Road Tripping


I’ve run more risk eating my way across the country than in all my driving. Duncan Hines

I'm driving from Napa Valley, CA to Los Angeles, CA in September. Two of the countries food centers. And I can't figure out where I want to eat! The problems of an eater. 

This is my list of places to eat before I leave Napa. Some I've eaten at and will miss, some I just feel the need to eat at before I move. All of them I suggest you eat at if you're ever in Napa!

Cindy's Backstreet Kitchen: try the backstreet fry, the artichoke, the adult grilled cheese, the tostada, the burger, ... anything. 
Model Bakery: try the english muffins, and usually the tartine sandwich. I hear rave reviews about the iced coffee as well. 
Press: try the caesar salad, and anything off the side dish menu, and a steak. also, I hear great things about their bar. 
Bouchon Bistro: this is just a necessary stop and I haven't been there yet!
Bouchon Bakery: the only place I will eat a french macaroon. aside from maybe France, one day I'll see.
Grace's Table: fantastic food, every time, no matter what I get. Their desserts are made fresh daily, with fruits from the farmer's market or the chef's own backyard! always always always amazing. 
Mustard's: this is owned by the same chef as Cindy's, so I want to try it too!
Go Fish: see above.
I'm sure there are more, just can't think of any right now.
I'll post pictures from my visits!
