Folks, I have lots of articles on the horizon, including wine tasting notes from three different Spring Mountain wineries.

Beyond all of the catching up I need to do locally, I'll also be heading down the coast this week to taste the wines of the Santa Ynez Valley. A full report will follow.

Last but not least, I'll be delving into my collection of vintage New Orleans cookbooks to uncover the secret to great red beans and rice. Do stay tuned.

The Fat Boy @ Hana Japanese Restaurant, Rohnert Park

For those who are gearheads, the “Fat Boy” is best-known as a model of Harley Davidson. I’m not sure if the Fat Boy sushi roll at Hana borrows its name from the motorcycle, but I did spot a couple Harley Davidson stickers posted near the sushi bar. Etymology aside, the Fat Boy at Hana is equal parts opulence and deliciousness: unagi, tamago and foie gras, rolled and given the tempura treatment, then sliced into eight pieces and drizzled with unagi sauce. While the roll itself does not feature many of the same photogenic colors as some of chef Ken Tominaga’s other creations, I had to share this photo nonetheless. After all, it’s sushi with foie.
