As the weather warms up and the leaves turn green, I'm reminded of one of my favorite places to visit in the Spring - Napa. After a tour of Castello di Amorosa, I used my handy Yelp app to research Italian restaurants in the area (I should probably add here that I LOVE Italian food). According to my phone, there was an Italian restaurant located about 6 miles from the castle. Less than 10 minutes later, my date and I arrived at Cook St. Helena on Main Street in St. Helena.
A quiet Friday late afternoon.
The dinner menu consisted of appetizers, salads & soups, house made pastas and entrees (including sauteed dayboat scallops, roasted airline chicken chop, braised shortrib and seared bistro filet).
Fettucine alle vongole with clams, spicy white wine broth and mixed herbs.
Spaghetti & meatballs with sun dried tomatoes, mushrooms, parmesan broth and basil. Definitely my favorite of the two dishes we tried.
Cook St. Helena is located at 1310 Main St. in Saint Helena, CA.
