In smaller cities like Healdsburg it is sometimes difficult to find anything decent to eat beside fast food if you arrive quite late. So on a recent trip for short weekend vacation to Healdsburg we were quite happy to find Lo & Behold Bar and Kitchen open late and with an interesting menu which didn’t disappoint. The cocktails were also very nice with the added bonus that mocktails weren’t just an afterthought but also well thought out and made
Pea shoot salad, sesame, yoghurt, sunflower seeds - simple but very fresh salad with a nice dressing
Crispy egg rolls, black mushrooms, hot mustard & truffle sauce - plenty of wood ear mushrooms in the filling
Vietnamese crepe, pork belly, prawns, nuoc cham, fresh herbs - banh xeo with plenty of pork belly and prawns
Confit beef brisket tacos, chile negra, white beans, asada onions, consommé - looked like a small portions but turned out to be a quite sizable amount of very tender beef brisket with a nice flavor
The brazen burger, white cheddar, sweet onion, lettuce, fries - the correctly cooked burger came surprisingly with a toasted bread/focaccia but that worked actually quite well
Housemade noodles, kimchi butter, black vinegar, sesame, water chestnuts, egg - Nice mouthfeel on the noodles and the sauce made with kimchi had a nice kick and was addictive, water chestnuts added some texture
Creme caramel, burnt vanilla, coconut - classic preparation
Brownie sundae, peanuts, caramel, yummy stuff - classic preparation
