Bistro 29

Went to Bistro 29 to celebrate a friend's birthday. It's located at 620 Fifth Street in downtown Santa Rosa. They offer a 3-course bistro menu with an amuse bouche for $34. Wine pairing is additional $11. I sure miss Flavor Bistro and their 4-course dinner with wine pairing for $25.

Amuse Bouche--Crouton of Smoky Blue Cheese with Saltana Chutney. There wasn't much smokiness to the blue but I liked the sweet and sour chutney.

First course of Wilted Beet Greens Salad with Roasted Fennel and 6 Minute Eggs. Loved this dish. The eggs were perfect--not too gooey and not overcooked.

The entree was Lamb Navarin--braised lamb with turnips, carrots, potatoes and English peas. Delicious.

Dessert was Vanilla-White Wine Poached Pear with Sable Breton & Pistachio Ice Cream. Loved the pear and ice cream. The sable was a little too thick.
