Perbacco is currently running a burrata appetizer with roasted squash and cavalo nero pesto, balsamic vinegar. I haven't had this incarnation but have had other presentations of the cheese there and they have been very good. Since I think of burrata more in the summer, I like the pairing with the seasonal flavors and would try it in a heart beat.

re: tomatoaday
Boot and Shoe Service in Oakland has an excellent burrata with toast and maybe radishes,figs,beets and Olio Nuovo on it's menu every few days.Since freshness and newly made is the key,when tasting at Whole Foods,the CA Gioia brand won out over the from Italy brand for sweetness,creaminess and freshness.I got the Di Stephano burrata,wrapped in green ribbons(From So Cal,but Puglia style where burrata comes from)during the holidays at Cosentino's along with the antipasti,salumi and other Christmas dinner ingredients.The buratta was sublime!

I think most restaurants around here get it from Gioia, though the frequency of delivery matters as Robert pointed out. I have enjoyed the mushrooms+burrata app they have had a Wood Tavern recently, though I am not sure it is still on the menu.

I haven't had it for a few months, so not absolutely sure it's still on the menu, but I had the most heavenly burrata with rustic bread, some baby arugula, and a quenelle of what they called "beet pesto" (which was simply pureed beets and olive oil) drizzled with just a little olive oil at Boon Eat+Drink in Guerneville. The combination was just simply perfect. I've had it twice, and both times the burrata was perfectly fresh.
