In the final episode of the Sausalito Series on The Bay Insider, Amanda and Ying sit down with longtime resident and fifth-generation Californian, Chris Ornellas, to talk about what makes Sausalito such a layered, memorable place to live.
From its roots as a Coast Miwok settlement to its Prohibition-era days as a rum-runner hideout, to the anchor out community, Sausalito has always been a little offbeat in the best way. They explore iconic neighborhoods like the sunny Banana Belt and windy Hurricane Gulch, the town’s artistic and maritime culture, and what it’s like to live just north of the Golden Gate Bridge in one of Marin County’s most scenic towns.
Chris shares local favorites like the chicken sandwich at The Joinery and pizza at Sandrino, plus insight into community events like the Sausalito Lighted Boat Parade and the Farmers Market at Dunphy Park. They also talk about the impact of Sea Trek and the Matthew Turner tall ship in keeping Sausalito’s boating culture alive.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
