Steve Hauk
A Literary Man
Pacific Grove has long been known to attract creative types of every genre. Discover Pacific Grove readers have been lucky enough to learn about some of these interesting individuals through the writing of local art connoisseur and writer, Steve Hauk. In this issue, you can learn a little about him. Steve Hauk is best known around town as the co-owner of Hauk Fine Arts, a gallery specializing in early and contemporary California art. He and his wife Nancy opened the Gallery twenty-five years ago and have since built a formidable reputation for their rare and unique finds. Yet, this is just a glimpse of the man behind the paintings. Hauk writes plays and documentary films, co-curated the National Steinbeck Center’s inaugural art exhibit, writes for the Steinbeck Review and is working on a series of Steinbeck stories called ``Almost True Stories from a Writer’s Life. Originally from St. Louis, Hauk came to the Peninsula as a journalist for a job at the Monterey Herald. “My wife, Nancy, is an artist and an art history major, so we had her considerable knowledge and talent opening the gallery,” confirms Hauk. When asked what he found most unique about his gallery, he replied, “Somehow we get work that ties in with, or is by, great writers, Steinbeck, Ken Kesey, William Saroyan, Belle Yang and Bob Kaufman among them. When discussing what he might call his more important literary achievements he notes the film ``The Roots of California Photography’’ is still telecast on PBS. That the plays ``A Mild Concussion,’’ suggested by the life of Gary Kildall, and ``The Floating Hat,’’ on the deaf artist Granville Redmond, have been taken into the collections of the Computer History Museum and Gallaudet University, respectively. And there are plans to make a film based on his play on Early California Impressionist Effie Fortune by Mac and Ava Motion Pictures. Hauk’s ability to offer a glimpse of history while drawing these individuals out from the shadows is a gift. A gift for which we are most grateful. Discover Pacific Grove 13

Shhhh.... Dining Secrets
1. Looking for someplace to grab a bite to eat after 9pm in Pacific Grove? The International Cuisine Restaurant is still hopping well into the night. They also have a full bar. 2. The Beach House at Lovers Point is now able to host your afternoon events and private parties on their patio overlooking Lovers Point beach. Book early.
3. Joe Rombi sold la mia cucina to his good friends and Monterey natives, Michael and Paula Scanlon. Michael makes a magnificent lobster ravioli! But, don’t worry. Joe is still next door, at la piccola casa, cooking up a storm with his new menu. 4. Cafe Ariana serves a decadent ice cream sandwich called a Gelato Panini, filled with your favorite flavor gelato and toppings.
5. Passionfish restaurant holds the title of 1st Green Restaurant in Monterey County and, after 17 years, continues to prove its cool to be green.

Emi Makes Nonna Proud Emi, as her nonna lovingly referred to her, is a very busy lady baking her Italian treats, raising her twin daughters, and running her new shop, Emi’s Biscotteria, at 206 Forest Avenue. This young woman, with strong roots here on the Peninsula, is building her future based firmly on family tradition. The scrumptious cookies, cannoli and biscotti she makes from her nonna’s recipes are as authentic as you’ll find this side of Paloma. She sells them individually with her specialty coffees, by the dozen, and wholesale to restaurants and gourmet specialty stores. Stop by and meet Emi. The Biscotteria is open every day except Tuesdays. We suggest you try one of her coconut macaroons and a caramel macchiato. Then be sure to call her for all your special events.

The Rum King
Bobby Brown grew up in Pacific Grove and graduated from PG High in 1977. That was the year he decided he was going to head to Florida. He thought he’d never look back. Well, guess who we spotted on the streets of PG just a few weeks ago? It was The Rum King, aka Mr. Bobby Brown, out sharing samples of his wares. Bobby went south and found his true calling. His wholesale/retail rum cake business, CraveRum, has earned rave reviews and is quickly taking its due place in the specialty foods and restaurant industries. Now, with awards and accounts under his belt, Bobby came home to share his new found wealth. So, there he was, with delectable wedges of moist, yummy rum cake gift wrapped for sharing. What a delicious homecoming! This local boy made good. Taste the results at www.craverum. com. He’ll ship anywhere and can’t wait to ship some back home to Pacific Grove! 46 Discover Pacific Grove

Feast of Lantern A Pacific Grove Tradition
The Feast of Lanterns has evolved over its 100-plus year history from a Chautauqua Assembly closing ceremony to a four-day community event filled with family entertainment. Meet the Royal Court at the Opening Day Ceremonies. The Court is made up of high school girls (princesses) who have submitted essays and committed to a grueling year-long schedule in exchange for the honor of sitting on the Royal Court and an educational scholarship. The Feast of Flavors offers a variety of delectable meal options for a small donation at Chautauqua Hall. A Pet Parade is held on Lighthouse Avenue Friday afternoon.
The event concludes with the pageant on Lovers Point Beach amidst thousands of lit lanterns. This event is held near the site of the City’s former Chinese Village and it was the Chinese fishermen who’s lanterns were the first to be seen from these shores.

Marita Brings Men’s Wear To Pacific Grove Since Holman’s Department Store closed in the seventies, the lack of a men’s wear outlet in PG had become a running joke voiced on the street and even in council meetings. No more, thanks to Marita Johnson, of Marita’s Boutique & Shoes fame. Marita, who rescued Orlando’s Shoe Store from oblivion, now brings us men’s Dockers and Levi’s, and Tom’s shoes among other time honored labels. The new store, just around the corner from the boutique, at 158 Fountain Ave., comes complete with a lounge area, stocked refrigerator and a television turned to sports. The ideal shopping experience...the men are comfortable and occupied while the women shop!

A Trumpeter’s Secret If you’ve ever met Babs Hanneman it was probably due to her efforts to introduce you to a special artist or a new piece of work she admires—always the trumpeter of others, never herself. Few know that Babs is a talented artist in her own right. Growing up in art rich Holland, Babs has always found art in everything that surrounds her. Now, with her gallery/store, habitat, at 169a Fountain Ave., she feels free to express herself. Mixed in with precious pre-owned finds from around the world are her whimsical sculptures and jewelry designs. “Yes, I admit I tinker. It’s silly stuff really,” she says modestly. In fact, her pieces are beautiful works of art. Stop by and meet Babs, view her work, and if you ask, she will be pleased to fulfill the offer of “style suggestions” posted in her window.

BookWorks is back!
What is a community without a bookstore? Thanks to a local family, we won’t have to consider this fate.
Margot Tegtmeier, previous owner of Tillie Gorts, has brought her family in to turn a new chapter for Pacific Grove’s BookWorks, which now stands as Pacific Grove’s last remaining bookstore—with a delightful coffee shop up front. “A bookstore is an important part of a community and we wouldn’t want to see it go away. So, we jumped in,” confirms Margot Tegtmeier.
They all jumped in, using their heads first, making the transition nice and slow. Margot’s husband, Allen Tegtmeier, is a professional contractor and now, the resident handy man. Daughter, Jess, designed the new logo and added several special design touches to the coffee shop. At the BookWorks guests are encouraged to read while sipping their morning or afternoon brew. But, let it be known Bookworks is also squarely in the 21st Century and offers free wi-fi to all who wish to venture out into the world-wide web.
The BookWorks offers some 4,200 wellchosen titles in hard copy, including new releases, best sellers, local history, and a wonderful selection of children’s literature.
There are chairs for reading and room for book club meetings, book signings, and knitting klatches. The space is warm and, if there wasn’t a line at the organic coffee bar, you could almost say serene. Natural woods, warm walls, comfortable chairs, and the ever present smell of brewing coffee makes for an ideal atmosphere to relax with a good book. The BookWorks coffee shop
now boasts fresh baked goods by Nell, and she fills each and every one with delicious goodness!
Nell, Margot’s daughter, also manages the bookstore while raising her children and baking heavenly treats.
Stop by and meet the family, enjoy a fresh brewed cup of joe and a scrumptious piece of gluten-free lemon cake then take home the latest best seller for an afternoon well spent. The BookWorks is at 667 Lighthouse Avenue, in Pacific Grove. Discover Pacific Grove 61
