My new Napa friend Tiffany gave me a mini tasting at this very popular dinner spot in Downtown Napa for my last night. As you can see it was very limited, but gave me a little slice of heaven.
Small Plates
Crispy spring rolls with soy-braised pork belly, shaved carrots, fresh herbs. So simple, but delicate, with a super punch of Asian flavors.
Dungeness crab cake with baby tatsoi, watermelon daikon and srirachia aioli. I just wish I would have had 10 of these, they are that good.
Flash fried calamari with a spice chipotle chili and orange honey glaze, pickled ginger. The calamari is very crispy, with the orange honey glaze you mouth is set on a really great far away journey.
Celadon is right on the Napa River, in a very historic Old Mill building. It deserves all of the hype, and maybe next time I can do a larger menu tasting.
