Lunch in Berkeley

Eastside Road, Healdsburg, October 12, 2009—
DOWN TO BERKELEY today for a meeting, then lunch in the café, sort of a monthly affair for us. I had the fixed-price menu: a really delicious salad, dressed simply with olive oil and salt; then pasta with mint, ricotta, and a light creamy tomato sauce. For dessert, Marsala ice cream, very delicately flavored, married perfectly to little figs cooked in wine.
