Sacramento Hounds: Where to buy quinces??
I was concerned about that, as well. I might just have to buy the paste for now. Thank you!

Hi everybody!
I am looking to buy fresh quinces in order to make my own quince paste. I am wondering if anyone in the Sacramento area knows where I might find some. Thanks in advance!!

Where to find Fromage Frais in Sacramento?
Hi fellow hounds,
I am looking for fromage frais somewhere in Sacramento. I understand that low-fat cream cheese can be used as a substitute, but I believe something is lost, texturally speaking. Can anyone tell me if they've looked for and/or found this item? Thanks in advance!
Good Lunch Spots in Bodega Bay??
Hi Fellow 'Hounds,
My mother and I are planning on driving out to Bodega Bay tomorrow, first to stop at the Wild Flour Bread Bakery, then on to Bodega Bay for lunch. But, after having perused Yelp, I haven't found any place that really consistently got good reviews. Nothing too expensive ($-$$ range, preferably), but just a nice place to stop on our outing. I would rather not head up to the Occidental area as it's a little out of our way, but any suggestions would be greatly appreciated! Thanks in advance.

Frozen sour/tart cherries in Sacramento??
I have checked Nugget, Whole Foods, Raleys, Safeway, & the Co-Op. Anyone know where to find frozen, not-dried sour or tart cherries in the Sacramento area??
Saturday lunch spots in Sacramento
OP here, thanks for all the suggestions! After you mentioned it, I remember reading about Plan B back when it opened, and how it was surprisingly good. Chanterelle is a very nice dinner spot, but not sure about lunch. I don't think I've ever been to Roxy. I definitely have some options now! Thanks again!
Saturday lunch spots in Sacramento
Many of the more popular restaurants in and around downtown Sacramento are not open for lunch on Saturdays. I am looking for someplace that is a little nicer than 'everyday', as my friends want to buy me lunch for my birthday. I'm not interested in Zocalo or any of the hotel restaurants, but if anyone knows of any spots that are open on Saturday afternoon, I'd love some suggestions! Thanks in advance.
Thanksgiving Brunch in Sacramento
I have to share Thanksgiving between my in-laws and my mother, and would like to find a nice place for a brunch or lunch in Sacramento to take my mom. I know a number of restaurants will be open for the holiday dinner, but not sure about an earlier meal. Any suggestions?
