How to Taste Your Way Through the Napa Valley | Eater
"Set within the Carneros Resort and Spa, FARM Restaurant + Bar is an inviting Italian spot ideal for larger groups, as the menu has something for everyone. Under the direction of chef Chase Immel and pastry chef Ethan Howard, it balances familiar dishes, done impeccably — think pizzas, pastas, and fresh salads — alongside reinvented Italian-American classics like a Caesar salad with bagna cauda dressing or a cioppino featuring Salt Spring mussels, Hokkaido scallops, braised baby fennel, and Kaluga caviar. The restaurant’s brunch is also among the most creative in Napa, with standout dishes like a citrus sourdough waffle topped with lemon curd and bergamot syrup or their signature eggs Benedict, featuring smoked salmon, salsa verde, and a morita brown butter hollandaise piled atop a freshly baked Model Bakery English muffin. For a more laid-back experience, you can also head next door to Pavilion, FARM’s open-air, no-reservations-needed al fresco lounge. Complete with fire pits, lawn games, and live music on the weekends, it’s a great place to catch up after a long day of wine tasting, hiking, or mountain biking." - Lee Musho
