Eating is a necessity
but
cooking is an art.

Restaurants are not just places to eat. They are also places where memories are made and stories are shared.
One of my favorite restaurants is Esin, located in Danville, California. The food is farm to table fresh and delicious.
We always order the flatbread starter (lower left) to share. This dish changes seasonally. This one had local peaches, caramelized onion, mozzarella, blue cheese, arugula, basil, toasted pecans and balsamic reduction. So good!
I ordered the fish of the day, which was Grilled Wild Salmon with a beet puree, couscous and fresh corn, wild mushrooms, then topped with fennel and slices of orange. It was cooked to perfection.
The top photo was a Grilled Cider Brined Duroc Pork Chop and the bottom photo is a Hanger Steak Frites Brandt Prime Beef.
I do not eat meat but everything I have ever ordered has been delicious, including salads, soups and desserts. I just wish Esin wasn't 90 minutes from my home. Nice on Black.
A great collage! The dishes look so delicious, and I love your list of ingredients with the flatbread and the wild salmon! What an amazing restaurant! Fav (p.s. I don't eat meat either- I see that's not a problem at all at this place!)
@365projectorgheatherb No issues! There are a lot of vegetarian options. The Caramelized Onion Soup with cheese and crouton is even vegetarian and it’s delicious!
Many thanks for your comments. I love to go to this restaurant. I always feel like I have had a fresh and delicious meal. Whenever I go over to the Bay Area to visit with my traveling ship mates, we eat here. We celebrate our birthdays here too. The owner even dropped by the table to wish me a Happy Birthday last May. I feel happier and healthier when I leave. :)
