Bay Wolf – Theresa takes a day off from her busy conference schedule, and we take advantage by driving north to Oakland, for a lunch with Steve Edmunds. Steve brings a few wines, and we sit on Bay Wolf’s warm and relaxing patio, noshing on their always-delicious Cal/Med creations. My trout and beet salad, drizzled with bright citrus, is utterly fresh and refreshing, while I’m transported across the Atlantic by the duck liver flan…only to be dragged back by succulent duck enchiladas. Espresso is good, if ever so slightly burnt. A fun restaurant, every time. (11/05)
