Castroville, up Highway 1 from Carmel, has called itself the Artichoke Center of the World since the 1920s, when Italian growers planted the Salinas Valley's foggy edge with globe artichokes. The crop never left, and neither did the local habit of treating artichokes as a main event rather than a garnish. In Carmel that means grilled Castroville artichokes at the restored Hog's Breath Inn and fried artichoke crochette at Vesuvio, both minutes from the fields that grew them.
