La Casa's flag is sitting on top of the world, some 29,032 feet towering in the sky. At the peak of Mount Everest, a climber proudly displayed the flag of La Casa, one of Sonoma's most beloved restaurants.
This extraordinary moment connects the high Himalayas with the rolling vineyards of Sonoma County in a unique celebration of the Sherpa community's dual heritage. La Casa, known for its delicious food and warm atmosphere, has been a cornerstone of the local dining scene.
The restaurant's connection to the Sherpa community runs deep, and seeing its flag at the summit of Everest represents the incredible journey these community members have taken — from the mountains of Nepal to the heart of Wine Country.
For the team at La Casa and the broader Sherpa community in Sonoma, this moment is a source of immense pride and a reminder of their remarkable heritage.
