Re: Harris Ranch trip report
May I ask how you do that? Did you drive over there and buy their prime rib and cook it yourself? Or do they sell their beef somewhere in the market?

Re: Harris Ranch trip report
I think Whole Foods carries Harris' products (at least in L.A. area. I think you can also find them througout the Bay Area).
I think time or year is key for visiting Harris. Prevailing winds are important. In that spring and summer, I believe the winds blow the stench south onto the property. I had stayed at the hotel one night in May and the smell was all over the place. However, I have been there in the fall many times, and I didn't notice the smell. Harris is a good place to stop for a meal if you are driving the 5. However, if you have a little more time to spend, I would recommend going to "Woolgrowers" in Los Banos. It is a Basque, family style, restaurant. Well worth it. |

Re: Harris Ranch trip report
It would've been pretty cool if instead of landing in the plane, you dudes sky dived down Johnny Utah/Bodhi style.

Re: Harris Ranch trip report
Haha, my friend actually flew me down there a few weeks ago, in a four-seater Cessna. Fun trip.
I had the ribeye with a baked sweet potato - very very good stuff. |

Re: Harris Ranch trip report
I stopped at this place last summer, on a drive from San Francisco to LA. We didn't go to Harris Ranch itself, and instead got Subway from the gas station / mini-mart. This was back when I was manic and delusional and believed that I was about to recieve a positive HIV test result, which belief I had acquired based on someone's hand motions that I believed to be predicting the future. The mini-mart had a little sign at the register saying that Harris Ranch employees could get an employee discount but that they had to show ID. I think the mini-mart was a Harris Ranch property, maybe?
This place really is in the middle of nowhere. I guess enough people do the trip from LA to SF and back to make a highway-side awesome place like this possible and very popular. |
