From Napa with Love

We wish every destination had a guide as comprehensive and fun as From Napa with Love. Alexis Swanson Traina’s book is chock-full of photos that will transport you to wineries, restaurants, lodgings and the backyards and living rooms of interesting and eclectic friends from Thomas Keller to her boho mom Elizabeth who has a ready-to-go “prop closet” for impromptu party festivities! Find out where to find the best English muffins in the Valley or Carlo Mondavi’s favorite restaurant. There are even recipes for Roman Coppola’s Limon-Marcello and “How to Make a World Class Shake” by Joel Gott of Gott’s Roadside, which always has a line out the door. This guide is a true Napa love story.
