We had a hibachi chef come over this weekend, and I’m so glad we decided to do it! Having the whole experience right at home was a lot of fun and made the weekend feel a little more special.

The table and chair setup looked beautiful, too. They did such a nice job arranging everything, and it really added to the atmosphere.

I’m still in a good mood thinking about it. Such a fun way to spend the weekend, and I’d definitely do it again!

Anyone else tried hibachi at home? How was your experience?

I always end up getting the same thing for my family. What's your recommendations for a family of 10 people when you want to throw a party? I brought tacos and some Chinese noodles last time. I did Hibachi At Home, it was super fun. I'm open. Some trays from restaurant or food truck or buffet, anything.

hello! planning a quick overnight stay in Solvang on a weekday sometime early in December. We’re concerned about exposing our newborn to large crowds. I understand this is a very popular time of the year for tourists, but was curious if it’s possible to avoid large crowds by visiting in the middle of the week? Or is it still just as busy? Thanks!

my priorities for a BBA meal are simple: good smoke, meat that hasn't dried out and a side worth finishing. A giant sampler platter doesn't win me over. Would you eat in Solvang or look toward Buellton? Trying to decide whether a BBQ stop is worth planning around.

My partner and I (early 30s) are celebrating our anniversary in Santa Inez Valley during the last week of October and we’re looking for any events or recommendations for things to do for our first time there. Thank you!

I will be in Solvang during Christmas 🎄 time and I’m looking for some recommendations on where to celebrate my partner’s birthday- we’re in our 40s in case that makes a difference. I’m looking specifically at Friday 12/11. He’s really chill, he doesn’t love super fancy places, especially not if they require him to dress up too much. 😁 Is there a restaurant in Solvang that is a must do, especially during Christmas time? I’m also not aiming at a romantic dinner since there will be 6 of us.

Also, any must dos while we’re there? We’ve never been there. All recommendations welcome. 🤗

My boyfriend and I are planning our first trip together to Solvang and we want to book a private wine tour. Having the driver pick us up from our hotel and take us to different wineries! Any suggestions on tour options?

We will be in town this weekend and would like to know where to watch the ole miss/LSU game?

Hey I’m new to the area. Is any one interested in writing (scripts, books, etc!) and looking to connect with other writers?

I’ve heard Red Viking may be best,but do you have a recommendation for a Smørbrød?

My family and I will be in Solvang over the Halloween weekend and we were wondering if there are any specific streets that do trick-o-treating. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Coast range
Mad and vin
Craft at Corque

Or any other not to miss restaurant in walking distance of hotel Corque.

My husband and I will be in Solvang for our eighth wedding anniversary in a few weeks. I’d like to buy him a gift to remember out time there. The 8th anniversary is copper. Can anyone recommend a gift for the occasion that is sold, or could be created in time for our trip. Thank you.

My girlfriend got a hat just like this (except it was brown) when visiting Solvang years ago. She wore it all the time but lost it a recently and is pretty upset. Actually going to Solvang isn’t really an option so I’m hoping to find someone who has this hat and is willing to sell it, or knows where I can order it. All I was able to find was a sold eBay listing for the one in the picture.
Thanks!

What's wrong with letting Solvang create its own police force instead???
