- Ginger Island - Berkeley 6th St. (or is it 4th?) - interesting fusion It's fouth Street I'd like to add my favorite Fringale at 4th and Branan. Chef Gerald Hirigoyen was awarded the James Beard award as the most promising young chef in the US and he IS!!!! You leave this restaurant very satisified quality, quantity and marvel at how small the bill is. Yes reservations necessary. The food is Southern French Bistro as he is from Bairritz. I take friends there and even my friends from Paris rave! His creme brulee is the best, as is Moules, pork confit, lamb oh la la --actually we've eaten our way through the menu--- magnifique absolutely flawless. It is very much a locals place and fortunately most tourist don't know of it. It is our treasured secret. Mary-Anne If you get to Napa Valley Cafe Jeuanty is a must.
