RAVE - Bistro Don Giovanni

We found this place by accident not long after we moved here from England.

We went to Nadja and Peter's perfect wedding at the Peju Province winery in Napa. We stayed at a B and B 50 yards from Bistro Don Giovanni, fell in love with it, and it became the only restaurant in the Bay Area that we make a point of driving an hour to eat at.

We based the menu for our own wedding around the lamb shank we devoured at Don Giovanni's. Whenever visitors come into town and want to visit Napa, we make sure we eat at Don G's.

Summer Sunday lunch or dinner is picture-perfect outside the Don's, and I'll have to cut it there otherwise I'll be calling him D.
