Gar Woods

Back to Gar Woods for a Wet Woody or two and the 49er game. Someday maybe a wooden boat and a lake to go with it. For now the Wet Woody does the trick.

Burger Me

If you are ever in Truckee and find yourself really hungry you have to try Burger Me. Great variety of burgers, hand cut fries and great brews on tap. If there's a heaven...

Angelino

This is a place recommended to me by Paul Carek. We went there last October for Carol's birthday. Excellent Italian in an unpretentious setting. Nice and attentive staff forthcoming with recommendations. After biking, cheering, biking again and lifting today I thought a Pizza was in order. Prosciutto and artichoke! The fresh mozzarella and heirloom tomatoes were amazing as well. Last of the season's great tomatoes...

Bouchon Bakery

Annika had an early game in Napa today so I headed for Bouchon Bakery during warm-ups. Nothing much better than a bacon cheddar scone, cappuccino and the NY Times. Most everyone in line in front of me went for something sweet... lots of action around the chocolate croissant. The place was hopping for 8:00 am on a Sunday.

A little pre-dinner!

209 gin martini with asian tuna tartar make a great start to any evening. The tuna is courtesy of Le Bernadin, one of my favorite NY restaurants. Carol and I spent, or over-spent many a wonderful evening there.
