    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.

    Niku Steakhouse

    It had been awhile since we had eaten here (Jan 4, 2020 to be exact). Always so many restaurants to try here so we don’t repeat very often. But we’d been so disappointed with any other steakhouse (Mastros, Harris, STK), but we did have a great experience here last time. So when on our reservation,

    Izakaya Rintaro

    This week’s dinner was a bit more lowkey than our more typical fine dining. This restaurant often appears on a lot of lists so we figured we’d try it again.

For us, it’s often about the quality of the spices and of course the preparation,

    Sushi by Scratch

    Tonight’s dinner was at Sushi by Scratch at the Montecito Inn in Montecito. This is the other Michelin-starred restaurant in the SB area (both being in Montecito, just a few block apart). The entire restaurant is the sushi bar which has only has 10 seats. It sounds like Scratch has a chain of sushi restaurants

    Caruso’s

    We’re here in SB, so checking out some of the places to eat of course. Last night, we had a very enjoyable casual meal at Corazon Concina in the Public Market. Today we were going for a fancier venue. Caruso’s is a Cal-Italian restaurant at the Rosewood Miramar with a beachfront location. We were fortunate
