It took Michelle Wood nearly two years to reopen the former Jimtown Store after purchasing the Alexander Valley property in 2023. Nestled along a quiet stretch of Highway 128, the 132-year-old general store has been a gourmet pit stop for meandering cyclists, curious tourists and vineyard workers for decades. Its weathered plank walls, well-worn wood floors and shady front porch have graced countless Instagram feeds.

In early June, Wood debuted Jimtown & Then Sum, merging her longtime dim sum catering business with the Jimtown legacy. Fans of her handmade dumplings eagerly anticipated shu mai, potstickers and bao at the new location.

But when the doors opened, there was no dim sum at Jimtown & Then Sum.

The daily process of folding, filling and steaming dumplings proved too demanding in the early days of operation. But three weeks after this month’s grand opening — with the new business running smoothly — they are now on the menu.

From 11 a.m., the lunch menu features a section dedicated to steamed dumplings, spring rolls, bao buns and a poke bowl, served until sold out, which typically happens within a few hours. The menu also includes a barbecue pork banh mi sandwich and matcha cheesecake bites with honey and ginger.

Traditional deli sandwiches, including Italian subs, muffulettas and chicken curry, are also available, along with morning pastries and cookies.

On a recent Friday during the lunch rush, customers hovered over Wood’s Asian-inspired menu with curiosity. The most frequent question: “What’s an open-faced steamed bao?” (It’s a fluffy, sweet cousin to the taco.)

By 11:45 a.m., Wood was busy steaming dumplings as the dim sum orders began streaming in.

Standout dishes include her signature shu mai ($14 for six), filled with seasoned pork and shrimp; potstickers ($17 for six), stuffed with vegetables, chicken, or kimchi and tofu; and the open-faced steamed bao ($15), topped with braised pork belly or tofu and finished with hoisin sauce.

There’s also Vietnamese-style spring rolls with rice noodles, Thai basil and shrimp, served with sweet chili or peanut sauce ($14 for three), or veggie-only rolls ($12 for three). A poke bowl with seasoned ahi tuna over sticky rice is $23.

But it’s the pillowy barbecue pork bao buns ($6 each) that make me weak in the knees. Light, squishy and slightly sweet, they’ve got all the starchy satisfaction of Wonder bread, only better. Other fillings include Thai basil chicken, or broccoli and tofu.

Early birds and morning bicyclists will find pastries like apple-cinnamon coffee cake, muffins and scones, along with avocado toast, a breakfast burrito and coffee drinks.

But it’s Wood’s dim sum I’m coming for — finally.

Bringing kids to a white-napkin restaurant is like hosting a tea party in a tornado. No one’s having fun when chicken nuggets are flying, a wine glass just swan-dived off the table and your 3-year-old is screaming for her lost stuffed animal.

Chef David Baeli and his wife, Elise, feel your pain. With a youngster of their own, the couple have created a restaurant they tried, but failed to find. The Burrow in downtown Healdsburg offers a chef-driven menu for parents, a kid-tested menu for the little ones and a kitted-out play area with toys and books to keep the peace — or at least peace of mind for everyone.

The small café, located at the former Wurst restaurant, is off to a solid start after its June debut. On a recent weekend, the patio was filled with enthusiastic children eating chicken fingers, mac and cheese and burgers. Parents didn’t seem fazed when a stray scream or fussy baby interrupted the stink eye-free zone.

Baeli co-owned Hops and Hominy in San Francisco, known for its Southern-style cuisine (now closed). The couple moved north to Elise’s hometown for a more family-centered life with their 3-year-old son (the chief taste-tester for the kids menu).

Baeli’s opening menu features chips and smoked salmon dip with crème fraîche ($9), duck fat potatoes with garlic aioli ($14), peach and burrata salad ($18), a juicy grass-fed smashburger ($19) and upscale grilled salmon with coconut rice ($24) or flat iron steak ($28) — affordable by Healdsburg standards. The brunch menu includes eggs with polenta ($18), chicken and waffles ($16) and a breakfast sandwich ($17).

The children’s menu has a burger, grilled chicken or salmon, chicken tenders (all $14), mac and cheese ($12) and the ever-popular buttered noodles ($10).

Ice cream floats ($8), cake ($9) and an ice cream sandwich ($8) are excellent bribes for good table manners. An ever-changing beer lineup from independent breweries and a brief wine list keep adults happy.

The kitchen is still evolving, and not every dish on my first visit was a home run, but the same could be said for the constant compromises of parenting. Somehow it always works out in the end, and I’m confident this cozy café will make us all proud.

Open from 11 a.m. to 9 p.m. Wednesday through Friday; 10 a.m. to 9 p.m. Saturday; and 10 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Sunday. 22 Matheson St., Healdsburg, 707-955-0132, theburrowhb.com

The post The Burrow Opens in Healdsburg With Family-Friendly Food and Atmosphere appeared first on Sonoma Magazine.

Although Alexander Valley’s Jimtown and Then Sum market and deli opened two weeks ago with coffee, morning pastries, sandwiches, salads and sushi rolls, owner Michelle Wood held off on adding her coveted dim sum to the roadside market’s menu — until now.

This weekend, the revamped market will mark its official grand opening with a $70 dim sum plate from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m. Sunday. The meal includes six items from Wood’s newly launched dim sum menu.

“The menu will highlight our dim sum service and what is to come,” said Wood, who added that a limited selection of popular dim sum items will be available on weekdays.

Throughout the weekend, the store will also offer a limited menu of coffee, pastries and grab-and-go items. On Saturday, Wood will serve a ticketed barbecue menu ($70) with assorted meats and sides. Jimtown will be closed Friday.

Wood owns the catering company Dim Sum and Then Sum, known for its handmade Chinese dumplings, steamed buns and spring rolls inspired by family recipes. She purchased the property nearly 18 months ago and formally took over the historic Jimtown Store from longtime owner Carrie Brown in late 2023.

The store on Highway 128 first opened in 1893 as a post office, general store and gathering place for Alexander Valley residents.

Jimtown’s modern era began in 1991, when Brown and her late husband, John Werner, took over the space. It became an offbeat destination for visitors, who enjoyed Brown’s eclectic collection of toys, candies and housewares. Locals came for the sandwiches, Brown’s famous Chain Gang Chili and neighborhood gossip.

The post Spoonbar in Healdsburg Welcomes New Acclaimed Chef appeared first on Sonoma Magazine.

Healdsburg’s Molti Amici, which closed abruptly in November last year amid financial struggles and embezzlement accusations, will reopen this spring with a fresh vision and a new name – Bistro Lagniappe.

Chef Jacob Harth is leading the charge at the new Healdsburg bistro. He first captured local attention last September at a pop-up preview of Winnie’s, a seafood restaurant centered around responsibly sourced West Coast seafood.

While Winnie’s is still in development, Bistro Lagniappe is set to make its debut this spring with a menu focused on wood-fired dishes inspired by both California and French countryside cooking.

“Bistro Lagniappe will showcase California countryside cooking inspired by the rural routiers (roadside restaurants) and bistros of France, informed by the best ingredients from Sonoma County,” Harth said.

Though the menu is still in the works, Harth described his cooking style as “minimalist and straightforward, allowing our exceptional local artisans to shine.”

A new chapter

The Bistro Lagniappe announcement ends months of speculation surrounding the future of the 330 Healdsburg Ave. space, which had been vacant since Molti Amici’s closure. It comes in the wake of the dismissal of a lawsuit filed by Molti Amici co-owner Jason Cutrer against the shuttered restaurant’s founder, Jonny Barr. The lawsuit had sought more than $1.5 million in damages.

In a joint statement released April 11, Cutrer and Barr said, “While we will not be working together moving forward, we have worked collaboratively to reach an agreement that enables each of us to focus on our respective paths and future endeavors.”

Harth said Thursday that Cutrer is no longer in the public-facing role he assumed after the closure of Molti Amici, but that Cutrer and other Molti Amici investors will retain ownership stakes in Bistro Lagniappe.

The menu

The Healdsburg Avenue space will give Harth a key tool to use in crafting his cuisine. A large wood-fired oven, which can reach temperatures of 1,200 degrees, is a centerpiece of the expansive patio behind the restaurant.

The oven was built by chef Ari Rosen when Campo Fina occupied the space. (The Italian restaurant closed after 10 years in 2022, with a downtown Healdsburg funeral parade mourning its loss. It was forced to shutter due to skyrocketing rent, according to Rosen.)

“It’s a powerful heat source and has been used in people’s homes for hundreds of years,” Harth said.

Though brick ovens are a favorite of pizza-makers, the Lagniappe menu will feature comfort dishes like cassoulet, gratins, roasted oysters and wood-fired fish – no pizzas.

A chef with national recognition

Before taking over the former Molti Amici location, Harth earned national acclaim for his Portland-based restaurant, Erizo, which was named one of Eater’s “16 Best New Restaurants of 2019.”

Erizo’s menu was built around a sustainable seafood tasting experience, with an emphasis on invasive species such as purple sea urchins, bycatch and seasonal seafood from sustainable fisheries.

Taking sustainability a step further, Harth even obtained a commercial fishing license to harvest rarely used seafood, like sea grapes and gooseneck barnacles.

Bistro Lagniappe will initially be open for dinner, with plans to expand into weekend brunch down the line.

Navigating the Healdsburg food scene can be perilous for new restaurant owners. Locals have strong feelings about the lack of affordable, family-friendly restaurants in the upscale tourist mecca, while restaurant owners face steep rents and skyrocketing food costs that can easily break them.

The new owners of The Burrow (formerly The Wurst) are trying to straddle the line with their forthcoming restaurant — and after seeing a draft of the menu, things look hopeful.

David Baeli and his wife, Elise (a Healdsburg local), are transforming the longtime burger and sausage palace into a casual café with approachable yet inspired appetizers, salads and sandwiches, a handful of entrées and a weekend brunch menu. The couple also focuses on a strong craft beer selection with “only independent-certified brewers.”

This isn’t their first restaurant rodeo. David Baeli co-owned Hops and Hominy in San Francisco, known for its Southern-style cuisine (now closed). The couple moved north for a more family-centered life and now have a 3-year-old (the chief taste-tester for the kids’ menu). Baeli hopes to open the new restaurant in May. Follow their progress at theburrowhb.com or instagram.com/theburrow_healdsburg.

The Wurst will continue as a catering operation under former owner Melissa McDowell. Stay tuned for more details. 22 Matheson St., Healdsburg.

The post New Restaurant Taking Over The Wurst in Healdsburg appeared first on Sonoma Magazine.

Wine Country is known for its world-class cuisine. Now, two of the region’s Michelin-starred restaurants also are getting recognized for the amounts of cash diners shell out to experience their food.

SingleThread in Healdsburg and The French Laundry in Yountville are on a new list of  the “10 Most Expensive Restaurants in the U.S.” compiled by GoBankingRates, a personal finance publication.

SingleThread, Healdsburg

SingleThread, a three-Michelin-starred restaurant and inn in downtown Healdsburg, offers a 10-course Kaiseki-style tasting menu that ranges from $425 to $500 per person, depending on the day of the week.

Opened by Kyle and Katina Connaughton nearly a decade ago, the restaurant quickly rose to prominence — earning two Michelin stars in 2018 and achieving the coveted third star the following year. In 2024, it was recognized on the prestigious World’s 50 Best Restaurants list for the fourth time in a row.

Nearby, the Connaughtons operate a 24-acre working farm that supplies the restaurant with seasonal ingredients central to its Japanese-influenced, hyper-local approach. Above the restaurant, a five-room inn offers guests an immersive experience, recently earning Three Keys from the Michelin Guide in recognition of its elevated hospitality.

Restaurant reservations are released at 9 a.m. on the first of each month via OpenTable, for the following month’s availability. A prepayment in full is required to confirm a booking, and cancellations or rescheduling are not permitted. Guests can also pre-select beverage pairings through OpenTable or order them tableside during their visit.

The French Laundry, Yountville

Just across the county line in Napa Valley, The French Laundry in Yountville offers a lavish multi-course tasting menu — one of the most iconic dining experiences in the country.

Opened in 1994 by acclaimed chef Thomas Keller, The French Laundry is housed in a historic stone building that once served as a 1920s French steam laundry. The 1,600-square-foot space dates back to 1900, when it was constructed as a saloon. Keller discovered the property in the early 1990s while searching for a space to realize his dream of bringing refined French cuisine to Napa Valley.

The French Laundry’s menu changes daily but remains steadfastly committed to classical French techniques and seasonal ingredients of the highest quality. It has held Michelin’s highest honor — three stars — since 2007, helping to make Keller the only American-born chef to simultaneously operate two restaurants with that distinction: The French Laundry in California and Per Se in New York.

In 2023, English food review and recipe website Lovefood named it California’s “most famous” restaurant, and recommended it as one of the 50 places in the country that diners should experience at least once in their lives.

Guests can choose from several dining options, all requiring prepaid reservations. GoBankingRates stated The French Laundry’s tasting menu starts at $390 per person; however, the restaurant’s Tock page has reservations starting at $425 per person. Private dining spaces are also available for $600 per person. For an even more exclusive experience, The French Laundry offers occasional special events, such as its Black Truffle & Caviar Dinner, priced at $1,200 per person.

The post Two Wine Country Restaurants Rank Among Most Expensive in US appeared first on Sonoma Magazine.

When chef Dustin Valette opened his namesake restaurant just off the Healdsburg Plaza in 2015, the luxe food scene of the northern Sonoma County town was still in its infancy.

Michelin had all but forsaken Healdsburg after the 2012 closure of Cyrus. SingleThread hadn’t officially opened, and wine magnate Bill Foley’s ventures, including Brass Rabbit and Goodnight’s Steakhouse, weren’t yet on the horizon. Zin Restaurant, owned by Jeff and Susan Mall and one of the early adopters of farm-to-table cuisine, had closed the previous year, leaving a gaping hole in the fledgling foodie town.

Valette saw an opening — literal and figurative — in the former Zin space and an opportunity to carry on the Malls’ ingredient-driven ethos. It didn’t hurt that his grandfather owned a bakery at the location 75 years ago.

In late 2014, the Healdsburg native left his position as chef de cuisine of Charlie Palmer’s Dry Creek Kitchen and dove headlong into restaurant ownership with his brother Aaron Garzini. The dream was to create a casual yet elegant space where diners could sit at the bar with a glass of wine and an appetizer or take an hourslong journey into the “trust me” tasting menu.

In March, Valette marks its 10th anniversary as a Wine Country dining staple that has weathered fires, floods and COVID-19. To celebrate, the restaurant will host a series of wine dinners March 10-16, with favorite dishes from the last decade.

I sat down with chef Valette (who also owns The Matheson and Roof 106 in Healdsburg) to discuss his decade in Healdsburg’s food scene.

How would you describe Valette?

Valette was born from two brothers’ lifelong dream of creating a unique dining experience in our hometown Healdsburg. Our goal is to provide a canvas for local farmers, winemakers and artisans to showcase their crafts.

What would you tell yourself 10 years ago about owning a restaurant?

You’re gonna get gray hair and it’s going to be the most stressful and most fulfilling thing in your life besides your children.

What dish did you know you had to have on the opening menu?

Scallops en croute. It’s a dish I created at Dry Creek Kitchen. Everyone would come from all around for it. I just served it on Saturday to Guy Fieri. The scallop is steamed and it really shows its beautiful simplicity. It’s got sweet, sour, salty and acidic flavors — it’s fricking terrific. That, and the charcuterie we make in-house, we can’t take off the menu, they’re such staples of the restaurant.

What were the highest and lowest points over the last 10 years?

The lowest point was on Jan. 16, 2022. We had weathered the COVID storm and kept all our employees, but we ran out of money. I sold my car, took out a loan and mortgaged everything we had. I told myself we had until Feb. 1 for things to level out or we would have to close. We reopened for regular dining service on Jan. 17 of that year.

The highest point was when we got a Wine Enthusiast Top 100 nod the year we opened. It showed me very quickly that this crazy idea of two brothers bucking all the trends would work.

What celebrity would you love to have at the restaurant?

Chef Thomas Keller from The French Laundry.

What food trend from 10 years ago would you love never to see again?

Inedible garnishes on the plate.

If you weren’t a chef, what would you be?

A winemaker. I would love to tell the story of an entire year through a glass of wine. I love making garage wine and started a commercial wine brand. (Valette works with star winemakers David Ramey, Tom Rochioli, Bob Cabral and Jesse Katz to produce limited-edition Valette wines.)

What are your hopes for the next 10 years?

I would love to celebrate 20 years in this location. I hope we can continue on our path, telling the story of Healdsburg, Sonoma County and its artisans and makers who love their jobs. I want to continue that passion and sense of place.

How has Healdsburg changed in the last 10 years?

Healdsburg has changed for the better. People come from all over to visit and get a sense of our lives here, be part of our community and live the dream we have every day we wake up. But how it’s changed for the worse is the same reason. We have to share our heaven with everyone else. It’s the same answer. If you have a cake, the best part is to share it with everyone.

Your dad, Bob, is a regular fixture at the restaurant, visiting with diners and sharing stories of his life as a former Cal Fire pilot. Why is that?

One of my favorite parts of the restaurant is that my dad spends nights talking to guests, enjoying himself and making people happy. My dad was focused on protecting our community as a firefighter but never got to reap the rewards. I watch my dad with a glass of wine at the restaurant, and it’s nice to see him sit back and enjoy people.

What keeps you in this business?

For 10 years, we have created a place to come and relax and forget about the worries of life — the crazy world outside our doors. You can sit here and have a bourbon at the bar; it feels like coming home. I want to create a place that gives people warmth in their souls. What we do puts such a big smile on my face. I can’t shake how lucky I am.

The post Valette Celebrates Its First Decade in Healdsburg appeared first on Sonoma Magazine.

Healdsburg is known for many things, but breakfast isn’t one of them. Despite a wealth of fine dining options for lunch and dinner, there are precious few spots to tuck into a hearty pancake breakfast, eggs Benedict or morning mimosa.

Acorn Café is staking a syrup-soaked claim on that void with its over-the-top takes on breakfast, brunch and lunch. The lineup includes tiramisu French toast, a brown butter hollandaise Benedict and quite possibly the world’s most inspired fried chicken sandwich.

A tasty low and no-alcohol and cocktail menu and wine list create a Sunday brunch feel even on weekday mornings.

“Here you can detox, re-tox and repeat,” said chef/owner Beryl Adler. The longtime fine-dining chef has worked in far-off locales like Bali, Australia and the Caribbean, but saw an opening for a sit-down café in Healdsburg dedicated to morning and early afternoon eats.

“In my experiences throughout Asia and Australia, I saw that breakfast can be fun, colorful and nourishing, and that’s what I wanted to bring here,” he said.

Acorn Cafe is a Healdsburg gem for lunch and brunch

The former Oakville Grocery has been reborn as a joyful, light-filled downtown gathering spot decorated in sunkissed oranges and blues with modern wood accents. There’s plentiful seating inside and on the patio, which is warmed by a built-in fireplace.

And though Adler’s globe-trotting days are fond memories, he loves the small-town charm of Healdsburg, where he can spend time with his wife and young daughter. As a dad, he was emphatic that the café welcome families, offering a special children’s menu, book-borrowing and a toy corner.

“There’s something touching about this tight-knit community of 12,000 people. It’s got that small-town charm and ultra-luxury feel, the best of both worlds,” Adler said. “That’s why we wanted to call it home.”

Best Bets

Fried Chicken Sando, $21: After suffering from a litany of distressingly over- or undercooked fried chicken sandwiches, I’m cautious about ordering them. Adler’s, however, had my attention with a Goguette Bread togarashi-topped bun (made specially for Acorn), housemade teriyaki sauce, pickled carrots and daikon and a slather of spicy mayo. Each bite is creamy, crunchy, sweet, pickle-y and delicious, with a restrained crunch that tickles rather than tearing up the inside of your mouth. Required eating.

Lemon Ricotta Hotcake, $15: If you’ve seen the ridiculously fluffy Japanese pancakes starring on every food blogger’s social media pages, you’ll get this pillow-top hotcake. Impressively large without the overpowering bitterness of too much baking powder. Adler says the ricotta cheese helps puff up the batter. Served with lemon lavender ice cream from nearby Noble Folk bakery.

Tiramisu French toast, $16: Almost too cute to eat, this dessert-for-breakfast concoction starts with Goguette brioche, adding a layer of pressed cacao nibs and topped by kisses of whipped mascarpone and coffee ice cream.

Shop Local Benedict, $20: Brown butter takes this hollandaise to the next level, turbo-powering the sauce with flavor. Fat slices of Journeyman bacon and perfectly poached eggs make this a new brunch favorite. Served with roasted and togarishi-spiced purple and sweet potatoes.

Green Eggs & Ham, $18: This Turkish-inspired egg dish may have a silly name, but it’s dead-serious delightful. Two poached eggs sit atop a pool of herby yogurt and zesty Egyptian dukkah spice, begging for enthusiastic dipping of grilled sourdough toast. It would be equally delicious without the generous slice of salty ham, but Sam-I-Am might be disappointed.

Buckeye Cocktail, $15: Skip the orange juice for this punchy cocktail made with tangy Seville orange aperitif, turmeric, ginger tonic and lemon.

Blood Orange Spritz, $10: Aperol spritz and mimosas are so last week. Brunch has a new bestie in this sweet and tart porch-pounder that’s refreshing, fizzy and a perfect foil to rich dishes.

Acorn Café also offers grab-and-go salads and sandwiches, juices and smoothies. Open 8 a.m. to 5 p.m. Thursday to Sunday with an all-day menu 8 a.m. to 3 p.m., and a cocktail and snack menu 3 to 5 p.m. 124 Matheson St., Healdsburg, acornhealdsburg.com
