Outside Dining Area at Bottega

The 2012 Bib Gourmands from Michelin for the wine country have been named, as part of the “MICHELIN Guide San Francisco, Bay Area, and Wine Country 2012” release.  The restaurants designated with this label by Michelin are places which serve two courses and a glass of wine or dessert for $40 or less, excluding tax and tip.

So, basically, these 19 restaurants (12 in Sonoma County, 7 in Napa County) have really good food at a good value according to Michelin because let’s face it, if the food wasn’t really good they wouldn’t be on the list:
