Napa: Darioush


Celebrated a short workweek by taking a day trip to Napa on Friday with my hubby and visiting sister-in-law.  I've mentioned Darioush before, but this time I made sure to take a few snapshots.  Darioush will always be my absolute favorite winery, such elegant grandeur and such delicious wine!

Other highlights from the weekend?  Cobb's Comedy Club for the Broken Lizards (of Beerfest and SuperTroopers fame), Frjtz truffle fries with white artichoke truffle ketchup, Paul K Mediterranean cuisine (although I was mildly disappointed with my duck dish), and a savory bowl of pho (Vietnamese beef noodle soup) from Out The Door on Bush Street:


How was your weekend?

  2. Lovely pictures!!! I might have to put Napa on my list of places to visit in CA (but it will have to come after San Fran, I have yet to visit).

    Mmm, pho. :) Unfortunately, our weather is still rather warm, so pho has to wait a while before I can enjoy a yummy bowl.

  6. What a beautiful place! Looks like you have warmed up to your new Nikon! I'm thinking of switching over from my Canon, too, but...

    How do you like the pho soup from OTD? It's so strange because I love their food, but I don't like any of the broth soups they make.
