Went to see local favorite Cake (the band) out at a winery in Amador County. We hit V before the show. While it WAS 90-something, we lucked out that the weekends was overcast most of the time, which meant outside was warm but not unbearable.
To start, my partner ordered a blueberry lemon drop
She pronounced it “delightful” and “very refreshing”, and liked it so much she got a second. That’s a rare endorsement.
I got the steak frittes, a perfectly done 8 oz NY strip with crispy fries and a pool of bearnaise, where butter goes if it’s been good.
The partner got salmon bearnaisse (I sense a theme) served over polenta cakes with a nice bright dandelion green salad. Perfectly cooked fish. Herb-y crispy polenta.
Thumbs up. If you’re in town checking out the wineries, this is a lovely choice for a meal.
