Mosaic Restaurant & Wine Lounge
Forestville, CA
Monthly. Our favorite local restaurant that has perfect el fresco summer dining and cozy living room for winter. Ask about the signature mushroom appetizer, not on the menu, and a must have. The scallop appetizer changed how I think of scallops, the filet is above and beyond and I cannot make a visit without having the house salad. Is that enough? There's more...

Paul K, Mediterranean Cuisine and Cocktail Bar
San Francisco, CA
Nov. 2007. A great neighborhood restaurant that will please your palate & not rob your wallet. We recommend the mezza platter to start which is a great introduction to the stylish and hip restaurant. The duck & lamb entrees were excellent

Tastes
Encinitas, CA
March 2008. An incredible menu laid out with pairings done by chef/owner/somm and well done. The dish of mushroom gnocchi was delicate and flavorful as well as a perfect pairing with the recommended pinot noir. The short ribs are some of the best ever experienced by 2 foodies. You won't be disappointed here.

Artisan Cheese Gallery
12023 Ventura Blvd., Studio City, CA
March 2008. We met the owner at an event in Sonoma who invited us to visit her humble store for lunch. We had no expectations except the high energy of the owner. We ordered a salad & a sandwich with great difficulty because everything on the menu sounded delicious. A solid panini with no myths of ingredients & a salad with marcona almonds, aged gouda; we were in heaven. Definitely worth a visit if you are in the area.

Frasca Food and Wine
Boulder, CO
Jan. 2008. This is an experience of service and dining by an expert. The restaurant operated by an MS and has another 2nd MS staff member. The dishes are impeccable; service and the team of MS's will seriously blow your mind with charm & knowledge. The menu changes frequently; trust them, I did.

Vivace Restaurant
Tucson, AZ
Feb. 2008. I have never been mesmerized by an understated room and service to find incredibly prepared cuisine, simply done. The seafood lasagna was out of this world!
