WHERE'S WENDY? Final Round, Take 2

The dining room at John Ash & Co., where I always dine when I'm in Sonoma County, CA.
by Wendy Perrin
Congrats to LoriB, who aced half of the final round of the WHERE'S WENDY? contest by guessing I was at John Ash, a culinary mainstay of Santa Rosa, CA. But nobody has managed to guess what I was drinking. In other words, I finally stumped the WHERE'S WENDY? crew -- about time, huh? -- and I did it by choosing a cocktail that is no longer on the menu! Pictured at left is the mystery drink, should anyone care to take another stab at it. At right: Another treat not on the regular menu: peach, plum, and apricot crisp with vanilla gelato. And, below, one of my favorite things on the menu:

The Ahi Tuna Tartare Tower, comprised of wasabi potato salad and guacamole topped with tuna and tobiko caviar, and served with wonton chips. Yum!














Is it called a "Chocolate Raspberry Delight?"
Consists of:
1.5 oz. CHARBAY Raspberry Vodka
1.5 oz. Amsterdam Chocolate Liqueur
Splash of Chambord

I don't suppose Wendy will let us know if we're right before I have to go out of town tonight. No internet for me for the next two days. Going to visit family in the middle-of-nowhere Texas.
I don't know if I can stand it...what with no more contest! LOL

Yup, Tracker, that cocktail is a chocolate martini. Well done, and sorry I couldn't respond before you left town. Spent all day today in transit getting my kids back to the East Coast.
Cheers,
Wendy
