Pizzeria Tra Vigne
We played hookey today -- Noel from work and me from math -- and went up to Napa with Rosie. Not to go wine tasting, but to check out various vineyards to see if they would work for a Morris dance weekend thing Noel is putting together. We left late, because we had to stop and get a certain dog a New Collar on account of her growing out of the old one in a sudden spurt of neck growth, so it was after 3pm when we stopped for an early dinner/late lunch at Pizzeria Tra Vigne.
The service was a bit off; we stood in the foyer for a while before anybody seemed to notice that we were there. But once we sat down it was as attentive as you would wish. We sat on the terrace so Rosie could sit with us, and the waitress brought her a paper dish to drink water out of. The terrace was very pleasant in the late afternoon on a workday, with dappled light and few other patrons to bother us.
The food was good: we had the garlic rolls (excellent, although the dough had been over-kneaded) and a Napoli-style pizza (red sauce, basil, cheese, with two eggs on top, on a nice crisp thin crust from the wood-fire oven). The iced tea was drinkable, not overly bitter. They messed up my decaf latte, bringing me a caffeinated one instead, but I was full enough that it didn't matter. I would definitely go back.
On the way home we stopped by Point Isabel so Rosie could run off her boredom from a day in the car.
