Not sure how new this is - I may just be derelict in my duties. Biscuits is a great, afordable, and convenient mom and pop place for breakfast and lunch. Fried chicken, biscuits and bacon - oh my! I can only comment on the biscuits and gravy - superb! May have to grab a helper to try out all the choices.

Took a walk along the waterfront last night and met the most charming brothers - Ron and Anthony are as Italian American as you can imagine. Together we could have been an animated adventure movie - maybe something involving coffee and gelato. Here's their brand new shop, on the back side of the fancy new building, between Morimoto's and Fish Story. Well worth the stroll!

Wow! The NY Times. Pay no attention to the large gentleman in slide 6. He shucked 3 to Carlos' dozen.

Yes, there’s plenty of wine here. But look a bit deeper and you’ll discover seafood, sculpture and more.

Monday 9:30PM and Onoetri was packed. My how Napa dining has changed. Has anyone been to Molanari's yet? I keep forgetting to stop by.

It's Pi Day! Where's the best pie in town? Besides being 3.14 (Pi!) it is also Albert Einstein's birthday. Are there any pi/pie songs?

The Oxbow Produce will start selling juices Tuesday! A little on the pricey side - let's see if we can talk Andru down a little. Will let you know how they are tomorrow.

Had lunch at ZuZu - I kinda forgot they had lunch hours - same menu as dinner - a lot less people. Good value, small plates, well prepared food. Why don't they have a Michelin nod?! The new facade is a work of art - the interior looks brighter, but I am told everything is the same.

Liking the look of the Molinari Caffe'. This will be across the street from Vetrans Park, next to Henry's.

First - let me apologize for not logging in for so long. School - work - and Dad - all dramatic. Now for some gossip: I hear there may be a new brewery in town, one that incorporates art. Was told there was a press release announcing it but could not find it. Oenotri + Gordon Huether. My next dinner HAS to be ZuZus - still haven't tried the new menu or seen the new room.

Is Monday a holiday? Looks like the library is closed - is anyone else closed? Lincoln's BDay I believe.
