that promises us vitality far into our golden years. In the interest of your continuing health, we at Sacramento magazine investigated some topics that wouldn’t even have been debated a century ago—trans fats, prebiotics and probiotics, alkaline diets and more—so you can make well-informed nutrition choices for your busy modern life. May your shopping cart be overflowing with foods that make you look and feel radiant.
2006 Subscribers’ Choice Awards
With ever more restaurants to choose from in the Sacramento region, subscribers faced quite an undertaking when they responded to our survey: What restaurants really stand out as best in the region? Our subscribers rose to the occasion, though, and took full advantage of their privilege to vote. We received more responses than ever this year. Here are the winners, along with some picks from Sacramento magazine editors.
On the Waterfront
Sacramento’s riverside restaurants are the perfect place to welcome the summer.
Sacramento lies at the confluence of two rivers, the Sacramento and the American, and is bordered to the south by the San Joaquin-Sacramento River Delta. Committed water lovers, we relish these beautiful waterways for the splashing, fishing, canoeing, floating and skiing opportunities they provide. And after a day of river play, there’s nothing better than a restaurant meal with gorgeous watery views. Our region is home to a number of river dining establishments—some casual, some snazzy, some accessible by boat. We recently sampled a handful of them to find out what local water enthusiasts will be eating this summer.
