It's like a whole different world. There are elegant ceiling fans made of canvas, bicycle spokes and fishing wire, crystal and dinnerware that the Boehms selected from San Francisco shops, and adjustable lights above each table. And that's just what we did. A highlight is the owner's booth, which seats six or seven. It's higher than the other tables and has a brass and marble chandelier.
Diners control their own lights, music and fan.
Carlotta's has a gas fireplace and oak cabinets, trim, tables and a staircase crafted by woodworkers from Grey Oaks Development, one of several companies owned by Charlotte and Ron Boehm. Their main business is Trans-Box Systems, Inc., a package delivery and courier firm with customers in nine western states. That's what I hope Carlotta's will be like, a place people come to celebrate.
