Bar Tartine

Last post from SF...
After driving back to the city from Healdsburg, we had dinner at Bar Tartine. They had really unique dishes. You really couldn't imagine what it would taste like until you ate it.
We got the last seats at the bar.
Loved the atmosphere, interior and that the walls were covered with art. They also had a really cool wooden chandelier.
Bar Tartine is run by Tartine Bakery, so the bread was excellent.
Duck Pate, Rye Bread, Gooseberry Jam, Elderberry and Corriander Mustards.
Never had Duck pate before, but it was so tasty. Out of the three condiments, my favorite was the Corriander Mustard! Loved the wood tray too.
Smoked Eggplant, Cranberry Beans and Garlic Sausage.
The Eggplant was good, but I thought the sausage was too salty and overpowering.
Chicken Paprikas: Baby Shitake, King Trumpet, Shallot, Kale.
The Paprika sauce was so mild and the Kale perfcectly balanced out the taste.
Strawberry Creamcheese Tart.
This was my ideal cream cheese tart. It had the perfect tartness, light and a crunchy, buttery crust. I also love strawberries, so it was the perfect ending to a very satisfying meal.
