Great news: Guests staying at the Old World Inn's Cabernet House, Merlot House and Hotel Napa Valley can walk-- and drive-- to even more Michelin Guide "Bib Gourmand" award-winning restaurants!
Each year, Michelin's Bib Gourmands are awarded to restaurants that offer excellent food at a reasonable price. They are selected by Michelin's anonymous food inspectors and represent restaurants that serve two courses and a glass of wine or dessert for $40 or less (tax and gratuity not included). Perhaps most important, these are the restaurants that the Michelin food inspectors personally frequent themselves!
This morning, the Michelin Guide announced their 2015 Bib Gourmand winners. We were delighted to see some new additions:
Grace's Table (14 min walk from Old World Inns)
Farmer and the Fox (20 min drive)
