Big Casino Recommends Santa Cruz Restaurant

Last night MABS and I went to La Posta on Seabright and it was brilliant. I had seabass cooked in parchment with clams and vegetables with a spot of wine. Subtle but very tasty. MABS as usual had crispy duck which was in a wine sauce sweetened with black grapes - very nice for sopping-up with the wonderful bread we were served. The bartender stopped by to chat and we learned that there are over 900 varietals (different kind of wine grapes) grown in the country of Italy. This is in comparison to what I've heard about CA which has something like 30 varietals. We tried a mere three of them last night. Delicious desert of vanilla gelato with a shot of espresso poured on top.
