Fortunately there were already choco-philes milling about. Practically before our warm greeting, both by Chuck and the heady scent of chocolate perfuming the air, we were offered our first \"welcome\" taste, the almond cluster. And the night carried on from there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate13-764075.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate13-762672.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 1: Almond cluster.\u003cbr>Chuck has worked endlessly on the nut cluster and raised this Americana sweet to sophisticated, balanced perfection. The Charles Chocolates almond cluster is spot on when it comes to real crunch, sparse but milk chocolaty coating and sculptural integrity. With a thin caramelized glaze enrobing toasted, slivered almonds, it's the kind of candy you could eat continuously without the guilt of consuming too much chocolate. (Really, though, is there ever too much chocolate?)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"One of my pet peeves is when nuts aren't toasted enough and/or the chocolate that goes with it is so gloppy you can't taste the nut inside,\" Chuck explained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 2: Dark chocolate honey-lavendar truffle.\u003cbr>This round little truffle packs much flavor into its compact size. Infusing Organic lavendar into fresh cream, the candy is nicely balanced with rich chocolate flavor and just a whisper of the potent herb. Even the delicate flavor of the honey is not masked by the often-overpowering tastes of chocolate and lavendar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate11-730406.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate11-728801.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 3: Peanut butterfly.\u003cbr>A good play on words, and one of people's favorite tastings of the night, the butterfly is like an adult Reese's peanut butter cup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A thin dark chocolate shell bursts forth with crunchy, outspoken, natural peanut butter flavor. It's secret? Peanut butter pralinee! Mix caramel with peanuts, grind it up and you get a crunch that lasts. Our only desire was that it had a hint more salt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 4: Chocolate-covered almond.\u003cbr>Surprisingly this almond was not blanched. Although I appreciate the thought behind this choice, the papery almond skin was the last thing in the mouth and it detracted from the toasty nut taste and generous coating of dark chocolate and natural cocoa powder exterior.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 5: Mojito heart.\u003cbr>I didn't think I'd like this. I mean, I was ready to try it, with an open mind, but I just couldn't imagine how you could pull this one off, all the strong flavors: spearmint, dark Jamaican rum, lime juice, chocolate. That's what I get for thinking. This was heaven. Again, as in previous tastes, the flavors of this candy were perfectly balanced. How does he do it? Superb.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate9-794165.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate9-792371.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 6: Earl Grey truffle.\u003cbr>The flavor of tea was so subtle it was barely there in the second cream truffle of the night. Rich and delicious with a slight bergamot perfume, simple and delicious.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Admittedly following on the heels of just about every European and American candy maker in the last few years, Chuck pulled out his two versions of salted caramels. Gorgeously redolent of the Strauss butter mounted into the caramel for a rich emulsion, everyone sighed in unison after biting into the Charles Chocolates' version. Some of us diverged from the maker's deliberate choice concerning how much and where to place the trace amount of the exorbitantly expensive French salt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate2-760725.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate2-759309.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 7: Fleur de Sel caramel.\u003cbr>Here's where it all comes out and where I differ from Chuck. I love. Love. Love chocolate and salt and caramel. The Spanish know what the hell they are doing. (A staple Barcelona treat is a slice of baguette with melted chocolate, a sprinkle of salt, and a drizzle of olive oil. oh god.) Give me a drizzle of some olive oil and I'm swooning. I digress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of Chuck's newest additions to his line of chocolates differs from many of the other fleur de sel caramels I've tried by local and boutique chocolatiers. Many of them make what's known as a \"wet\" caramel; sugar cooked to caramel and then mounted with cream and or butter. Chuck has developed a \"dry\" caramel; sugar cooked with all the ingredients until the correct temperature thus creating a more toothsome, smooth and less chewy interior. I prefer the chewy wet caramel, and I just wished for more salt. Flakes of salt. I actually dipped my salty caramel in more fleur de sel. Lest you think I'm a salt junkie, I'm not. But this just was not my favorite taste of the night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 8: Chocolate-fleur del sel caramel.\u003cbr>More of the same as above but with dark chocolate added to the caramel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate5-715172.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate5-713201.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 9: Poire Williams caramel.\u003cbr>As far as I remember, and by this time I was drunk with chocolate, this was actually not part of the original tasting line-up, but Chuck was so inspired, he whipped out a tray of these lovely little delicacies, flecked with edible gold leaf.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate3-777768.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate3-775022.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 10: Marzipan chocolate.\u003cbr>For those of us closing the party we got to try a few more examples of the new line-up. Having read about Chuck's marzipan on the website and I was really hoping to try them. I love alomonds. Give me anything almond and I'm happy. Marzipan, it's right up there. And, as per his style, Chuck took that marzipan and made it his own, having a great story to back it up. While he himself is a big nut fan, Chuck has bad childhood memories of sickly-sweet marzipan. He's hated it. But with enough goading from his crew, he decided to make a marzipan confection that he could actually appreciate. Add a bit of orange zest to this, a little lemon zest to that, and voila! A perfectly balanced bittersweet chocolate-coated candy with just enough ooh-la-la to take the edge off the sweetness.

Fortunately there were already choco-philes milling about. Practically before our warm greeting, both by Chuck and the heady scent of chocolate perfuming the air, we were offered our first \"welcome\" taste, the almond cluster. And the night carried on from there.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate13-764075.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate13-762672.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 1: Almond cluster.\u003cbr>Chuck has worked endlessly on the nut cluster and raised this Americana sweet to sophisticated, balanced perfection. The Charles Chocolates almond cluster is spot on when it comes to real crunch, sparse but milk chocolaty coating and sculptural integrity. With a thin caramelized glaze enrobing toasted, slivered almonds, it's the kind of candy you could eat continuously without the guilt of consuming too much chocolate. (Really, though, is there ever too much chocolate?)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\"One of my pet peeves is when nuts aren't toasted enough and/or the chocolate that goes with it is so gloppy you can't taste the nut inside,\" Chuck explained.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 2: Dark chocolate honey-lavendar truffle.\u003cbr>This round little truffle packs much flavor into its compact size. Infusing Organic lavendar into fresh cream, the candy is nicely balanced with rich chocolate flavor and just a whisper of the potent herb. Even the delicate flavor of the honey is not masked by the often-overpowering tastes of chocolate and lavendar.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate11-730406.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate11-728801.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 3: Peanut butterfly.\u003cbr>A good play on words, and one of people's favorite tastings of the night, the butterfly is like an adult Reese's peanut butter cup.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A thin dark chocolate shell bursts forth with crunchy, outspoken, natural peanut butter flavor. It's secret? Peanut butter pralinee! Mix caramel with peanuts, grind it up and you get a crunch that lasts. Our only desire was that it had a hint more salt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 4: Chocolate-covered almond.\u003cbr>Surprisingly this almond was not blanched. Although I appreciate the thought behind this choice, the papery almond skin was the last thing in the mouth and it detracted from the toasty nut taste and generous coating of dark chocolate and natural cocoa powder exterior.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 5: Mojito heart.\u003cbr>I didn't think I'd like this. I mean, I was ready to try it, with an open mind, but I just couldn't imagine how you could pull this one off, all the strong flavors: spearmint, dark Jamaican rum, lime juice, chocolate. That's what I get for thinking. This was heaven. Again, as in previous tastes, the flavors of this candy were perfectly balanced. How does he do it? Superb.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate9-794165.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate9-792371.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 6: Earl Grey truffle.\u003cbr>The flavor of tea was so subtle it was barely there in the second cream truffle of the night. Rich and delicious with a slight bergamot perfume, simple and delicious.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Admittedly following on the heels of just about every European and American candy maker in the last few years, Chuck pulled out his two versions of salted caramels. Gorgeously redolent of the Strauss butter mounted into the caramel for a rich emulsion, everyone sighed in unison after biting into the Charles Chocolates' version. Some of us diverged from the maker's deliberate choice concerning how much and where to place the trace amount of the exorbitantly expensive French salt.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate2-760725.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate2-759309.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 7: Fleur de Sel caramel.\u003cbr>Here's where it all comes out and where I differ from Chuck. I love. Love. Love chocolate and salt and caramel. The Spanish know what the hell they are doing. (A staple Barcelona treat is a slice of baguette with melted chocolate, a sprinkle of salt, and a drizzle of olive oil. oh god.) Give me a drizzle of some olive oil and I'm swooning. I digress.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>One of Chuck's newest additions to his line of chocolates differs from many of the other fleur de sel caramels I've tried by local and boutique chocolatiers. Many of them make what's known as a \"wet\" caramel; sugar cooked to caramel and then mounted with cream and or butter. Chuck has developed a \"dry\" caramel; sugar cooked with all the ingredients until the correct temperature thus creating a more toothsome, smooth and less chewy interior. I prefer the chewy wet caramel, and I just wished for more salt. Flakes of salt. I actually dipped my salty caramel in more fleur de sel. Lest you think I'm a salt junkie, I'm not. But this just was not my favorite taste of the night.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 8: Chocolate-fleur del sel caramel.\u003cbr>More of the same as above but with dark chocolate added to the caramel.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate5-715172.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate5-713201.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 9: Poire Williams caramel.\u003cbr>As far as I remember, and by this time I was drunk with chocolate, this was actually not part of the original tasting line-up, but Chuck was so inspired, he whipped out a tray of these lovely little delicacies, flecked with edible gold leaf.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate3-777768.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate3-775022.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Taste 10: Marzipan chocolate.\u003cbr>For those of us closing the party we got to try a few more examples of the new line-up. Having read about Chuck's marzipan on the website and I was really hoping to try them. I love alomonds. Give me anything almond and I'm happy. Marzipan, it's right up there. And, as per his style, Chuck took that marzipan and made it his own, having a great story to back it up. While he himself is a big nut fan, Chuck has bad childhood memories of sickly-sweet marzipan. He's hated it. But with enough goading from his crew, he decided to make a marzipan confection that he could actually appreciate. Add a bit of orange zest to this, a little lemon zest to that, and voila! A perfectly balanced bittersweet chocolate-coated candy with just enough ooh-la-la to take the edge off the sweetness. Heaven.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Chuck Siegel is boldly entering a fashionable Bay Area scene with highly designed packaging and a line of unique candy bars and filled chocolates. He has a tough act to follow as Scharffen Berger put California on the world map of a fiercely competitive chocolate making field, and Michael Recchiuti tempted and fed us into submission with his innovative, rare and seasonal, hand dipped chocolates. It could be said that they are cornering the market.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>But with the open mind and expansive palates we Californians are known to have, I think there's room for a newbie but a goody.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003ca href=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate8-779600.jpg\">\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/uploaded_images/charles-chocolate8-777310.jpg\" alt=\"\" border=\"0\">\u003c/a>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Where to find Charles Chocolates:\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.charleschocolates.com\">Charles Chocolates\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>You can purchase a full range of chocolates on the website, including the fresh candies described above.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Due to quality and freshness considerations, the stores below generally only carry chocolate bars, righteous on their own of course...\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.biritemarket.com/\">Bi-Rite Market\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.bittersweetchocolatecafe.com/\">Bittersweet Chocolate Cafe\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.wholefoods.com/\">Whole Foods\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003cbr>Select stores only.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://pouletdeli.com/\">Poulet Deli\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Apparently he knows just about everyone in these parts, and who can resist that broad grin and wagging tail. He was perched outside the newly refurbished 7-week-old butchery and eatery of \u003cstrong>\u003ca href=\"http://www.marinsunfarms.com\">Marin Sun Farms\u003c/a>\u003c/strong>, on the edge of Point Reyes Station near Tomales Bay. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Marin Sun Farms is a small, local, family farm--owned by David Evans--that produces 100% all-natural grass-fed beef and organic chickens. Their farm is nestled in the rolling grassy hills of stunning Point Reyes National Seashore (lucky cows and chickens!). They sell their products at the new shop, various retail outlets, farmers' markets, and through many high-end restaurants. (I've been a fan of theirs for quite some time, first discovering them at the SF Ferry Plaza Farmers' Market.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two of our closest friends--Trey and Andrew--live up in Inverness on Tomales Bay, just around the corner from Point Reyes Station, and know of all the goings-on about town. So when we mentioned that my parents would be in town, they suggested we try the new Marin Sun Farms eatery for lunch. \"But what about Andrew?\" (He's a vegetarian. Well, really a \"fish\"-a-tarian. Trey assures me that there's going to be something on the menu for him. We are all skeptical.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So there we were, on a gorgeous warm blue-sky day in Point Reyes Station, petting David's dog, Bueno, and admiring (from the outside at least) what David had already done with the place. Formerly a forgettable restaurant hidden by overgrown bushes, the new place was freshly painted, trimmed, and had a cow for a sign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>[ad fullwidth]\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/marinsunfarms2.jpg\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>David greeted us himself at the counter, which displays cuts of beef and doubles as the place to order your meal. \u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/marinsunfarms3.jpg\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>A board above the counter lists the daily specials, and I was surprised to see just how many non-meat offerings there were: eggs with fresh vegetables, roasted halibut, fish and chips, and even a vegan soup. Andrew was happy. The rest of us, being the carnivores that we are, ordered an array of meaty sandwiches both from the specials board and the standard menu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/marinsunfarms1.jpg\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My dad and I went for the BBQ beef sandwich listed on the specials board: a soft, chewy bun piled high with seasoned pulled beef sauced with tangy, vinegary, slightly sweet BBQ sauce. The meat was intensely flavorful and just melted in your mouth. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it as I write this. Mine was served with a side of some of the best coleslaw I've ever had: light, crunchy, fresh, and with just enough mayonnaise-based sauce to keep it juicy. My dad opted for a side of their freshly made fries, which were also delicious, crisp and hot out of the fryer (although I had wished they were just slightly more golden in color, they still tasted fantastic).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/marinsunfarms5.jpg\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My mom and Wendy gave the farm the true test by ordering the hamburgers. The restaurant offers a 1/3 lb burger (which is what my mom ordered) and a 1/2 lb butcher burger (what Wendy ordered). The burgers were simple, perfectly seasoned, made-to-order, and served with fresh lettuce, red onion, and slices of pink beets. The eatery offers a whole array of condiments at their condiment counter, everything from chipotle mayo to a variety of mustards, to ketchup. Trey went for the Point Reyes Cheese Steak, also listed on the standard menu along with the burgers. It was enormous, served on a long crusty roll and piled high with paper-thin slices of beef, caramelized onions, and melted cheese. Trey appeared to be in meat heaven.\u003cbr>Andrew was perfectly happy with his plate of fresh organic scrambled eggs, whole-grain toast, and sauteed organic broccoli and romano beans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stuffed full, we decided to head out to the Point Reyes lighthouse, about 30 minutes away through the grasslands of Point Reyes National Seashore. We'd never been there and managed to show up just in time for their lens tour (inside the old lighthouse, set 307 steps down the cliff). On our way back to Oakland, we passed through Point Reyes Station, and decided to stop and pick up some meat for dinner the next night. Two lbs of ground chuck and a seasonal dried beef-and-pork sausage later, we had David regaling us with the history of the Point Reyes National Seashore and its \u003ca href=\"http://www.nps.gov/pore/history_ranch.htm\">\u003cstrong>alphabetized ranches\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> as well as giving us a bit of history of his own farm. It was this moment that reminded me of what I love about living in California, the passion and dedication to local, sustainable foods. We are truly lucky to live here amidst this bounty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Marin Sun Farms Butcher Shop and Restaurant\u003cbr>10905 Shoreline Highway 1 \u003cbr>Point Reyes Station, CA\u003cbr>415-663-8497\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Open Friday thru Monday 10:30am-6:30pm\u003c/p>\n\n",

They sell their products at the new shop, various retail outlets, farmers' markets, and through many high-end restaurants. (I've been a fan of theirs for quite some time, first discovering them at the SF Ferry Plaza Farmers' Market.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Two of our closest friends--Trey and Andrew--live up in Inverness on Tomales Bay, just around the corner from Point Reyes Station, and know of all the goings-on about town. So when we mentioned that my parents would be in town, they suggested we try the new Marin Sun Farms eatery for lunch. \"But what about Andrew?\" (He's a vegetarian. Well, really a \"fish\"-a-tarian. Trey assures me that there's going to be something on the menu for him. We are all skeptical.)\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>So there we were, on a gorgeous warm blue-sky day in Point Reyes Station, petting David's dog, Bueno, and admiring (from the outside at least) what David had already done with the place. Formerly a forgettable restaurant hidden by overgrown bushes, the new place was freshly painted, trimmed, and had a cow for a sign.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",

Andrew was happy. The rest of us, being the carnivores that we are, ordered an array of meaty sandwiches both from the specials board and the standard menu.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/marinsunfarms1.jpg\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My dad and I went for the BBQ beef sandwich listed on the specials board: a soft, chewy bun piled high with seasoned pulled beef sauced with tangy, vinegary, slightly sweet BBQ sauce. The meat was intensely flavorful and just melted in your mouth. I'm getting hungry just thinking about it as I write this. Mine was served with a side of some of the best coleslaw I've ever had: light, crunchy, fresh, and with just enough mayonnaise-based sauce to keep it juicy. My dad opted for a side of their freshly made fries, which were also delicious, crisp and hot out of the fryer (although I had wished they were just slightly more golden in color, they still tasted fantastic).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/marinsunfarms5.jpg\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>My mom and Wendy gave the farm the true test by ordering the hamburgers. The restaurant offers a 1/3 lb burger (which is what my mom ordered) and a 1/2 lb butcher burger (what Wendy ordered). The burgers were simple, perfectly seasoned, made-to-order, and served with fresh lettuce, red onion, and slices of pink beets. The eatery offers a whole array of condiments at their condiment counter, everything from chipotle mayo to a variety of mustards, to ketchup. Trey went for the Point Reyes Cheese Steak, also listed on the standard menu along with the burgers. It was enormous, served on a long crusty roll and piled high with paper-thin slices of beef, caramelized onions, and melted cheese. Trey appeared to be in meat heaven.\u003cbr>Andrew was perfectly happy with his plate of fresh organic scrambled eggs, whole-grain toast, and sauteed organic broccoli and romano beans.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Stuffed full, we decided to head out to the Point Reyes lighthouse, about 30 minutes away through the grasslands of Point Reyes National Seashore. We'd never been there and managed to show up just in time for their lens tour (inside the old lighthouse, set 307 steps down the cliff). On our way back to Oakland, we passed through Point Reyes Station, and decided to stop and pick up some meat for dinner the next night. Two lbs of ground chuck and a seasonal dried beef-and-pork sausage later, we had David regaling us with the history of the Point Reyes National Seashore and its \u003ca href=\"http://www.nps.gov/pore/history_ranch.htm\">\u003cstrong>alphabetized ranches\u003c/strong>\u003c/a> as well as giving us a bit of history of his own farm. It was this moment that reminded me of what I love about living in California, the passion and dedication to local, sustainable foods. We are truly lucky to live here amidst this bounty.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cem>Marin Sun Farms Butcher Shop and Restaurant\u003cbr>10905 Shoreline Highway 1 \u003cbr>Point Reyes Station, CA\u003cbr>415-663-8497\u003c/em>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Open Friday thru Monday 10:30am-6:30pm\u003c/p>\n\n\u003c/div>\u003c/p>",

Luckily, my friends arrived promptly at 5:45 p.m., a mere 15 minutes after they opened, and snagged an outside table just before the entire place filled up, and a 45-minute wait ensued. The place is tiny, but maximizes the compact space with six tables inside along with counter seating (overlooking the pizzaiolos hard at work) and four tables outside.

We decided to try three Aglianico reds, two of which were made in the classic style and one modern. All three were delicious, with their own personalities.

With six standards, Pizzeria Delfina offers an intriguing array of pies, from the classic Napoletana (with anchovies, peppers, capers, and olives) and Margherita, to a housemade sausage pizza, a cherrystone clam pie, a quattro formaggio, and a garlicky broccoli rabe pizza studded with ricotta.

The puffy cornichone (the edge or lip of the pizza) was airy and light, yet with a thin crisp exterior lightly sprinkled with salt.

Unfortunately, there was very little sausage on the pizza (believe me, I wasn't hoping for a meat-lover's pizza, but just a bit more of the amazing sausage) and the cheese was unevenly placed on only three out of six pieces, leaving some pieces a bit naked (and us vying for cheesy slices).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>All in all, I really can't complain.

After moving to the Bay Area five years ago from Sydney, Australia, Betty landed a job as a line cook at Chez Panisse. In her off-hours she peddled her baked goods at the Walnut Creek, Alameda, and Danville farmers markets. Finally, in 2002, she decided to pursue the bakery biz full-time, and just a few weeks ago, opened her own bakery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/bakesalebetty1.jpg\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Located on the corner of Telegraph Avenue and 51st Street in Oakland's up-and-coming (or has it already arrived) Temescal District, Betty's new bakeshop is awash in bright hues of red and green, with retro ironing boards displaying her wares. Lined up along the countertop were rows and rows of her famous chewy ginger cookies and her succulent, dense, moist banana bread (which by the way is probably the best banana bread I've ever tasted).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/bakesalebetty2.jpg\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the back, as Betty and fellow bakers sampled what looked to be a heavenly strawberry shortcake, we tasted delicious nut-free brownies. Chewy, cakey, with the perfect crunchy outer crust, these are what brownies should taste like. Betty also sells lemon bars, rhubarb scones, sticky date pudding (another one of my all-time faves!), and oatmeal-raisin cookies (with walnuts). Soon to come are cakes and pies; she even plans to use special pie warmers so that customers can leave the bakery with a nice warm pie.

After moving to the Bay Area five years ago from Sydney, Australia, Betty landed a job as a line cook at Chez Panisse. In her off-hours she peddled her baked goods at the Walnut Creek, Alameda, and Danville farmers markets. Finally, in 2002, she decided to pursue the bakery biz full-time, and just a few weeks ago, opened her own bakery.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/bakesalebetty1.jpg\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>Located on the corner of Telegraph Avenue and 51st Street in Oakland's up-and-coming (or has it already arrived) Temescal District, Betty's new bakeshop is awash in bright hues of red and green, with retro ironing boards displaying her wares. Lined up along the countertop were rows and rows of her famous chewy ginger cookies and her succulent, dense, moist banana bread (which by the way is probably the best banana bread I've ever tasted).\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003cimg src=\"http://www.kqed.org/weblog/food/bakesalebetty2.jpg\">\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>In the back, as Betty and fellow bakers sampled what looked to be a heavenly strawberry shortcake, we tasted delicious nut-free brownies. Chewy, cakey, with the perfect crunchy outer crust, these are what brownies should taste like. Betty also sells lemon bars, rhubarb scones, sticky date pudding (another one of my all-time faves!), and oatmeal-raisin cookies (with walnuts). Soon to come are cakes and pies; she even plans to use special pie warmers so that customers can leave the bakery with a nice warm pie. Just like mom used to make and wouldn't let you have.\u003c/p>\n\u003cp>\u003c/p>\u003c/div>",
