Napa & Sonoma: Where to Eat: Big Night Out: Dry Creek Kitchen

Dry Creek Kitchen

From Charlie Palmer, owner of Aureole, in Manhattan, this sophisticated vaulted dining room located in Hotel Healdsburg serves primarily local products, like Sonoma duck, and Meyer lemons in its crème brûlée. The top-notch wine list features mostly Sonoma County wines.
