The French Laundry - Napa area. Truly world class food and total dining experience. Beyond expensive and ya gotta know somebody to even get a reservation .... fortunately I knew somebody, that knew somebody.
Gary Danko - San Francisco. It is hard to be better than The French Laundry .... but Gary Danko's just might be.
Sierra Mar - Big Sur. Tucked into a cliff overlooking the Pacific Ocean it has a spectacular view and food to match!
I am sensing a distinct Bay area theme ... so I will switch gears.
Prejean's - Lafayette La. Horrible tacky tourist trap decor .... stellar cajun / creole food.
Smitty's Market - Lockhart Tx What smoked bbq is suppose to taste like .... brisket is so good it will make a grown man cry.
My Granny's pinto beans/with ham and fried corn bread .... old fashion heaven. I am getting close, got the beans&ham down and the corn bread is real real close.
