Michael Mina
Went to dinner with the gang at Michael Mina last night. It’s located in the same hotel where BlogHer was hosted and the Clock Bar I mentioned in the last post is basically an extension of the restaurant. Anyway, when we were up there a couple weeks ago, Brenda and I sort of abstractly talked about how we should go to Michael Mina and rock star that she is, she up and made reservations for us. So, Chris, Kristi, Mayank, Brenda and I headed up for an evening of cocktails and tasty foods. In the grand scheme of Bay Area Michelin-starred restaurants, I’d say Michael Mina < Gary Danko and Chez TJ. I was especially unimpressed with the wine selections, which was a bummer because I do love a wine pairing. However, the evening with friends was lovely (I heart those guys) and experiencing the food and atmopshere with other people is half the fun of a dinner like that, so, in the end, I’ve no complaints about the night…though it does make me want to eat at Gary Danko again.
