Smooth P


Ya gotta love a place that advertises right from the get-go "Piping Hot Polenta" and "Ice Cold Beer on Tap"... which is the case at Willow Wood Market-Cafe in Graton, in West Sonoma County. I had lunch with g. there the other day, and it was, as usual, fab. For me, Willow Wood is all about the "P" -- polenta. They have several on their menu, including my favorite: polenta with goat cheese. It's a wonderful homey, creamy, stomach-warming concoction. And what makes their polenta so, well, different is that it's so smoothhhhhh. Nice! The polenta with goat cheese comes topped with roasted red onions and house-made pesto. Your taste buds with thank you.


And the place is fun, too, with all kinds of eclectic (even for West Sonoma County) little gifts and knick-nacks. Anyway, check em out sometime. Their web site is pretty basic... but the food is great!

If you go to Graton, you also MUST try the Underwood Bar and Bistro. It's awesome, too.
