Sweet and sour figs, tonka bean salt. $10.50
Willi’s Wine Bar, Santa Rosa CA
This tasted good, but it was too wet for my taste. They also needed to serve it with more pieces of toasted bread for that amount of rillettes. I liked the sweet and sour fig spread though.
Croissant, ham, gruyere, frisee. Lunch tasting $15
Les Clos, San Francisco CA
This sandwich was small, but it was delicious and surprisingly filling (especially when you’ve already had the pate en croute as a starter, hehe). I loved how the croissant was so flaky and buttery!

Poached eggs, bacon, shallots, green onion, creole tomato sauce. $15
The Parish Cafe, Healdsburg CA
This was SO wonderful! The shrimp were scrumptious as was the creole tomato sauce. Everything just brimming with flavor and it wasn’t too heavy. I thought the grits should have been creamier though. They were pretty stiff when they arrived at the table.
