      Willis and Dry Creek and definitely worth a visit. Whether or not the $29-39 prix fix is worth vs ordering off the menu is a different story. Stark's may be the best deal considering how much restaurants charge for steaks...

      I've heard good things of the Girl and Fig but have not tried.

        1. hhc, thanks so much for posting this list. It's great to have contact info for many Sonoma County restaurants in one post.

          Sorry, I don't know whether this event is worth your time, travel, money. It would depend on both the special menu (what would you enjoy?) and the restaurant (can read reviews of many on chowhound or yelp).

          Happy eating!

              El Dorado Kitchen
              Harvest Moon
              all may be worth trying but I'd check what hte menu is first and compare it to their normal menu - most of htem have info on line
              Call me cynical but often It think these events lure you in and then you end up with the salmon/chicken menu and not a real experience of the restaurant

                1. I'm on Bovolo & Zazu's email list and rec'd this menu info today.

                  IN YOUR KITCHEN...
                  in honor of National Pig Day...
                  chocolate + bacon “baklava”
                  1 pound sliced bacon, black pig meat co. please
                  1 1/4 cup whole blanched almonds
                  3/4 cup dates, rough chop
                  1/3 cup chocolate chips
                  1 box phyllo dough
                  1/2 cup unsalted butter, melted
                  1 1/2 cups sugar
                  1 cup maple syrup
                  1/2 cup water
                  2 tablespoons bourbon
                  1 teaspoon sherry vinegar
                  1/2 teaspoon orange flower water
                  Preheat the oven to 400°. In a saute pan on medium high heat, render the bacon until golden on both sides. Strain off the fat and combine 2 tablespoons with the melted butter. In a food processor, pulse the bacon, almonds and dates until small. Remove from the food processor and stir in chocolate chips. Spray a rectangular baking dish with nonstick spray. Lay a sheet of phyllo in the baking dish, trim its edges to fit, and brush with butter/bacon fat mixture. Repeat this process with 4 more phyllo sheets and butter/bacon fat mixture. Sprinkle 1/3 of the filling over the phyllo. Repeat this process of layering 5 phyllo sheets and bacon filling two more times. Top with 5 “buttered” phyllo sheets. With a small, sharp knife, cut the baklava into diamonds. Bake the baklava for 10 minutes. Turn the oven to 325° and bake for 1 hour longer, or until nicely browned.
                  Meanwhile, combine the sugar, maple syrup, water, bourbon, vinegar, and orange flower water in a saucepan and bring to a boil. Simmer for 5 minutes, then let cool to room temperature. Pour over the hot baklava. Let stand at room temperature uncovered overnight.
