Eating and Drinking Worthy of Some Pride

By 707 correspondent, Deirdre Bourdet. People don’t generally hit Pride parties because of their fine food and wine … but when the parties are in Napa or Sonoma, quality food kinda comes with the territory. This year both Napa and Sonoma are hosting special events that celebrate the LGBT community…

Meals That Make a Difference

June 3, 2011 - This week's tablehopper: deliverance.

This week's tablehopper: deliverance.                     Namadako sunomono: seaweed, cucumber, and octopus (complete with torch-seared suckers!) in a yuzu kosho dressing at Sebo.

Helmand Palace

Review is for delivery only. Sometimes you just need to change it up from the usual Thai-pizza-Indian delivery, right? Enter HELMAND PALACE.
