What the creator captured
Mark Wiens was deeply impressed by the purity of the tri-tip sandwich at Cold Spring Tavern, noting that it required no toppings other than apple horseradish to highlight the beef's natural flavor. He marveled at the historic atmosphere of the mountain tavern and the massive size of their 'hula hoop' onion rings. The experience served as a perfect introduction to the unique tri-tip culture of California's central coast.
