The French Laundry
Donna, her sister and I went to the French Laundry this week. It was as you would have expected - superlative, outstanding, expensive!
Living in the Bay Area, we're spoiled with the range of natural foods and wine that we have easily available. We like to try new wines, new foods, new restaurants. Last summer in Spain and France we made an effort to try every tasty morsel that we could find. I gained new appreciation for ingredients and flavours I've taken for granted all my life.
So, then, the French Laundry was less an out-of-this-world, mind alteringly new experience opening us to new flavours and textures, and more a fantastic summary of the best this area has to offer, that we already try to enjoy as much as we can on a daily basis.

dude, did you eat or just take pictures!? Whatever it was, it looks like you all had fun. You look very English wearing a suit.
Thanks for the msg today. I'll look forward to more TZ photos coming up.
WOW! I saw the bill for that little dinner. HOLY COW! Would you mind putting my kids through college?
Beautiful photography! I love black and whites.
thanks Cate. I did get friendly ribbing from my foodie friends for taking B&W photos of food - especially the French Laundry! That's like spotting Elvis and taking a blurry camera phone picture or something. Cardinal sin. But, I refuse to use flash in those circumstances, and I like my grainy fast film, so...
