SingleThread Farm Restaurant & Inn in Healdsburg California

Single-Thread-Farm-Restaurant Building

SingleThread Farm Restaurant Inn is the hottest restaurant in California, and was named the most anticipated Restaurant opening in 2016. Fast forward to 2017 and it is still on fire and the toughest reservation to snag in California’s wine country.  Personally, Healdsburg is my favorite destination in Northern California’s wine country so I was thrilled this was the location they selected for this beautiful restaurant and inn.  Designed by AvroKO the interior and exterior are stunning. Add a beautiful roof top with gardens, firepits and views of the Healdsburg square and you have one of the most picturesque settings in Wine Country.

The stunning menu printed daily with a hand written note from Kyle and Katina. This was my absolute favorite detail of the visit. I still have the menu and dried flower at home as a fond memory of my visit to SingleThread Farm & Inn.

Arriving for my SingleThread dining experience. I was the happiest girl as I began this incredible culinary adventure.

The warm welcome from Chef Kyle as I arrived. Upon entering the restaurant there are open kitchen views (shown) and then guests are ushered to the roof (if it’s roof top weather) to enjoy a welcome drink and the first course.  My visit marked the second night the roof top was open this Spring so I felt beyond lucky to experience this picturesque setting.SingleThread Farm Restaurant InnImmediately upon arriving to the roof I was welcomed by this gentleman with a welcome beverage.

SingleThread Farm Restaurant InnThe stunning table presentation I arrived to. I love the floral corsage at each guest’s seat. I later learned these are made daily by Katina, Kyle’s wife who also runs their garden where the majority of their vegetables and plants are grown for the restaurant.

SingleThread Farm Restaurant InnThe thoughtful notepad the team gave me which of course I filled completely with notes from the visit. I have never dined alone at such a luxurious meal and I actually highly recommend it. I was able to pay attention to every detail, every flavor and watch the team cook from my table with front row kitchen views.

SingleThread Farm Restaurant InnThe Black Cod and Chanterelle “Fukkur-San”. I always love when a dish is poured table side as it adds another touch of excitement and engagement with the diner. This dish was delicious. I loved the young lettuce broth and the leeks and brassicas from the SingleThread farm.

SingleThread Farm Restaurant InnThe first of the two desserts I experienced. I loved the presentation of this and finally as the meal concluded I got the courage to head into the kitchen for a shot with the team. They were super friendly and nice I just never want to get in the way during service.

A huge thank you to Chef Kyle, Katina and the SingleThread team for hosting me for this incredible dining experience. It is really hard to put into words how special the visit was. Not only because of the beautiful space, the gorgeous roof top gardens, or all of the beautiful serving wear the amazing food is served on. But also getting to meet Chef Kyle and the various team members making this one of the most memorable and delicious meals I have ever had.
