If you want to be blown out of the proverbial culinary water and the French laundry is too far a drive(or reservations too difficult), then go to Single Thread (in the same building in Healdsburg that houses Journeyman Meat Co.). Asian inspired world class (should be 3 star Michelin if it isn’t already) cuisine. This is the real deal and only 30 mins away in Healdsburg. Be prepared to spend 4-500/person with drinks/taxes. Much easier to get reservations then the French Laundry but definitely needed as far ahead as possible.
