By Pat Sherman For decades the La Jolla Music Society (LJMS) has rented space at local venues to bring some of the world’s top tier classical music and orchestral artists to San Diego. Now, it plans to build its own 500-seat concert hall and home office space on Fay Avenue. If all goes as planned, the $40 million performing arts center would open in October 2017 at its newly acquired 7600 Fay Ave. address. The nearly 31,000-square-foot property, which the LJMS purchased for an undisclosed amount, was developed in 1977 as “Shingle Lane” retail complex, currently home to Tapenade restaurant, two hair salons and a startup tech company. The complex will be demolished to make way for the society’s state-of-the-art concert hall, plus a 200-seat cabaret and multipurpose room, offices, rehearsal space, courtyard and a restaurant. The search is on for an architect and builder specializing in acoustically sound design. “It’s a miracle to find 30,000 square feet in the middle of the Village (of La Jolla). This may turn out to be the best thing that See Music Society, A20
First La Plaza La Jolla tenant revealed: Whisknladle’s ‘Catania’ By Pat Sherman Whisknladle Hospitality, the team behind La Jolla’s Whisknladle restaurant and three Prepkitchen locations (including one on Fay Avenue) are opening a third La Jolla eatery, Catania, in the new La Plaza La Jolla boutique shopping complex at the corner of Wall Street and Girard Avenue. The news makes them the first tenant to announce their inclusion in the La Plaza retail project. Owner Arturo Kassel told La Jolla Light he has signed a 10-year lease with options to renew for up to 20
years. Pending approval of all city permits, Kassel said he hopes to open Catania in early 2015. “When we build restaurants, we’re in it for the long haul,” Kassel said. “You have to be pretty confident and secure in your choice to commit to 10 years, but we feel great about it.” Jon Williams, CEO of Davlyn Investments, which owns the building, said “Catania’s Italian coastal menu and atmosphere will be the perfect dining complement to the upscale shopping and services that La Plaza will provide to the Village of La Jolla.”

The 3,750-square-foot restaurant will open in the top floor corner space of the La Plaza building, which formerly housed Jack’s restaurant and nightclub. Jack’s closed in July 2009 in the wake of a
down economy and employee embezzlement scandal. It has remained largely vacant to date. “Pretty much ever since they went under I’ve kind of had my eyes set on one day maybe doing something there,” Kassel said. “It’s the right location, the right concept at the right time. … Had this opportunity come about a year ago, we probably wouldn’t have been ready to take it. Everything just sort of lined up.” Cantania was inspired by a twoweek, 1,400-mile road trip through

‘Wreckage’ reminds La Jolla High students of drunk driving danger
T
o cooincide with prom and graduation time, students at La Jolla High School got a very real reminder of the dangers of drinking and driving last week. In partnership with Mothers Against Drunk Driving (MADD), the school brought a wrecked car to the quad, which it has done every year for at least 10 years. Student government advisor Joe Cavaiola said the installation is part of a school-wide effort to make students aware of the risks involved with driving drunk. The damage to the car suggests a fatality was involved, he said, “to educate students and make sure they get to see life past prom, past the summer and past graduation.” u — Ashley Mackin

Parents, AT&T clash over proposed park cell tower By Ashley Mackin A meeting was held at Torrey Pines Elementary School May 27 for parents and AT&T representatives to come together and discuss the proposed 30-foot AT&T cell tower at Cliffridge Park. Planned for the outer edge of the park — which is adjacent to the La Jolla YMCA and Torrey Pines Elementary School, and home to La Jolla Youth Baseball and other youth sports — the tower would be situated 20 feet past the yellow foul pole line. At the meeting, AT&T acquisition consultant Debra DePratti Gardner explained that the park site is centrally located to fill a gap in cell coverage and enhance AT&T’s coverage in buildings and cars. The other locations explored — Torrey Pines Christian Church and the YMCA — were determined to be too far away from Torrey Pines Road to provide effective cell coverage to that area. Alex Krasov, Director of Communications for AT&T California, told La Jolla Light that to have smaller cell sites comparable to the one proposed for Cliffridge Park on or near a school is “very common” and that AT&T has dozens across California. However, many parents stated they were not “anti-wireless or anti-technology,” but requested the forum because they were not alerted to other meetings where the project would be discussed. They further expressed frustration over insufficient notification about the project. As required by law, AT&T sent a notification
Parents of Torrey Pines Elementary School students fill the auditorium to learn more about a proposed AT&T cell tower at the adjacent Cliffridge Park. Ashley Mackin to any residence or business within 300 feet of the property line, which included a mailer sent to the school in November 2013, reportedly addressed to “occupant.” “The notification was within the legal requirement, but what I thought they did was the absolute bare minimum,” said parent Catherine Carron. “(Parents at) a school with over 500 children should be considered key stakeholders, so I would have thought it appropriate for AT&T to make sure the key stakeholders knew about it.” The cell tower project was put to a vote during the April La Jolla Community Planning Association and approved 7-6. Many Torrey Pines Elementary parents were unaware the proposal would be discussed at that meeting. “Had we known, we would have rallied a lot earlier and we would have been at the CPA meeting, which probably would have swayed the vote to have that
much community feedback,” Carron said.
Calming Concerns
AT&T used the meeting to allay parent concerns about Electromagnetic Field (EMF) emissions from the tower. Darang Tech of DTech Communications, presented a report on current EMF exposure levels around the school, and the conclusion stated, “On-site measurements for Torrey Pines Elementary School and surrounding facilities resulted in exposure levels well below the FCC’s most stringent General population Maximum Permissible Exposure Limits in accessible areas.” Dr. Jerrod Bushberg was also on hand to discuss the third-party analysis of the proposed tower’s EMF emissions, as required by AT&T procedures. His findings indicate that should the tower be installed, EMF levels would still be below FCC requirements. However, parents were unmoved by this
data, as the FCC regulations on which they are based were signed into law in 1997. “They are saying ‘we’re good with these 20-year-old standards,’ ” Carron said. She proceeded to cite an American Academy of Pediatrics opinion that based on more recent data, there is cause for concern, and the regulations need to be reviewed. “On one side, you have government regulators with a two-decade-old government health standard from a time when smartphones didn’t exist and the telecommunications industry wanting these towers,” Carron said. “On the other side, you have organizations such as the American Academy of Pediatrics.” Another concern came from eliminating the choice of how much EMF their children are exposed to on a daily basis. EMF is found anywhere there is electricity, and both Depratti Gardner and Bushberg argued there is more EMF found in light bulbs or cell phones than what the tower would emit. But parents countered they have the choice to change light bulbs or how often their children play with electronics, but not to have a cell tower near the school. Parents have started a petition for those who oppose the tower’s suggested location, which can be found at chn.ge/Sa6qgb San Diego Planning Commission will make the final decision on the tower, but a date for that decision has not been set. The item will be discussed (if it is agendized) at the La Jolla Shores Association meeting 6:30 p.m. June 11 8840 Biological Grade at SIO. u

Who stole Ms. Thiele’s snake?
La Jolla Elementary (bubble) gumshoes solve ‘crime’ at school By Ashley Mackin t’s elementary my dear Watson … La Jolla Elementary School. More than 70 students gathered for a CSI workshop May 28 to help solve the mystery of who stole the librarian’s snake. Using clues left behind at the “crime scene,” such as a partial footprint, “blood” samples, an unknown powder and a ransom note, students practiced skills such as fingerprint comparison and process of elimination to figure out the culprit. The students were given ink samples from pens used by all four suspects, the blood types and fingerprints of each suspect, and tested material found at the crime scene to find a match. Before investigating the scene of the crime, students heard from San Diego Sheriff’s Department Lab Assistant Alisha Sandvig, who explained how she must use scientific skills to help solve crimes. “Some of our students were introduced to forensics last fall through our afterschool Rendezvous Science Center program, but we found many were eager to know more,” said principal Donna Tripi. Through a grant from the Toshiba Foundation, the La Jolla Elementary School was able to bring the CSI investigation workshop — which started at Innovation Middle School — to its students. The Jolla gum shoes quickly deduced it was Ms. Thiele, the librarian herself! (Dun dun duuuuuun.) She staged the pet-napping and asked for a ransom to help raise money for the library. Case closed. u

From Catania, A1 Italy that Kassel and Whisknladle Hospitality executive chef/partner Ryan Johnston took six years ago. The kitchen will include a wood-burning oven, woodburning rotisserie and grill. Bluemotif Architecture is designing the space, which Kassel said would be warm, but less “kitschy and crafty” than the décor at Whisknladle, a block away on Girard Avenue. “Restaurants over the last couple years have started to look more and more alike, I’d even say homogenous — reclaimed wood, Edison
light bulbs,” Kassel said. “We are going to challenge ourselves and our design team to break away from that and do something drastically different. … The building itself is going to have some beautiful Spanish or coastal Italian architecture, which will make it very easy for us to play off it.” Kassel and his business partners purchased Fresh Seafood Restaurant and Bar at 1044 Wall St. in 2006, reopening it as Whisknladle in 2008. They opened the first Prepkitchen in La Jolla in May 2009, and locations in Del Mar and Little Italy afterward. u

Gunter “Mickey” Hirsch 1920 – 2014
Beloved husband, father, grandfather and brother, Gunter “Mickey” Hirsch, died May 30, 2014, at home with Marion, his wife and companion of 48 years, his son Alwyn Hirsch, and his loyal dog Lucky, by his side. He leaves behind a thriving family spread across Europe, Australia, South Africa and the United States. They include children, Alwyn (Di), Nadine Burns, and Janine (Lee) McMillion; six grandchildren, Jodi, Mandy, Gary, Kim, Taryn and Nicole; seven greatgrandchildren; and his sister, Lisa Frank of Sidney, Australia. He will also be missed by dozens of nieces and nephews, and by dear friends including former colleagues and clients from his long and successful real estate career. Gunter was born on
March 1, 1920, in Frankfurt, Germany, to Leopold and Irma Hirsch, and grew up in Berlin. As a teenager, Gunter escaped the holocaust by fleeing his homeland and settling in Johannesburg, South Africa, with his brother, Helmut (deceased), his sister and his mother. There, he enlisted in the South African army where he served in the infantry and received his nickname Mickey. While in South Africa, Gunter also became a junior member in his brother and brother-inlaw’s renowned import and distribution company, Frank and Hirsch. After the South African uprising in Sharpeville in 1960, Gunter and his second wife moved with her children to London where he succeeded in creating a well-known clothing brand, Elida. Gunter’s talents were many. He was an avid sportsman, taking the opportunity to snow and water ski, and golf, whenever he could. He was an exceptional bridge player, too. Gunter was smart, handsome, muscular, and debonair – qualities that weren’t wasted on a young Swiss woman named Marion Husmann, whom he found skiing in St. Moritz. The two met and married in 1965. A year later, their daughter Janine was born and in 1977, the family moved to La Jolla. The family thrived in their new hometown and Gunter embraced every wonderful aspect of La Jolla, often telling Marion he needed to pinch himself

because he was so happy. He found his niche as a real estate agent at McKusick and Associates, working there with Marion, until the company closed its downtown La Jolla office. He and Marion then joined the Willis Allen Company where they worked until their retirement. Gunter served as trustee and treasurer of the La Jolla Community Planning Association from 1994 through 2002. It wasn’t until after his 90th birthday, in 2010, that the always-energetic Gunter began to really slow down. That’s when he stopped making his bi-weekly treks to the Country Club for the bridge games that he still loved. In his life, Gunter packed in a tremendous amount of adventure and appreciation of all that was beautiful and fun. He never looked back and never regretted his choices Throughout his four-year decline, he repeatedly thanked Marion for being such a good wife, and often told her, “When I’m gone, don’t mourn me. I have had a rich and full life.” Gunter, we will miss your unique self. You made this world more colorful, more ethical, and so much more interesting. A memorial service attended by friends and family was held Monday, June 2, 2014. Please sign the guest book online at www. legacy.com/obituaries/ lajollalight.

La Jolla High resets film fest after threat to teacher
L
a Jolla High School Principal Chuck Podhorsky asked teachers at the school to read a notice in class May 30 announcing that a student film festival scheduled for June 5 was being cancelled due to a threat a student made to a teacher at La Jolla High. Podhorsky’s notice said the festival was being cancelled “due to safety concerns” and the threat was “being taken very seriously.” “My first concern is always for the safety of our staff and students at La Jolla High and decisions will always be made with this focus,” Podhorsky wrote. “Please know that our administrative team at La Jolla High and (school) police are investigating this situation and we will continue to work diligently to resolve it.” A parent whose teenager was competing in the film festival forwarded a copy of the notice to La Jolla Light on May 30.

Police release sketch of armed robber
S
an Diego police made public a composite sketch of a man wanted in an armed kidnapping and robbery in La Jolla. The gunman accosted two women as they were getting into their car in the 7700 block of Draper Avenue about 12:40 a.m. Sunday, May 4, according to police. The suspect, who had a semiautomatic pistol, forced the women into their car, then got in behind the driver and told her to drive to two automated teller SDPD Sketch machines. At the machines, the women were ordered to withdraw cash and hand it over, police said. The gunman ordered the driver to take him back to Draper Avenue, where he got out and fled on foot, police said, adding that the man told the women he lived in the area. Police described the man as black, 24-28 years old and about 6 feet 1 inch, with a muscular build. He was last seen wearing a black, hooded sweatshirt and dark baggy jeans. Anyone with information as to the man’s name or whereabouts was asked to call San Diego County Crime Stoppers at (888) 5808477. Tips that lead to an arrest in the case could be worth a Crime Stoppers reward of up to $1,000. u — City News Service

Group seeking to give Christmas Parade faith-neutral name gains support of La Jolla Democrats By Pat Sherman The San Diego County Diversity and Inclusiveness Group, formed by former La Jolla Town Council trustee Howard Singer to change the name of the La Jolla Christmas Parade and Holiday Festival to one that does not reference a particular religion, scored a minor victory last month. On May 18, the La Jolla Democratic Club, of which Singer is a member, voted 22-0 to support the name change. “I was kind of surprised,” said Club President Derek Cassady. “When it was brought up, I thought there might be wide discussion and even some traditionalists would say that it should be left like it is, but, by golly, there was no appetite for dissent. For people there, it just felt like they understood and felt like this should be the way it is.” Cassady said Singer first presented his name change proposal to the club several
months ago. Singer and his group maintain that the name excludes Jews, Muslims, atheists and other non-Christian groups from feeling welcome at the parade and is particularly egregious given the exclusionary housing polices once practiced in La Jolla, which barred Jews and minorities from buying property or renting here. Singer was scheduled to present his proposal to the Bird Rock Community Council June 3, and said he hopes to schedule a meeting with the La Jolla Republican Women Federated group next. Although the City of San Diego’s Human Relations Commission advisory group has acknowledged that the parade name does not violate any city laws or ordinances, it has also expressed its support for the name change and urged parade organizers to enter into mediation with the Diversity and Inclusiveness Group — an offer parade organizers declined. u

Gillispie School converting home to science building n Structure poised to receive historic nod from city By Pat Sherman A long neglected home at 7415 Fay Ave. that had neighbors grumbling over its shoddy condition is getting a makeover, thanks to The Gillispie School. The 1906 house — located directly adjacent to the independent learning institution’s new multimillion-dollar sports field (which opened last year at 7411 Fay Ave.) — is being converted to a classroom for science instruction at Gillispie. The school has submitted nomination papers to have the building listed as a local historic resource, approval of which the City of San Diego’s Historical Resources Board (HRB) has recommended (a final decision will be made during an HRB hearing at the end of June). Gillispie School board trustee Mike Ryan, a parent who also chairs the school’s building and grounds committee, said a historic designation is “perfectly in line with what we want to do because we want to retain that vintage aspect of the house.” Ryan said only “simple repairs” will be made to the exterior of the structure, such as fixing broken beams on the porch for safety reasons.
Renovations to this early 20th century home on Fay Avenue began last month. The Gillispie School, which purchased the property last year, will convert it to a classroom for science instruction. Pat Sherman “They don’t prescript what color you paint it, but we cannot make any physical changes to the outside of the building,” Ryan said, noting that paint will likely be in
early 20th century period colors. A cottage at the rear of the property built sometime in the mid-1940s has already been restored and is being used as a student art
atelier (French for workshop). The remainder of the property, which Gillispie purchased for $1.225 million in July 2013, will be used as a sustainable garden that students will maintain. “The addition of indoor and outdoor classroom space dedicated to science and sustainability will allow creativity and ingenuity to soar at Gillispie,” said Head of School Alison Fleming. “The classroom area will be designed as flexible ‘maker space,’ which is an innovative way for students to utilize square footage and building materials for hands-on experiences and invention.” The science building will be delineated from the sidewalk with similar brick and wrought iron as that fronting the adjacent sports field, Ryan said, albeit at a lower height. Trees will be planted in the right-of-way between the sidewalk and street, as well as a couple of larger trees in the front yard for students to sit under. Painting will likely begin in the next few weeks, followed by the addition of landscaping and a drip irrigation system. Work on the property should be complete by Aug. 1, so that the classroom can be used during the fall semester. “You’ll see a flurry of work in the month of June because we’re trying to get it done so that the landscapers can have most of the month of July to get the landscaping done,” Ryan said. u

Veterinarian has advice for summer pet care in San Diego By Marti Gacioch Pet owners preparing cats and dogs for a safe, healthy summer should focus on three key concerns: parasites, trauma and overheating, said Julie Breher, DVM, MVPM, owner of La Jolla Veterinary Hospital.
1) Parasites
Dr. Julie Breher with her dog, Clyde

“Fleas are a year-round parasite problem here,” she said. Breher recommends monthly flea preventative treatments, but advises pet owners to discuss their pet’s needs with a veterinarian before selecting a brand because each has its pros and cons. The heartworm parasite is carried by mosquitoes, which pass it into dogs and cats. It takes six months for larva to become an adult heartworm in the pet’s heart, where it reproduces. Common in hot, humid areas with lots of mosquitos, like the Southeast, heartworm is not prevalent in San Diego, but is lethal if not treated. Breher said combination flea/ heartworm treatments are a good

preventative measure. Tick control should also be considered. “I’ve seen dogs return with ticks after camping with their owners in wooded areas, like the Cuyamacas, where ticks on bushes attach to a dog when it brushes past. While ticks are generally not a problem here, they can carry diseases like Lyme disease,” Breher said. She recommends treating dogs with oral or topical options after a vet looks at a dog’s risk and medications. To learn more about parasites, risks and treatment, contact Breher or visit The Companion Animal Parasite Council at capcvet.org
2) Trauma “We see more trauma injuries during the summertime because there are more dogs at parks and the beach wrestling with other animals more often,” Breher said. “They receive joint trauma while interacting and bite wounds from other dogs or cats and wild animals.” While owners can’t prevent all trauma, Breher advises
owners to be alert to a dog that chronically bothers theirs and limit their contact.
3) Overheating “When it’s hot, an open window is not enough to keep a pet cool. Be sure the dog has access to shade, is not over exercised, and has cool, fresh water,” Breher said. “Never leave a dog in a car! I know too many dogs left in a car where the owner was gone 15 minutes and the dog died.” Short-faced brachycephalic breeds (bull dogs, pugs and Pekinese) have breathing problems and overheat easily. — La Jolla Veterinary Hospital is a full-service veterinary medical facility at 7520 Fay Ave., La Jolla.

Light
OPINION
No proof a child ever drowned at Casa Beach I am not sure why the La Jolla Light continues to print things that are demonstrably false. A case in point is the recent article titled, “Children’s Pool Lookout Develops by Decade” within which it was stated, “It was during the 1940s that the atmosphere changed at Children’s Pool. Shea said one summer, a child was swimming through one of the scuppers — as they often did — and got their bathing suit caught and was drowned.” The Children’s Pool was designed with sluice gates, not scuppers. The sluice gates were permanently closed before the Pool was opened to the public in 1931. The gates were closed to facilitate the buildup of a beach behind the wall, not for safety reasons. This is a typical persistent rumor cited by seal activists to demonstrate how dangerous the Children’s Pool beach is to swimmers. And they often cite a “lifeguard” as a source of this information. If a child was drowned, either in 1931 or 1940, it would have made front-page news in the Light and all other local newspapers of the day. No one, as far as I know, has EVER provided such proof from a reputable source. Hearsay is not proof. You will find the correct answers in this reputable source published in the Fall 2006 issue of The Journal of San Diego History online at http://bit.ly/jsdhfall2006 David W. Valentine, Ph.D. La Jolla Editor’s Note: Thank you, Dr. Valentine for helping La Jolla Light set the record straight. We reviewed the report you recommend. It is solid and we thank you for sharing it with us and our readers. We did some further research and found you are correct about the lack of substantiated evidence of a child drowning at Casa Beach. This quote from historian Carol Olten at the La Jolla Historical Society, will further instruct the misinformed: “We have had a number of people trying to research this alleged child drowning. Neither they, nor Mike Mishler (La Jolla Historical Society archivist and curator) or myself, have ever come up with any hard evidence. My theory, at this point, is that somebody was quoted saying either this happened — or might likely happen with this sluice business — and that it got repeated or misconstrued. You might call it an urban legend, but I’m not positive it even qualifies for that — certainly not as good a legend as the ghosts at Hotel del!” As to the difference between scuppers and sluicegates, we offer these definitions for all concerned (and confused!): n A scupper is an opening in the side walls of an open-air structure, for purposes of draining water. They are usually placed at or near ground level, and allow rain or liquids to flow off the side of the open-air structure, instead of pooling within the walls. n A sluice gate is traditionally a wood or metal barrier sliding in grooves that are set in the sides of the waterway. Sluice gates commonly control water levels and flow rates in rivers and canals. They are also used in wastewater treatment plants and to recover minerals in mining operations, and in watermills.

City needs to attend to dying trees on La Jolla Blvd. I have been a resident of La Jolla for more than 60 years and have always found the beautiful pine trees along the 6100 to 6400 blocks of La Jolla Blvd. to be very comforting and beautiful. The trees were planted along the street by the Methodist Church Boy Scout Troop in 1949 and they are now dying. Surely the City of San Diego has means to address the issue and save these beautiful trees. It will cost many, many thousands to have them removed and their preservation should be addressed immediately. I brought this to your attention (city officials Sherri Lightner, Mike Palat and Drew Potocki) over a month ago and have had no response. It would be appreciated if the proper departments are notified and a plan of action is implemented. Thank you for your assistance and attention to this important matter. Joseph D. McGoldrick La Jolla

La Jolla High football team raises cash, prowess for equipment
T
he La Jolla High School football team proved to be champions at many feats — including races, basketball shooting and weight lifting — during the Night of Champions fundraiser May 17. Held at the school, 750 Nautilus St., student-athletes tested their strength through bench presses, deadlifts, shoulder lifts and tricep presses; their focus with different slam dunk and threepoint basketball shooting contests; their speed with sprint races and relay races; and their hunger with a pie-eating contest, all to raise money for football equipment. Parents and friends, as well as the new cheerleading squad, encouraged them from the stands. u — Ashley Mackin

According to the La Jolla Historical Society, before the development of Shingle Lane, the land at 7600 Fay Ave. was the site of Westy’s lumber yard, as seen in this photo from March 1975. Note the sign in front that reads, “Village Retail Center coming soon.” Early editions of the La Jolla Blue Book show that the La Jolla Lumber Company was once also located at this site. Courtesy LJHS archivist/curator Michael Mishler Hugh Davies, MCASD’s director and chief executive officer, said Sherwood Auditorium, built in 1959, is drastically underutilized — particularly by the museum, whose artist lectures are too intimate for the hall. It has only mediocre acoustics for the types of performances produced by the LJMS, and has several “dead spots,” Davies said. “It’s a wonderful turn of events,” Davies said of the future LJMS center. Despite the loss of Sherwood as a performance space, Davies said he is confident the LJMS and MCASD will continue its four-decade partnership — with the museum possibly renting the music society’s new space for the events drawing 500 or more visitors (such as this year’s lecture by artist Christo). “Once or twice a year when we have a
need for a 500-seat space it’s great to have a brand-spanking new, state-of-the-art space so close to the museum,” Davies said. “It’d be very easy for us to have an event on Fay and then have people convene afterward for a reception at the museum.” The confluence of the LJMS’s new space, the cinemas and an expanded contemporary art museum will dramatically change the perception of La Jolla as a major cultural destination, creating an even greater “synergy, symbiosis and collaboration” between music, art and film, Davies said. “It’s a great leap forward if we can all pull off these planned expansions,” he said. “It’s not just good for La Jolla, but for San Diego and the region.” Beach said he has spoken preliminarily with the leaders of other La Jolla and San

s
has happened to La Jolla Music Society in years and years,” said LJMS’s president and artistic director, Christopher Beach. The concert hall will be directly across Fay Avenue from a new, luxury cinema complex being developed in the former Jonathan’s Market space — creating a sort of minicultural zone on Fay. The lead partner in that project, Adolfo Fastlicht, is Beach’s La Jolla neighbor. “His dog plays with my dog,” Beach said. “I look forward to working with him as he’s renovating and we are building these two, so that there’s some harmony between the sites.” LJMS has embarked on a $50 million fundraising campaign that includes a $10 million endowment to offset the new facility’s operating costs. It also recently hired its first education manager, with plans to expand its music education component in the new space. LJMS began to seriously explore establishing its own space in July 2012, when it learned that it would eventually lose the Museum of Contemporary Art San Diego’s (MCASD) nearly 500-seat Sherwood Auditorium, as part of a planned expansion of the museum that would nearly quadruple its exhibition space (set to break ground as early as September 2016). LJMS currently holds its SummerFest concerts, Revelle Chamber Music Series and Frieman Family Piano Series at Sherwood. It also rents space at the Auditorium at TSRI in La Jolla, and at larger venues such as Jacobs Music Center and Balboa Theatre in San Diego, which it would continue to use for performances drawing more than 500 people.
Diego arts organizations about the music society’s plans. Warwick’s Bookstore owner, Nancy Warwick, who rents Sherwood Auditorium for several high-profile author events each year, said Warwick’s would be “very interested” in renting the LJMS’s new space for big-ticket author events, provided the price is right. “It would allow us to keep it in the Village, keep it convenient, and it sounds like it will be a beautiful space,” said Warwick, a La Jolla Village Merchants Association board member, noting the potential for both the concert hall and cinemas to increase exposure for the Village. “I think it will be tremendous,” she said. “It’ll be great for the restaurant business, great for the retail business.” Erika Torri, executive director of the Athenaeum Music & Arts Library, said Beach invited her to view city-approved, preliminary plans for the performing arts space. “Of course we will check it out and talk to the La Jolla Music Society … but we are happy where we are right now with our ‘away’ concerts,” which include the Athenaeum’s jazz and summer concerts at the Auditorium at TSRI, and other small concerts at the Lyceum Theatre and elsewhere in San Diego, Torri said. “I am glad the La Jolla Music Society has another home and can stay in the Village,” she said. “It is a most important part of the cultural life of La Jolla — especially the SummerFest presentations, (which) give La Jolla a national, even international presence.”
www.lajollalight.com announcement was somewhat tempered last Friday by discord from business owners who will have to vacate the property where the music society’s new home will be built. On May 30, just hours after the LJMS closed escrow on the Fay Avenue property, 10News reported that the existing tenants at the site were not pleased with how they were treated during the real estate transaction. Tenant Philip Low, owner of the neurotechnology startup NeuroVigil, recounted with dismay how a neighboring tenant at the site, Pleiku Café Vietnamese restaurant, was evicted last week with little notice. Contacted by La Jolla Light Friday, Pleiku owner Jasmine Phan said she was too distraught to talk, though confirmed her claim that the previous owner did not give her an agreed upon six months notice of the sale, only 30 days. Phan said her family put $120,000 into opening the business in early 2012 and lost $10,000 worth of food last week that they could not afford to store. Phan said she has no money left to relocate. Although Low said NeuroVigil is doing well financially and will weather the setback — though may decide to leave La Jolla — he contends that both the recent property owner, Walter Urbach of Crescenzo #1 LP, as well as the LJMS, could have handled negotiations with departing tenants in a more forthright, compassionate manner. Low said tenants were required to sign an estoppel document outlining the terms of their lease and an amendment by the La Jolla Music Society. Tenants who signed both were allowed to stay in their spaces as long as eight additional months, with a 30 to 40 percent reduction in rent. Those who

La Jolla Music Society closed escrow May 29 on this property at 7600 Fay Ave., which the organization plans to redevelop as a performing arts complex by fall 2017. Pat Sherman proposed edits to the LJMS’s amendment, such as Pleiku Phan, were given a 30-day notice to vacate and treated as though they had not signed the estoppel, he said. The LJMS amendment required tenants to take over liability for any needed repairs to the space, which will nevertheless be demolished, Low said. “(Under the amendment) we would be responsible for all repairs to the building,” he said. “That doesn’t make any sense because the building has termites, the building has plumbing issues and the air conditioning is not working.” Low also claims that Tapenade and his business had five-year options to renew their lease, though when they expressed their desire to renew last year, the previous owner kept putting them off, while not disclosing his intent to sell the property. (Tapenade has until the end of January to relocate.) “Walter Urbach approached La Jolla Music Society well over a year ago to sell …
assuming that we would not renew. Then, he wasn’t really available by e-mail during the renewal period,” Low said. “We were an afterthought. Before we even had the time to renew, they were negotiating to sell this under our feet.” Leigh Ryan, a LJMS board member and part of a 15-person strategic planning committee for the new site, said the LJMS was under the impression that the tenants were all on month-to-month leases (as were two salons at the site, Cristina Q and Sage). Tapenade owner Jean-Michel Diot claims Urbach and Beach led him to believe that Tapenade would be allowed to remain as a component of the new concert hall complex — an offer he said he only recently learned is no longer on the table. “My wife went to see Christopher Beach and he said that he has no room for a restaurant,” Diot said. “They want to have a small café and we’re not part of the picture anymore.” Diot said he hopes to remain in La Jolla,
although it will cost him more than $200,000 to relocate his business, which he has already put $300,0000 into. “We have to turn the page,” Diot said, “but I’m not happy.” Sage Salon owner Lesa Tomaiko, who opened her salon eight years ago, also said the impending move would be a hardship. “My husband had an accident about four years ago,” she said. “Financially, I’m the sole supporter. I have two kids. It’s devastating. … I’m trying to figure out what to do. There’s no spaces that I’ve been able to find that are going to be comparable.” Low said he suggested to Beach that the LJMS let businesses remain in their spaces for a few months rent free, although the idea was rejected, he said. “Why can’t the La Jolla Music Society have the same largesse (as their patrons) and give those guys a break?” he questioned. Ryan said the society has “tried to do what we can in terms of helping the tenants through a difficult transition,” though added that she was “not at liberty to discuss the terms.”
Parking concerns Though the old Jonathan’s site has a garage and outdoor lot to provide parking for the cinemas, Beach said the LJMS commissioned a parking study to assess where its patrons will park. “They did an exhaustive analysis,” he said. “They took a couple of Saturday nights and went around and counted the number of spaces in the Village. There were hundreds and hundreds of spaces within, say, 600 feet. … That said, I’m sure we’ll work out agreements with some of the parking areas nearby.” u

Consider church effort to eradicate malaria The banner in the photo about saving lives has been visible to drivers, bicyclists and pedestrians on La Jolla Boulevard for the last few weeks because La Jolla United Methodist Church is participating in a global campaign by the United Methodist denomination (UMC) to raise awareness and resources instrumental in eliminating malaria in sub-Saharan Africa. Because malaria has been absent from the United States since the early 1950s, for some of us it is inconceivable that one child in Africa dies every 60 seconds from this disease. UMC has had a presence in Africa for 160 years with the infrastructure to apply a sustainable solution to the problem through prevention, treatment, education and communication. For example, UMC is a
founding partner of the Nothing But Nets campaign, providing more than 1 million life-saving bed nets to children in need of protection from malaria-carrying mosquitoes. $10 buys one net and equates to one saved life. Over the last years, the effort has cut malaria deaths by 50 percent. Now, it’s time to move toward eradication with intervention efforts beyond net distribution, using a multi-faceted approach — the Imagine No Malaria (INM) campaign. With the added support of global partners — United Nations Foundation, Global Fund, and the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation — all donations to INM go to malaria intervention programs across Africa. LJUMC has launched a five-month campaign to raise awareness about malaria and its treatment. LJUMC Nursery School and Boy Scout Troop 506 have joined the campaign and will have summer educational programs on related topics. LJUMC has pledged to do more than its shared toward the UMC denominational goal of $75 million. We invite our community
to join in this effort to eradicate malaria. Donations can be made online at lajollaunitedmethodist.org and the “giving” link in the upper right-hand corner accesses the giving page. There, under “Directed Giving,” scroll down to Imagine No Malaria. Also, checks made out to La Jolla United Methodist Church with “INM” in the memo section can be mailed to: La Jolla United Methodist Church, IMN 6063 La Jolla Blvd. La Jolla, CA 92037 Sandra Coler and Dr. Sal Butera On behalf of La Jolla United Methodist Church

good news for the future of solar Last April, snipers opened fire at an electrical power station near San Jose, CA and knocked out 17 huge transformers that funnel power to Silicon Valley. To avoid a blackout, power was rerouted to various plants in Silicon Valley that, consequently, had to produce more electricity to compensate. This lasted for 27 days. If solar battery systems had been installed at the San Jose
power station, it certainly would have saved California a lot of electricity. The attack was carried out with military precision, they left no clues, and have a $250,000 reward for information leading to prosecution. Solar battery systems are designed to store energy if there’s an outage. It sounds efficient and harmless enough, but utilities are afraid people will charge batteries with cheap nighttime power and offset expensive daytime purchases, which are more profitable for the utility. It wasn’t until May 15 of this year that the California Public Utilities Commission (CPUC) finally approved a decision to ease the restrictions on solar battery projects and approve hundreds of applications that have been stalled for up to two years. Here’s the problem with the utility companies’ argument: solar battery systems aren’t designed
to arbitrage energy back onto the grid. They are designed to hold the batteries in reserve for a power outage. They only discharge when the grid goes down. It doesn’t even make sense to export the battery stored solar energy for net energy metering (NEM) credits because the cost of wearing down the battery is much more valuable than NEM credits. But, finally, on May 15, 2014, the CPUC unanimously approved a decision that makes energy storage systems exempt from interconnection application fees, supplemental review fees, costs for distribution upgrades, and standby charges when interconnecting under the current NEM tariffs, provided they meet the following criteria: they are paired with NEMeligible generation facilities and they qualify under the RPS Guidebook as an “addition or
enhancement” to NEM-eligible systems. The decision also places limitations on the size of the battery storage systems and includes metering requirements to protect the NEM program. Eventually, being able to marshal the output of thousands of battery systems will help the stability of the grid and avoid line losses. The CPUC’s decision to make battery-backed solar power more economically viable for homeowners certainly seems like a step in the right direction to help California reach its goal of becoming the country’s leader in energy storage. For over thirteen years, our goal at Home Energy Systems has been to help California reach their green energy goals by helping our customers become energy self-sufficient.

Julio DeGuzman cherishes his family, faith and community
J
ulio DeGuzman of La Jolla is a 25-year retired special agent with the Naval Criminal Investigative Service (NCIS), where he conducted procurement fraud investigations on U.S. Navy contractors. For three years at the U.S. Embassy in Manila, Philippines, he conducted counterintelligence and counterterrorism operations. After a promotion, he became a senior special agent with the U.S. Department of Defense, Office of the Inspector General, conducting investigations of fraud against the Julio DeGuzman government, whitecollar crimes, kickbacks, bribery and health-care fraud. DeGuzman now works at the San Diego City Attorney’s Office. For more than six years, he’s been president of the Pangasinan Association of San Diego County, and he serves on the boards of the Filipino American Chamber of Commerce, the Filipino American Law Enforcement Association and is an elected member of the San Diego County Republican Central Committee. He and his wife, Lisa, an ICU registered nurse, are the parents of three children — all graduates of All Hallows Academy. For five years, he chaired the school’s Dad’s Club and he serves on the parents committee of the Gathering Youth Ministry in La Jolla. DeGuzman was the assistant coach of the La Jolla Junior Wrestling Club for two years, and he coaches the San Diego Alpine Junior Ski Team, which participates in the Far West Racing Association program, hosting eight races a year, mostly at Mammoth Mountain. What brought you to La Jolla? In 1986, I was working for the federal government and was assigned to the U.S. Embassy in Manila, Philippines. I received my next assignment to San Diego. I was happy because I grew up in San Diego. I heard about All Hallows Catholic Academy and thought it would be a good school for my daughter. Twenty-eight years later, I am still here and have no plans on moving.

Midcentury
Modern in La Jolla
Historical Society exhibit shows the town’s ’50s-’60s flair By Linda Hutchison he new exhibit at the La Jolla Historical Society (LJHS) will take you back to a unique time in La Jolla history — a time when many local innovators were looking forward and breaking ground with new ideas. “Climate Change: Midcentury Modern La Jolla,” which opened May 4, refers not to the weather but to the optimistic cultural climate of the postWorld War II years. In La Jolla, this climate change was brought about, in part, by several artists, designers and architects who often worked together to introduce modern design ideas in homes, buildings, furnishings and art.

Let Inga Tell You
Hail Caesar! But hold the fish sauce
A
La Jolla Cultural Partners
s a single working mom, I couldn’t spend much time at my kids’ schools during the day, which is probably how I got suckered into organizing an authentic Roman feast for my son’s classically-ennuied seventh-grade Latin class. An end-of-the-school-year celebration, it was an evening event so I really had no excuse. I would like to say that a lot of authenticity gets lost between the ancient Romans and the version suitable for modern middle school students. It was going to have to be held indoors in the gym so chariots were going to be problematical, but I still thought we could have Olympic-style games, wear togas, and stage a feast using only ingredients available during Roman times. Fortunately, a cookbook had come out which translated recipes of ancient Rome into English, and more importantly, into ingredients found at your local Vons. Well, mostly found. It had an admirable selection of dishes, but unfortunately no section on Junkus Foodus, the category most likely to appeal to our target audience. The foods we associate with modern Rome didn’t exist then and the
ancients, I discovered to my dismay, tended to slather a salty sauce of desiccated fish on pretty much everything. I couldn’t imagine that a group of kids whose sense of adventure didn’t extend to eating the fish sandwich at Jack in the Box would go for anything icthyologically encumbered. For the same reason, we nixed the lamb brains with a side of olive paste, and a host of similar delicacies. In my research, I was intrigued by a banquet dish made of flamingo tongues, which sounded from the description like ancient Flamingo McNuggets. Problem: flamingo tongues were not available, even at Jonathan’s. There was always Plan B, but the Zoo would notice they were gone. Fortunately, the Romans were also big on pig parts wrapped in pastry dough. Ecce! Several pork products were purchased and the recipe tested for the relative merits of phyllo dough versus Lady Lee Refrigerator Roll mix, which we assured ourselves the Romans would have had if they thought of it. We finally had our main course. Back in Roman times, if the gods were willing to let the feast commence, they would send favorable signs (secunda) and the guests could be seated. As it turns out,
this sometimes involved examining the entrails of a sacrificial victim. Personally, I thought this would be a GREAT incentive not to be the lowest scoring student on the mid-semester declension test. In the Roman tradition, we were going to have games before the meal, and “volunteer slaves” (an oxymoron if there ever was one) would serve part of the meal. I was pleased to read that most table slaves in ancient Rome were male, a thought that appealed to my feminist sensibilities. I rather liked imagining those ancient Roman housewives complaining about how hard it was to find a good Macedonian cleaning man. Indoor competitive events turned out to be more problematical than I had anticipated. The Latin teacher, who had gamely volunteered to be the object of an extremely popular wet sponge toss the year before, maintained he was still recovering from the eye infection. Fortunately, most of the new ideas we came up with were nicely unisex, including the discus throw, which some might have confused for Frisbees. Hoping to winnow out the teacher population, one student submitted a game idea called “Gladiator Fights to the Death” then listed various teacher pairs. That idea went the way of the flamingo
tongues. Instead, a largely-improvised play, extremely loosely based on “Julius Caesar,” which none of the kids had read, was staged while the male members of the audience lay Romanstyle on pillows on the floor at their low tables emitting lifelike imitations of intestinal gas. Afterward, it occurred to me that that might actually have been the most authentic part of the evening. And so a reasonable facsimile of a Roman feast took place. As a strictly weenie mom observation, I would like to say that the students all looked incredibly cute in their togas and laurel wreaths. The banquet food was well received, especially the dry ice from our ice cream dessert, which was dunked into the grape juice for amazing special effects. We forewent the secunda. Gaudeamus Igitur, a staple of my East Coast upbringing, was sung, apparently for the first time west of the Mississippi. And I went back to being the working mom, who, alas, wasn’t available for big school projects. Hallelujus. u — Look for La Jolla resident Inga’s lighthearted looks at life in La Jolla Light.

Flavors of Mexico served in style at El Agave By Kelley Carlson uilding upon the success of El Agave in Old Town, owner Juan Carlos Gomez decided to take a shot with another location in Del Mar. Located in a 6,000-square-foot space in Del Mar Plaza, the newest El Agave boasts ocean-view dining, colorful mosaic art and rustic décor, along with Mexican cuisine from the country’s southernmost regions. “Many guests would travel from North County to the Old Town location. It’s our turn to come to them,” Gomez said in a news release. El Agave’s arrival in North County was welcomed news for tequila aficionados. The Del Mar site carries about 700 varieties, including the restaurant’s own awardwinning Tequila El Agave Artesenal, made from 100 percent blue agave in Los Altos de Jalisco, Mexico. With such a wide selection, patrons have the flexibility of choosing something to swirl and sip, or for quickly imbibing in a shot (or two). Or they can savor the flavors in a Cointreau Perfect Margarita or a dessert-like drink, such as the Meha Tequila Cocktail, a blend of pineapple and coconut juices,

Mole Poblano Don Julio consists of boneless chicken breast covered in a sauce of asilla, ancho and mulato chiles, tomatillo, clove, black pepper, chocolate, garlic, cinnamon, coriander seed and sesame seed.

On The Menu Recipe Each week you’ll find a recipe from the featured ‘On The Menu’ restaurant at www.bit.ly / menurecipes
n This week’s recipe:
El Agave’s Mole Rosa (Pink Mole)
chocolate-infused tequila and whipped cream. Tequila can be found in some of the entrees, too, such as the Camaron al Tequilana (Tequila Shrimp). But El Agave isn’t only about tequila; guests can feast on dishes prepared by Executive Chef Mario Montes, who hails from Mexico City. He creates bold, authentic flavors through spices unique to regions such as Oaxaca, Yucatan, Puebla and Central Mexico. Montes also uses cuitlacoche (corn fungus) in many dishes, which is considered a delicacy in Mexico. Among them: the Tlacoyos Cuitlacoche, composed of blue corn masa (tortilla dough) stuffed with black beans and cuitlacoche, salsa verde, queso fresco, cilantro and onion. Another restaurant specialty is the mole sauces, made from chile peppers. There are a half-dozen types, all made from scratch, “just like my grandmother used to make,” General Manager Gerardo Gonzalez said. “If you try the mole, you will fall in love with it,” he predicted. One of El Agave’s signature dishes is the Mole Poblano Don Julio with boneless chicken breast covered in a spicy reddishbrown sauce that’s composed of asilla, ancho and mulato chiles, along with tomatillo, clove, black pepper, chocolate, garlic, cinnamon, coriander seed and sesame seed. The majority of El Agave’s menu centers around seafood and meats, although there are some vegetarian items. A favorite is the Sea Bass Ajo y Achiote, featuring tender fish in a garlic-chipotle chile sauce with a bit of a kick, on a bed of mashed potatoes, and served with vegetables such as carrots and asparagus. Filet mignon is used in all the steak dishes, including the Filete Agave, in which the meat is filled with goat cheese and served with dark tequila sauce. Customers can top off their meals with a treat such as flan with cajeta (a silky caramel-like concoction made of goat milk), strawberries and whipped cream. u

Let’s Review Diana Saenger
Laughter abounds in new Globe comedy
M
any Old Globe patrons entering the theater for the San Diego premiere of Christopher Durang’s “Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike” had the same reaction. They were uttering the word “wow” at the set design by David Korins and light design by David Weiner. The duo created a beautiful country home, set in Pennsylvania, adorned with brickwork and a lavish lawn. The outdoor patio is the perfect place to relax, or as happens in this play, to make surprising discoveries. Vanya (Martin Moran) and Sonia (Marcia DeBonis) are siblings who’ve been living together in the family home their parents left them. Now aging, they are often more disagreeable with each other. As the two sit on the patio in the morning drinking coffee, Vanya complains that his is not as good as usual. Sonia, who made the brew, is offended and suggests he give it to her to fix. She hurls his cup to the floor and it shatters into pieces. When she offers Vanya her cup, there’s a similar incident and the audience is in stitches. When housekeeper Cassandra (Haneefah Wood) shows up, the patio becomes a New Orleans side show as she bumps and grinds and chats with unseen spirits. Delightfully funny, Wood steals much applause throughout her performance. Things at home change rapidly when Vanya and Sonia’s sister, Masha (Candy Buckley), comes home. A self-absorbed
Life*
movie star, Masha brings along her latest beau, Spike (Tyler Lansing Weaks). Masha considers him a “hottie” since he’s much younger than she. Spike’s behavior is so outrageous that Vanya has negative reactions. Sonia continues to throw out one-liners about Spike that keep the laughs coming. Moran is great as Vanya, but it’s DeBonis who steals the show as the uneven and temperamental Sonia. Buckley doesn’t miss a minute capturing applause as the attention-getting Masha. She tells her siblings she is going to sell their home, and a moment later, she also makes demands of them. She invites them to accompany her to a neighborhood costume party, but manipulates them into becoming characters that support her Snow White costume. There’s rarely a moment without gales of laughter as they emerge one by one in silly dwarf costumes. Jessica Stone has done a marvelous job directing the play, based on Nicholas Martin’s Tony-nominated Broadway direction. The play is smart, enjoyable, and probably would have had Chekhov himself laughing at the tweaking of his characters. n IF YOU GO: “Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike” plays matinees, evenings to June 22 on The Old Globe Theatre’s Shiley Stage, 1363 Old Globe Way in Balboa Park, San Diego.

From Midcentury Modern, B1 Midcentury modern refers to the years from 1945 to 1970. The exhibit in the Wisteria Cottage galleries on Prospect is the Historical Society’s first since it re-opened on May 1 after nine months of renovation. The renovation expanded the gallery space and also included the installation of original oak wood flooring from another 1920s La Jolla cottage. The choice of an exhibit about midcentury design was a natural one for the refurbished gallery, said Heath Fox, LJHS executive director. “It’s the 50th anniversary of the La Jolla Historical Society, which was incorporated in July 1964,” Fox said. “A lot was happening then in La Jolla — the university, Salk Institute, La Jolla Playhouse, the Art Center and the introduction of midcentury architecture throughout La Jolla. The exhibit captures those individuals and organizations, as well as commercial galleries and retail shops, that were champions of this modern aesthetic.” To illustrate the influence of modernism in La Jolla history, the exhibit, curated by Dave Hampton, includes the stories and works of several major contributors, focusing on three: Russell Forester, Robert Mosher and Lynn Fayman. n Russell Forester (1920-2002) was an architect and artist who moved to La Jolla at age 5. He served as a draftsperson in the Army Corps of Engineers during WWII and met his first wife, Eleanor, also a

Photo by Charles Schneider / Courtesy of Lynn Forester draftsperson, at a shipbuilding company in National City. After spending a year at the Institute of Design in Chicago, the couple moved to La Jolla, where he opened his first office at 633 Pearl St. and designed and built their first modern home at 724 Rushville. He designed the first Jack in the Box restaurant and went on to design several others in San Diego. He retired in the ’70s and devoted his remaining years to art.
in architecture. He moved to La Jolla in the 1940s and worked for several firms before starting his own with partner Roy Drew. He set up his first office in the Green Dragon Colony on Prospect Street, a former artists’ colony bought by his father. Mosher/ Drew projects include residences and buildings in La Jolla and San Diego, including UCSD’s Muir College and San Diego-Coronado Bridge. He currently lives in White Sands.
n Robert Mosher (1920) was born in Colorado and attended the Art Center School of Design in Los Angeles, USC and the University of Seattle, earning his degree
n Lynn Fayman (1904-1968) was an experimental photographer who moved to La Jolla in the 1940s after working as a landscape designer and stage lighting
engineer. He was a photographer for Ryan Aeronautical, became involved with the La Jolla Art Center (now the Museum of Contemporary Art, and opened his own studio in Bird Rock. Many of his photographs captured La Jolla’s lively midcentury modern scene. The Art Center also played a pivotal role during this time, attracting artists and teachers from around the country and fostering an atmosphere of cooperation and friendly competition. Art galleries such as i Gallery, Art Works and The Jefferson Gallery and retail shops such as Armin Richter Interiors and Dean Marshall Interiors also sprung up selling modern work. The exhibit includes several representative pieces, such as paintings, sculpture, furniture and decorative items. The term midcentury modern is only about 15 years old and has become popular as nostalgic baby boomers remember the simple designs they grew up with. Most of those who first purchased modern furniture are now in their 80s and 90s and letting go of possessions that could expand LJHS’s exhibit collection. “We are hoping that those who still have midcentury modern objects and furniture will donate,” said Heath. u n IF YOU GO: “Climate Change: Midcentury Modern La Jolla” is open noon to 4 p.m., Thursday-Sunday through Sept. 7 at Wisteria Cottage Galleries, 780 Prospect St. Admission is free.

Southwest Scallop Cocktail
Catharine L. Kaufman
Don’t be shellfish, share your scallops
J
une celebrates the rich bounty of oceanic offerings with a designated National Seafood Month. The king of the mollusk family, the mighty scallop dates back to biblical times. It is a symbol of fertility and pilgrimage with its gorgeous symmetrical shell incorporated into classical art (Botticelli’s Birth of Venus), Greek mythology, ancient religious ceremonies and architecture.
The Shell Game The word “scallop” is derived from the Old French escalope, meaning “shell.” The scallop’s fan-shaped shell with radiating ridges from a pair of auricles tells many clues about this animal’s life. Each ring marks a scallop’s birthday or a traumatic event. The Methuselah of scallops has lived up to 20 years. Scallops are bivalve mollusks, close cousins to oysters, clams and mussels, with their digs ranging from the intertidal zone to the salty deep seas around the globe.
Buoys will be Buoys While there are boy and girl scallops, some are also hermaphrodites having both male and female sex organs. The gender of the scallop not only determines the color,
but the flavor and texture. The hue of the scallop ranges from milky white to rosy pink. Knowledgeable fishmongers can advise you of the choicest picks, the pinky ones being female and also the sweetest and most tender of the harvest.
Inspired by Herringbone Chef Jordan Davis • Serves 2 ■ Method: ■ Ingredients: • 1/2 pound each bay scallops and medium- In a medium-size glass bowl combine sized sea scallops (halved), steamed all the sauce • 1 cup vegetable juice ingredients. Add • 1/3 cup tomato juice scallops to the sauce • 1 teaspoon fresh lemon juice and toss gently. • 1 teaspoon Tabasco sauce Cover and • 1 tablespoon sweet onion, minced refrigerate for 2 • 1 Persian cucumber, minced hours. Evenly • 1 teaspoon minced cilantro distribute the • 1 Roma tomato, minced mixture into 2 cocktail glasses or glass • 1/2 firm avocado, diced ramekins. Garnish with lemon twists or • 1/4 cup Absolut Peppar Vodka (optional) cilantro sprigs and serve with flat bread. • Lemon twists and cilantro for garnish
The Muscular Mollusk The scallop is an unusual bivalve endowed with athletic prowess as a freeswimmer. By rapidly clapping its shells together with its strong adductor muscle, a stream of water over the shell hinge propels the scallop. This round, fleshy muscle or the “nut” is the edible part of the scallop. As you are eating the muscle, it has to be gingerly prepared, not overcooked into a rubbery jaw workout.
Scallop Line-up Three types of scallops are consumed in the United States: n Sea scallops are the meaty, larger “nuts,” sometimes two inches or more in diameter, and 1-inch thick. n Bay scallops are much smaller than their sea scallop siblings, but have the same circular shape and oceanic nuances, and are even sweeter and more tender. n Calicos, harvested from the Gulf and
South Atlantic coasts, unlike their Northern counterparts, have to be steamed open as their shells are sealed shut. Scallops are harvested by either randomly scouring the sea floor (trawling), or the more sustainable method of sending divers to handpick mature scallops from the bed of the ocean, ergo the name “Diver” scallops.
In for the Count Scallops are usually sold by “count-perpound.” The large sea scallops are typically 10/20, or between 10 and 20 per pound. Colossal scallops are marked U/10 or U/15 meaning less than 10 or 15 per pound. Smaller Bay scallops are sold 30 to 50 or even higher per pound — the greater the number, the smaller the scallop. When buying scallops, trust your nose, discarding fishy smelling ones, while choosing those bursting with fresh flavors of the sea. They should also be firm
without cracks or breaks in the muscle. As they are extremely perishable, use the same day or opt for frozen “dry pack” without harmful additives.
Fish Facts Scallop is a lean, low fat, high-protein powerhouse. Packed with heart-healthy omega-3s, magnesium and selenium, bone boosting vitamin D, nerve and blood cell strengthening B-12s, A’s for skin and ocular health and potassium, scallops are as tasty and versatile as they are healthful. Sauté sea scallops in white wine, grill or sear with a balsamic glaze or poach in a miso broth. Toss tender bay scallops in a chilled buckwheat noodle salad, quinoa tabouleh or your favorite pasta dish. Stir fry with snow peas, broccollini and red peppers. u For additional recipes from the Kitchen Shrink, e-mail kitchenshrink@san.rr.com
