Sue’s Indian Cuisine – Mountain View, CA
Sue’s Indian Cuisine 216 Castro St. Mountain View, CA 94041 650-969-1112 If I don’t go to Sue’s once a week, I get grumpy. You can imagine my state of mind after a month of being under a deadline at work which had me eating at my desk instead of getting my Bengan Bharta fix!! Sue’s…
Al Gatto Nero – Torino, Italy
Al Gatto Nero corso Turati, 14 Torino TO Piemonte, Italy 011 59 0414 Eat here. This was the best meal we had in Europe. I’m contemplating going to the 2006 Winter Olympics in Torino just for the excuse of going to Gatto Nero again. They love wine, the markup is miniscule and the list is…
Restaurant Christian-Etienne – Avignon, France
Restaurant Christian-Etienne 10 rue de Mons 84000 Avignon FRANCE We sauntered in to Avignon on the train with no reservations and neither of us really speak french. We go straight to the tourist center, get hotel recommendations and then go in search of a place for dinner. The town is great, it is still surrounded…
Le Vagenende – Paris
Le Vagenende 142, Boulevard St-Germain 75006 Paris 01.43.26.68.18 We turned in to Le Vagenende because of their tremendous display of oysters in the front window…and we weren’t disappointed. They were absolutely wonderful. With them we drank a ’98 Meursault “Les Corbins” (Bitouzet Prieur). It was smokey but not a smoked wood taste, more like smoked…
La Porte des Indes – London
La Porte des Indes 32 Bryantston London 020-7836-4141 I think we managed to find the one unimpressive Indian food restaurant in London. What does everyone say? “Oh, just eat indian, you can’t go wrong…” Well, it wasn’t terrible but I’ve had better Indian in San Jose, CA. The pickles that showed up to the table…
Nobu – London
19 Old Park Lane (in the Metropolitan Hotel) London, W1Y 4LB England 020 7447 4747 We showed up for lunch on a weekday with no reservations so we ended up at the sushi bar. That’s not a bad thing since we really got to see how the restaurant worked from there. We were placed directly…

L’Arpege 84, rue de Varenne 75007 PARIS Tel : +33 (0)1 47 05 09 06 So, it’s my first trip to Paris, I want a Michelin meal. Before we leave I call American Express and have their concierge book reservations for us. I give her a list of restaurants and she gets us into L’Arpege…
Chez Panisse Café – Berkeley
1517 Shattuck Avenue Berkeley, California 94709 Café Reservations: (510) 548-5049 Restaurant Reservations: (510) 548-5525 April 2001 The odds were definitely not in our favor: Saturday night, no reservations. For some reason, luck was on our side and we got a table. The menu changes daily according to the fresh garden finds and the deliveries of…
Sooke Harbour House – Vancouver Island, BC, Canada
September 19, 2000
Sooke Harbour House 1528 Whiffen Spit Road Sooke, British Columbia, Canada 250-642-3421 This review is long overdue and because of that I’m afraid my memory won’t hold up to the complexity of the dishes we had while at Sooke. I’m not saying we didn’t have fabulous and memorable meals by any means though. The meal…
Bayona – New Orleans, LA
Bayona French Quarter 430 Dauphine St. (bet. Conti & St. Louis Sts.) New Orleans, LA (504) 525-4455 I did my food research before departing for New Orleans. I visited Zagat’s Web site and looked for the highest food ratings I could find in the French Quarter with the lowest pomposity level. I stumble upon Bayona…
