Troubadour Bread & Bistro

"Owners Melissa Yanc and Sean McGaughey worked together at SingleThread (as a baker and sous-chef, respectively), but the married couple left fine dining to forge their own path—though they haven’t strayed too far. This winsome little spot is a sandwich shop and bakery by day (the pair also run popular nearby Quail and Condor), but the creative itch led them to offer an intriguing prix fixe menu at night, interpreting classic French cuisine through a contemporary California lens. Served on gorgeous antique plates that look as though they might have been pillaged from the tomb of Escoffier, the likes of asparagus chartreuse with trout roe and halibut à la Normande with lobster mousseline are especially becoming, and the charming service doesn’t hurt either." - Michelin Inspector

"A Healdsburg boulangerie-turned-bistro opened by Sean and Melissa McGaughy that pairs bakery craft with a contemporary French tasting philosophy. By day it operates as a bakery offering croissants, cannelés and sourdough; by night it shifts to a seven-course prix-fixe menu showcasing local ingredients in refined preparations such as escargot, steak tartare, and a sea bream bouillabaisse with mussels, rouille, and cured citrus dashi—dishes intended to be matched with a Chardonnay for a balanced, complex pairing." - AFAR

"If you want to grab something quick to have on hand before hitting the wineries, drop by Troubadour Bread & Sandwiches. The excellent bread is baked in-house, and the thick sandwiches filled with options like pastrami, chicken salad, and goat cheese with pesto and vegetables are sturdy enough to last a few hours while you visit a few wineries. They’re perfect for a picnic lunch between wine-tasting stops or to nibble on as you wait in traffic on the drive home. It wouldn’t hurt to snag a loaf of sourdough to bring home, either." - allison green
