Redirecting Perverts to the Refrigerator Since 1999
Trevese Just found out Trevese has closed its doors. Guess my scathing review was a little late! Our 10 year wedding anniversary snuck up on me somewhat. We’d gone on vacation, had been preparing for our son to start kindergarten, and summer was just flying by. But at the last minute I found a babysitter…
I had such a rock star week. It began with seeing Tori Amos two nights, one of which was from front row center seats. It continued with catching up with Neil Gaiman and meeting Amanda Palmer, and immediately leaving them and going to pick up my lunch date interviewee, Alan Anton of the fantabulous Cowboy…
Cafe Rouge1782 Fourth StBerkeley, CA 94710510-525-1440 I’ve been to Café Rouge a few times now. We always seem to get out to Kermit Lynch late in the day and by the time we get out of there we’re starving. The café is always busy but we’ve always gotten a table. I’ve had a variety of…
Lillian’s Italian Kitchen1116 Soquel AveSanta Cruz, CA 95062831-425-2288 You can’t throw something in Santa Cruz without hitting an Italian restaurant it seems. Ristorante Avanti, Lucio’s, Limoncello, La Posta, all favorites of mine. I was looking for a simple lunch today and remembered that Lillian’s was open for lunch so decided to finally check it out….
Sushi Groove South1516 Folsom StSan Francisco, CA 94103415-503-1950 This is our new pre-Slim’s-show dinner. You could easily miss it if you don’t have the address and aren’t really looking for it. Just keep an eye out, you’ll find it. Slip past the thick curtain over the entry and excellent fish and sake awaits. Hamachi sashimi,…
Sushi Tomi Restaurant635 W Dana StMountain View, CA 94041650-968-3227 I discovered Sushitomi when I worked in Mountain View just a few blocks away. Unfortunately, I found it just a few weeks before our office moved to San Francisco. I had been on a search for good sushi in downtown Mountain View and had failed for…
Michael MinaWestin St. Francis335 Powell StSan Francisco, CA 94102415-397-9222 After the great meal we had at Michael Mina Vegas, knowing the San Francisco restaurant was rumored to be even better, I was very much looking forward to the meal. We decided before we even arrived that we would most likely do the seasonal tasting menu….
La Posta538 Seabright Ave.Santa Cruz, CA 95062831-457-2782 We had an excellent dinner tonight at La Posta. I’ve been meaning go there for ages and we finally made it down. My husband and son devoured the mixed salumi plate (everything on the plate was house-cured except for the imported prosciutto). I had the Baby mixed lettuces…
Aubergine RestaurantMonte Verde at SeventhCarmel-by-the-Sea, CA, 93921831-624-8578 This meal began brilliantly. We got the chef’s tasting menu with the wine pairing. We were brought an Amuse Bouche that was made with cauliflower and coriander seeds. I hate cauliflower and I ate every bit of this dish. The highlight of the evening for me was the…
Soif Wine Bar 105 Walnut St. Santa Cruz, CA 831-423-2020 Downtown Santa Cruz has been taken by storm. A small little wine joint, low profile, on Walnut Ave just off of Pacific (in the back of the old Walgreens building)…it looks like a nice place to stop for a glass of wine while you’re killing…
Bellagio3600 Las Vegas Blvd.South Las Vegas, NV 89109702-693-7223. I’ve had the opportunity to not only eat at one Michael Mina, but two. The first was in Las Vegas and we were impressed, although we were still being subjected to “Vegas people.” They are not our people. The sommelier and waiter were actually quite appreciative of…
NobuIn the Hard Rock CasinoLas Vegas, NV702-693-5090 When we found ourselves planning a trip to Utah, we couldn’t be within a few hours of Vegas and not head there for dinner. We are not gambling people, we are not 110 degree heat people, I do not dress like I just stepped out of the Frederick’s…
B & B Ristorante In the VenetianLas Vegas, NV(702) 266-9977 I used to watch Molto Mario religiously. I have a hard time deciding which I enjoy more, Italian or Japanese food. So on our trip to Las Vegas, I booked dinners for both. The second night we were at Nobu, but our first night was…
Balzac – inside La Stampa Hotel & Spa35 Dawson Street, Dublin, D2, IrelandPhone: (353) 1 677 4444 I couldn’t eat at Boccaccio every night, so I poked around online to try to find somewhere else in Dublin with edible fare. I found a few good references to Balzac so we decided to check it out….
Boccaccio Ristorante Italiano18 Dame StreetDublin 2, IrelandPhone: (+353) 1 679 7049 I’ve been to Dublin twice now. The first trip was in the summer of 2006, the latest was just this past June. Sure, there’s the Book of Kells, churches that are nearly 1000 years old, but what about the food!? Both times I tried…
