Before Teresa’s wedding, we stayed at The Claremont hotel in Berkeley because it was close to the wedding venue. We ate there a lot because we had a big group (10 people!) and it was easy to make reservations there for breakfast and dinner. I got a little sick while we were there but did enjoy a few things at the restaurant, including the homemade egg tagliatelle with roasted seasonal vegetables (mushrooms) and tarragon beurre blanc:

And the Pacific salmon with wilted kale, Tokyo turnips, and honey mustard vinaigrette:

Their dinner selections were all very good and came with a lot of different types of bred (their olive bread was my favorite).

We also enjoyed lots of breakfasts there – I was fighting some kind of cold so stuck with a lighter breakfast, which consisted of fresh fruit and a bruleed vanilla yogurt with their homemade granola and fruit:

While Ken enjoyed the egg white omelet with purple potatoes and a side of breakfast sausage:

The view from the restaurant is great for clear days – unfortunately, while we were there, it poured the entire time! (although, good for California – it’s been two years since they got rain!) The hotel’s fitness center was also really nice – so nice that some of the Warriors work out there! Ken’s nephew, Charley, ran into Steve Nash one morning at the gym while we were enjoying breakfast!
