Services are equally excellent at Taste. It is a Twilight-Zone worthy establishment in local restaurant experience.  We witnessed them recognized as one of the top 10 in Sacramento.  Don't forget to order "Mushroom cigar".

Ginger Elizabeth Chocolate
Chocolates make people happy.  But if you have not taste Ginger's chocolates you have not yet discovered what true happiness is.  Takashi finds exquisite chocolate from all over the world and very few stayed in his memories.  Rowena & Takashi travel an hour just to get her chocolates and that tells you a lot about her creations.  It's a must especially if you appreciate her European training.

Wolfdale Restaurant
Long drive can be a part of great dining.  Exquisite menu selection prepared by Chef Douglas definitely worth the drive to Lake Tahoe.

Janet M Baily Ph.D.
She is a medical miracle.  Takashi once rushed to emergency for abdominal pain.  After 6 hours of ordeal and $9,000 medical bill, he was told that he is perfectly healthy...  With no remedies and persisting pain,  he called Janet.  Pain was gone after 1 visit and never came back.  This is one of the numerous stories from Janet's office.
