Canine in tow, The Bauer Hour takes a trip up to Calistoga's Solbar, and he has 2.5 stars for the year-old Auberge du Soleil family member: "The resort's promo material describes it as 'Napa barn meets San Francisco loft.' Chef Brandon Sharp offers a casual, local menu grouped into 'healthy, light fare' and 'hearty cuisine.' Regardless of which you choose, the combinations are eclectic and the flavors bold ... Lunch is clearly the most popular meal at this time of year, but the dinner menu shows off Sharp's cooking skills." [Chron]
