the other Keller joing in Yountville is Ad Hoc. Monday they have fried chicken and Tuesday they had,get this, "LOUISIANA BBQ". Now I ask you...................................
Best place we ate was REDD and followed closely by Celedon. Keller is entirly to proud of his stuff, has a Charlie Trotter ego and it screams tourist. French L is absolutely over the top expensive especially for small plates, it's best days are behind it and Buchon is tight,crowded, loud and not a all enjoyable for what he charges. Every winemaker we talked to said Redd first and the new Michelin star resturand at Chandon as the first two "it's special, my birthday " type places they would take their significent other.

these are all in the same area?
what type of food is REDD?
did you eat at French Laundry?
eta: just looked up REDD. place looks badass, and $75 for the tasting menu dinner ($120 with wine pairings) is not bad at all.

Redd is in Yountville and Celadon in Napa, like 8-10 miles away. We stayed at Le Residance close to half way so traveling was easy. AT at French 10-12 years ago I guess it was b4 it became like the Inn at Little Washington,over done. Had eaten at French and Bouchon before and wanted to try Ad Hoc but after two consecutive nights of what they had I figured it was a sign. Botega, is new and VERY good as well too by the way.Michael Chiorella(sp) just opened it.

This is my dream food and drink vacation, but solely for the drink.

If you're an alcoholic or have a giant sweet tooth, Belgium is the place for you.

They were hot...I liked Polish women the best...at least the younger ones...Krakow has the hottest girls I have ever seen...followed by Budapest and Bratislava (I think we were just lucky to run into a girls volleyball team out celebrating).

Remember, people in Virginia don't know how to cook, especially crabs.
Well, someone knows how to cook at the Inn, because this is outstanding. I've served it as an app at a number of dinner parties to rave reviews. It's my #1 favorite app.

You would enjoy this. Sometimes, I make them and just have a few for my entree.
After I stay at your place gratis, I'll mail you a cookbook as a thank you gift.

WHAT?????????????? You have a renter in your place in VA? What's the point of having a "place" if you rent it out, pray tell?
Get him/her the hell outta there. This is ruining my plans for a January vacation, dammit.
