So it’s that time.  Ryan, my brother from another mother (notice the ginger locks), is getting hitched.  He and Jen are getting married in Sonoma and I wouldn’t miss it for the world.  I’m heading out there for a Wednesday to Sunday trip and taking my mom along for the culinary ride.  The greatest of friends, my mama, wine, food, food, wine.  Srlsy.

Other than wedding shenanigans, I have two restaurants on the books: Cafe La Haye and Foreign Cinema.  Cafe La Haye came highly recommended through John Baydale, the president of Uchi Restaurants (thanks again for that one, Molly!!).

And Foreign Cinema was unanimously suggested by three of my ultimate foodie friends that frequent the San Fran area.

I cannot, cannot wait for this adventure to begin.  See you soon, Ryan & Jen!
