Oxbow Public Market - Napa

Our over-indulgent weekend continued at the new Oxbow Public Market in Napa, a much-needed short walk away from our hotel.

The market is quite small and very manageable, which was a nice change from the sometimes overwhelming Ferry Building in SF. We wandered through and bought a picnic from the Fatted Calf (beef jerky), Model Bakery (lemon bars, bacon bread - yum!, baguette), Rotisario (roast chicken, asparagus salad), Three Twins Ice Cream (meyer lemon sorbet), Oxbow Cheese Merchant (bean salad, olives, gruyere, Eclipse goat cheese, Bleu D'Auvergne blue cheese). We also stopped at the Olive Press (some very nice Arbequina oil) and the Whole Spice Company (Zhug - a nice melange of hot spices).

We returned to our hotel and ate by the Napa River.
