GENERAL's Daughter is GREAT!! We ate there for the second time this year last night, and the food was even better than before. There's a new menu (part one of it, old menu favorites are still there as well.) Plus Chef Preston was most gracious and a pleasure to talk with, as was his wife Nichole. Just an idea of what we had: Appetizers -- tuna tartare, very fresh and delicious with slices of ahi tuna on the side; fabulous sweetbreads in bourbon sauce with creamy something in the sauce. Main dishes -- carbonara style pasta with quail egg yolk you mix in yourself; pasta pillows with foie gras filling and sauce; shrimp with creamy polenta in a wonderful spicy brown sauce; mediterranean sea bass with artichokes; lamb sirloin with vegetables; plus dessert. mmmmmmmmmmmmm And yes, there were only 2 of us! But we managed to do it. At this point it's probably our favorite Sonoma restaurant, and we like a LOT of them. The chef has high ambitions for this new venture, and we think he will succeed if this food is any indication. The place itself is lovely as well. GO!!
