We live within easy driving distance to one of the world’s top wine regions, Napa Valley.
But we seldom visit Napa Valley…
Hubby and I try very hard to be good parents, and good parents don’t drag their children to Napa Valley’s countless wineries to sip wine.
Then one day, one of these children got a driver’s license. We got ourselves a designated driver!
Hey, hubby and I can both taste wine all day long. This gave us enough incentive to stop being good parents. We loaded the kids into our car, and drove to Napa.
The first stop was lunch, and our navigation took us straight to C Casa.
C Casa is one of the rare 100% gluten free restaurants in the country. When you have a celiac in the family, any 100% gluten free restaurant qualifies as a destination all by itself.C Casa offered wide menu options, and we ordered the Bison Burger, Duck and Steak tacos, and roasted chicken.
Since C Casa started out as a gluten free bakery, we ordered their lemon cake and donuts to boot. This pleased our 13-year-old celiac child immensely.Our baby felt like a VIP at Napa. Many of their ice cream parlors offered gluten free cones,
and for dinner, she got to order a gluten free dinner entree that is the good food, ribs and fries!!We still feel like good parents.
Napa Valley is teeming with fine dining options, boutique shops, galleries, high end coffee bars,
and loads of fine cheeses.But mostly, people come to Napa for its vines and wine, and its endless supply of beautiful wineries.
We visited a number of wineries, tasted many glasses of fine wine, and came home with 16 bottles. The four of us agreed that when these 16 bottles run dry, it is time for another drive to Napa.
