The Revival of downtown Napa (part 3-Dinner) It’s all the rage!

Dinner in Downtown Napa overlooking the Napa river. We started the night at Fish Story for drinks at the bar and ended up dining al fresco in the patio overlooking the river. One of the reasons we decided to give this place a try is because they follow the Monterey Aquariums Seafood Watch guide while shopping for the fish used in their cooking.

After laboring over the menu choices, I decided to try the crab salad. The portion was perfect, the crab was fresh, and at the end of my main, I had just enough room for desert.

At the reastaurant I discovered this restaurant is part of the Lark Creek Restaurant Group, co-founded in 1989 by Napa Valley residents Michael and Leslye Dellar, chef Bradley Ogden and Jody Ogden, consists of ten restaurants including: The Tavern at Lark Creek; One Market® Restaurant; Lark Creek Steak; Lark Creek Walnut Creek; Parcel 104®; Bradley Ogden™; Moreton Fig™; and multiple Yankee Pier® restaurants.

After our meal we walked down and saw a huge crowd at some of the other restaurants as well. Well….there’s always next time!

Hodo Soy Beanery Grand Opening!

Annie Tegner — Mon, 28 Dec 2009 20:31:00 GMT

I was recently able to be a part of the first inaugural tour of the Hodo Soy Beanery in Oakland.

The new facility is located at 2923 Adeline St. in Oakland. Hodo means "Good Bean" - highlighting the companies philosophy of creating good product, good community, and good health. All of their soy comes from Farms here in the US, and is all organic certified.

This is Yuba, the skin of Tofu. They use a process of steaming to create the skin. This is an energy saving, labor intensive practice, but well worth the investment for the results it yields and the long-term benefit for the environment.

After the factory tour, we got to meet Minh Tsai, the Tofu Master, who's passion for his product and overall friendliness were evident through and through. We got to sample many delicious dishes created using Tofu, and even tried Tofu "hot off the press" -- the freshest Tofu I've ever tasted.

Tours are held every other Wednesday at 12:30. The $10 is well worth the experience and the taste! Be a part of this exciting new facility that is contributing to the local Oakland scene in more ways than one, its definitely the "good bean".
