Dinner was fantastic! We went to Wasabi Izakaye, just a few blocks walk from our hotel. A small place, with an over-head garage door front, it was pretty, sparsely decorated and elegant. The kitchen was open to the seating area, and we could watch all the plates come up. We ordered the croquettes, which I won't even try to describe except to say we loved them, and the hand-written menu said they are the chef's favorite. Then, we had a mixed seaweed salad, and a house special sushi dish, and then Stuart ordered a tempura. Oh, it was great! The chef allowed me to take his picture...next blog!
The maestro of a really good dinner!
I wish I could have kept a copy of the menu, but it was in a pretty, hand-made book.
Tuesday morning, we headed for the wineries, but first, a stop a a quilt shop. Whoa, there won't be any shopping here! All the fabrics, the sort of quilter's cottons I use, are $17 a yard, about twice the price of cloth at home. The shop is large, the samples are pretty if uninspired, and we leave pretty quickly. Time for wine!
