The Most Beautiful Lunch Eats in the Bay Area?

At least once a month, I just can't help myself. It's time for another one of my raves about the little, hidden away, Larkspur Cafe, Tabla, who make my absolute favourite lunches in Marin. Their food is always seasonal, fresh, organic and healthy, but oh so delicious. I usually run a mile from anything that is too good for me, but Tabla is a glorious exception to that rule.

I just can't resist vegetables when they are presented like this.



More than just a pretty face, Tabla's food always tastes as good as it looks, too.
Pictured below, a seasonal nettle soup with lemon creme fraiche.



Tabla can be found at 1167 Magnolia Avenue, Larkspur, (415) 461-6787

I recommend their specials, salads and soups over their signature dosas but Fred actually prefers the Indian-style lacy sourdough pancake filled with scrambled farm eggs, curry spiced poatoes and spinach. Check out my previous Tabla posts for more information here, here, here and here
