Restaurant Gordon Ramsay
My wife and I ate here for our last meal in London. We’ve been watching Hell’s Kitchen since season 1, so we were interested to try one of his flagship restaurants (I have eaten at some of his restaurants in Vegas, the latest being Hell’s Kitchen which was very meh). There was their regular tasting…

CORE by Clare Smyth
We had first heard of Clare Smyth and CORE from Season 20 of Top Chef International All Stars, more specifically episode 9 for restaurant wars. It was also very memorable because of the chef’s table where the judges sat which gives you an open view of the nearby kitchen. We also happened to watch the…

Smyth
I was very excited to get to spend additional time with Kristine on a sort of extended birthday celebration, especially since I’d have her all to myself this time and we’d be eating some delicious food. Kristine was decked out in some celebratory sparkles from bow tie to cuffs to shoes. I met Kristine at…

Alinea
I just arrived in Chicago for a work conference and only have a short few days here so tried to make the most of it. On this day of arrival, I had Alinea booked for solo dining in the Salon. Alinea has 3 tastings, the Salon upstairs (in the Tock reservation page, they call out…

SingleThread
It’s our anniversary so I booked us for dinner up at SingleThread up in Healdsburg. This is our third time (link to first time and second time) dining here and we had such an amazing experience when he ate last year. We had first dined here in February 2019 for the winter menu a few…

Quince
This week’s dinner was at Quince which was a favorite of ours. I think this was our 5th or 6th time here, but it’s been 2 years since we’ve been back and the first time since they renovated. The renovations took pretty much the whole year last year. The space is much more open and…

Atelier Crenn
I booked this for Andrea’s b-day. I didn’t recall that we had dined here 4 years ago in 2019 for her b-day as well until I looked it up here on Facebook. Also, prior to this becoming Atelier Crenn, it was Plumpjack where Andrea and I went on a date over 20 years ago… The…

SingleThread
It was an action packed weekend with yesterday’s dinner at the Secret Cove with Outstanding in the Field and then a pool party with one of the partners with whom Andrea works in Healdsburg. Since we were up here, why not have dinner at 3-Michelin starred restaurant Single Thread, which is exactly what we did.…

Addison
Spoiler alert: this was probably the best meal we’ve ever had…and also the most expensive. This restaurant was the main reason we came down here to the San Diego area. At our last Ritual dinner, the person sitting next to me said this was one of his best dining experiences. The following week was the…
