A Fabulous Dinner in San Francisco/ by Robyn Wolfe, Marketing Director

Last night Annie, Mary Lou, and I made a fabulous dinner in Annie’s kitchen:

Small bites of grilled tartine: dense and chewy walnut bread with a Humboldt Fog interior

Burrata with oven roasted tomatoes, the best olive oil in the world, and a sprinkling of julienned basil

Springtime spaghetti carbonara with ramps, English peas, favas, speck, and snap peas- delicious and simple thanks to Andrew Carmellini’s Urban Italian cookbook.

Lovely spring lettuces with Alice Water’s green goddess dressing- chock full of plucked tarragon, basil, and parsley

All washed down with a Zin, a Carignane and Petite Syrah blend by Ridge.

And, I whipped up a fabulous Greek yogurt mousse with a stewed tart apricot sauce- a recipe Annie loves!

Check out her fabulous little B&B to stay at the next time you get to San Francisco: Annie’s Cottage.

    Having been to Andrew Carmellini’s restaurant, Locanda Verde, on this last trip to New York, I do have to buy his book now.
    Also, I must know- what is the best olive oil in the world?
