Bauer Says Insalata’s Is Still ‘Rock Solid’

Mr. Bauer revisits Insalata’s in San Anselmo today, and says the ten-plus-year-old restaurant is still “rock solid,” and worthy of two and a half stars. He calls the pappardelle with wild mushroom ragout and pork and fennel meatballs “one of the best pastas I’ve had of late,” and he compliments a root vegetable salad and a lamb shank dish as well, calling it “beautiful.” [Chron]
