Thomas Keller is obviously best known for his upscale restaurants like French Laundry, Per Se but he also has more “casual” restaurants like Ad Hoc https://www.thomaskeller.com/yountville-california/ad-hoc/our-menu where his team is still delivering well executed dishes. We hadn’t been to Ad Hoc for more than 10 years and so it was time to return. And it still delivered quite well and we won’t wait again for such a long time to return.
