Bay Area Dining-Critics Choice: Crab Cakes
Two and a half stars
February, 2005
“Now that Napa is back, baby, Celadon is riding the wave along with all the newer joints that have popped up around it. The dining room is warm and inviting, and the front patio is equally appealing. Most dishes, while basically comfort food, have a bit of Asia tucked in there somewhere. Beef satay is not the version you’ve had at countless Thai dives—here it’s tender and juicy and pink inside. Plump mussels bask in a tomato-and-bacon broth, and butternut squash soup gets an unexpected dribble of vanilla oil. Starters like this mean you may not make it as far as the big ol’ plates of mains, like a New York steak with purple potatoes and green beans. Particularly if you’re smart enough to save room for the thick slices of gingerbread with huckleberries and cinnamon gelato. ”
