This was SO good! I loved eating this bread with the charcuterie plate. The bread was nicely grilled with the perfect amount of olive oil and tomato.
Ligure insalata – Il Galeone
Bresaola, mozzarella, pomodori conditi, rucola. €9
Il Galeone, Genoa ITALY
Wow, this was a lot of meat for a “salad”, lol! Ok, I can work with this. It was pretty good though and the arugula really help cut the meatiness of this salad.
Corned beef hash – Redd
Poached Maine lobster, bacon, lemon aioli, mixed greens salad. $27
Redd, Yountville CA
Why is everything at Redd so good?! Omg, this hash was lovely and delicious! There’s a side of me that loves the mushy old-school hash, but this fancy version was totally legit. Noms!

Olives are my favorite and I haven’t found an olive I didn’t enjoy. And these were nice and yummy!
Chicken salad – Monu Cafe

This was plain and simple, but it tasted good on a hot sunny day. This tiny restaurant overlooking the sea was nice and relaxing to dine at.
Pan roasted breaded pork scaloppine – La Ciccia
Pecorino, saffron, salsa. $25
La Ciccia, San Francisco CA
This tasted good, but it wasn’t my favorite. The pork was a little dry and the sauce didn’t do much for me. The plate also looked kinda sad.
Lobster with rice – Lizarran
Menu del dia, each €21.90 (with lobster supplemental)
Lizarran, Sitges SPAIN
This came in a huge bowl! It tasted really good, but the lobster was pretty tough to get at. I didn’t mind, but my dining partner didn’t want to get dirty. For me, I loved it!

Bellota cured ham, Iberian “chorizo”, and Iberian sausage. €14.90

I loved this charcuterie plate! The meats were all delicious, and there was plenty of it. I would order this again in a heartbeat.
Blueberry almond tart – Ferrari Spazio Bollicine

This was really almond-y and on the dry side, but it tasted great with a cup of coffee.The crust could have been a tad thinner though.
Redd lobster club – Redd
Poached Maine lobster, bacon, lemon aioli, mixed greens salad. $27
Redd, Yountville CA
Wow, this sandwich was certainly decadent, and it tasted wonderful! I loved that the lobster wasn’t overdressed so it could really shine. Everything on the plate was plain delicious!
Boquerones – El Berro
European anchovies. Variat de tapes €15

My dining partner doesn’t like these, but I think they’re lovely. I love the flavor and their soft texture. Eat with with a bit of crusty bread, and you have a wonderful bite!
