Thomas Keller is the chef-owner behind the French Laundry,
that regularly ranks as one of the best restaurants
in the world. A meal at the French Laundry is unlike
any other dining experience. Part of its unique character
has to do with the intricate preparations, often finished
tableside, presented with uncommon artistry and detail
-- from the food itself to the surface on which it's
delivered. Other distinguishing features include the
intimate environment; the service, which is formal,
and attentive (one course, for example, comes with a
selection of salts in a fancy box); and the sheer length
of time it takes to ride Keller's culinary magic carpet.
The Poetry Inn is genuinely intimate hideaway. All
rooms have great views over the Stags Leap District
and Cliff Lede vineyards; the inn is owned by the Cliff
Lede winery. Suites also come with private balconies,
wood-burning fireplaces, soaking tubs and outdoor showers.
Additional amenities include feather duvets, Italian
linens, flat-screen TVs and complimentary wireless Internet.
Décor is soothing and tasteful, with original
artwork and a palette that corresponds to the outdoor
setting. For further details,
