Napa · San Francisco

Farm to table, done without irony.

A note from the editor

When I traveled to Napa Valley and San Francisco, I was disappointed I hadn’t snagged a table at French Laundry far enough in advance. But armed with insider recommendations, I found the alternatives more than made up for it. Our guide maps out those same recommendations, so you can relax and enjoy the local harvest, wine and catch of the day.
