Sonoma waterhole: El Dorado Kitchen



I can highly recommend El Dorado Kitchen, located at one of the corners of the Sonoma Plaza, a well known park with Sonoma City Hall at its center. I happened to see their executive chef, Ryan Fancher, not too long ago at one of the local public events, Salute to the Arts, where he was showcasing a few of the their abilities. He mentioned that all their organic local vegetables came from Oak Hill Farms in Sonoma. I only had time for a light starter for now, but I'll be back for dinner for sure.


Charcuterie plate - (served two people just fine for a taste)

House made rillettes (meat pâté), artisanal sausages, brie tour de marze, whole grain mustard, house made marmalade $18.00

For a drink I picked a fresh Pomegranate Martini, just right, not too sweet. They have four different cheese plates on their brunch menu, they look wonderful for another visit.
