Being that I am another devoted Thomas Keller fan, I try to make my way to his restaurants whenever I am vacationing nearby.  I have dined at all three Bouchon locations and enjoyed each one!  The decor of each is very similar as is the ambiance.  All three spots have the wonderful French Bistro bustle during the day, I just love that! I love Bouchon for lunch or better, brunch.  Amazing.  The food is consistent amongst all three locations, which I find outstanding.  That's not an easy task to accomplish!

I think I love Yountville... Everything is so quaint, and peaceful.  And in the middle of it all, is Ad Hoc.  Ad Hoc is exactly that, each day the menu changes, one meal is served to the entire crowd, and the menu is constantly changing.  They serve everything from Memphis Style Barbecue to Veal Porterhouse.   Every other Monday, they serve their famous fried chicken, unfortunately we missed out on this opportunity!  

Review - Bouchon Bakery

Bouchon Bakery

As soon as you walk towards Thomas Keller's Bouchon Bakery, you can smell the sweetness wafting by.  Outside is an adorable ice cream tricycle.  I know I am far away from the city when I am in Yountville. 

Review - Bottega Ristorante

On a recent trip to Yountville, My SO and I decided to try Bottega, we loved the outdoor patio overlooking the garden area.  We opted to sit outside which was perfect.  It wasn't too hot out, it wasn't too cold.   I didn't realize that Bottega was Food Network chef Michael Chiarello's Napa Valley restaurant, until after our dinner when we visisted Napa Style, the store right next to the restaurant.
