Jambalaya tonight

whiskey

(Andre F. Chung/Sun Photographer)

My next-door neighbor brought me a business card from the Mill Valley Garden Center & Farmer's Market, which I had never heard of. It turns out the place serves lunch Thursday, Friday and Saturday (this week oxtail and fava bean soup with foccaccia prepared by Soup's On for $3.50).

There's an elaborate Father's Day Breakfast on Sunday from the Whiskey Island Pirate Shop. That's the Whiskey Island Pirate guy in the picture above.

Friday nights are community feast nights, fixed by the Curry Shack.  Tonight is jambalaya. (You can read more about the menu on the market's Web site.)

I can't go tonight because it's my wedding anniversary, and my husband is taking me out to dinner. Of course I can't tell you where before I go, but I'll report on our meal tomorrow.

I've only been to the community dinner once, but it was a lot of fun. Cheap, good food. And, since you end up sitting at picnic tables and patio furniture inside the store, you get to sit and chat with total strangers.

Looking for a nice, casual dining spot for birthday dinner, midweek.
Has to be good food to satisfy older folks,
younger hip tastes, with good wine options and something for kids too!
and maybe outside seating?
any ideas?
thanks
