Corks and Mosaic by Reuters

Last week Steve James wrote an article for Reuters, a guide for a mini vacation in our area. The article got picked up by many news outlets and run under the title "Spend a couple days in Calif. wine country" or "48 hours in Sebastopol, California." Here is the section that mentions Forestville:

Aim to visit Russian River Vineyards in nearby Forestville around lunchtime where meals  are served in the restaurant, Corks, in an 1890s farmhouse. Try the Wine Country Charcuterie Plate, which including various salami and cheeses or soups and salads. The restaurant serves dinner Thursday through Saturday with dishes from the Pacific Rim, California, New Mexico and Thailand.

7:00 p.m. - After a day of tasting, dinner at Mosaic Restaurant & Wine Lounge at 6675 Front St, Forestville is a must for the discerning palate.

Chef/owner Tai Olesky uses fresh ingredients from local gardens, farms and ranches. The house salad highlights organic baby lettuces, apple, toasted almonds, celery heart and local blue cheese from Point Reyes. The cheese also features on the Coffee Encrusted Filet Mignon along with locally grown mushrooms and a chocolate Cabernet demi-glace.

Needless to say, they serve local Sonoma wines.

Here are some of the places you can read the whole article now, although it will disappear at some of these locations soon.
