My wife and I went for our 25th anniversary and I can only say it boarders on a religious experience. Honestly we knew I was going to be great but it was so much more. The service is just spot on and they go that extra mile without you asking. You can’t complain about the cost as it is worth every penny.
Happy 10th Anniversary!! That's worth celebrating, and it was fun to see your extravagant date at such a gourmet restaurant! May your marriage be blessed with many more happy years together~
It’s magical to eat at the French Laundry! It’s the experience, the ambiance, the hospitality and the food all together that makes it a memorable event in your life! My husband and I went there on our 10th and 30th wedding anniversaries! Cheers to more anniversaries!🥂🍾
I enjoyed your video about the French Laundry. My husband has been the landscape designer at Carneros for the last six years. We have eaten and many restaurants in Napa; Yountsville and Sonoma. We love Mustards;Bouchon, Too many to name. And the French Laundry is an experience we have enjoyed a few times.
I really appreciate the video and the extra details you added. I’ve heard about the restaurant but now this will be on my bucket list. Thank you for sharing. Keep the videos coming. Happy anniversary!
What an amazing experience and I for one appreciate the fact that you both are aware of how fortunate you are to get to dine at such a fine restaurant. This place is on my bucket list.
I’d love to see more videos like this showcasing restaurants. We travel and are usually staying off the grid, but a big part of our traveling is stopping and eating along the way. Could be a bbq, could be a nice restaurant. We just want to experience the standout places in the area.
My husband and I also had the pleasure of dining at the French Laundry back in the 90's , several times, what can I say, the food and presentation is beyond fabulous. I don't know if you ever review places on the east coast but if you do you must try the Inn at Little Washington it gives the French Laundry a run for the money I would have to say the food and presentation there is superb. It's in a tiny town in Virginia called Little Washington it's truly worth the trip. They also have beautiful guest rooms so there is no rush to return to reality. Happy Anniversary.
Happy Anniversary! Thanks so much for sharing your special day with us. What an incredible experience. Definitely a once in a lifetime for most people but it looked excellent and magical, like you said! If you can afford it, would love to experience more great restaurants with you!
Great review, glad you enjoyed it. I am planning to take my mom there for her birthday. She is a retired chef with over 40 years of experience. It’s a very difficult to find the restaurant she would enjoy. I hope French Laundry won’t disappoint her.
My son and I were there t’was the most memorable experience we ever had, though the servings are in smaller sizes but oh my Lord everything were sooooo good. It was so pricey but very very tasty beyond imagination.
Wow, what a fantastic experience! Happy Anniversary to both of you! 🍾🥂 I really enjoy your hiking videos, but I also like other experiences… I enjoy a good meal, a good view! I feel it’s important to celebrate milestones in style, as a couple, be that big anniversaries or big birthdays. It’s ok to splurge big once in a while. 😃 My husband and I went to Lake Louise (Canada) recently for our big birthdays. We stayed in the expensive Chateau, and enjoyed meals in 2 of the hotel restaurants. 5 years previous to that we celebrated in the Eiffel Tower. We’re over 70, can’t take it with us, right? I’m a retired ICU nurse and have been telling people for decades… don’t put things off. Do it now. I’m now living by my own words! We’re still hiking, still taking lots of photos! Yes, do surprise us with some non hiking stuff once in a while, you’re a great reporter! Thanks to your lovely wife for being part of the video! Both of you did a great job relating your experience! I hope you’ll have many more wonderful experiences together ahead of you!
Fun fact this place is so good during COVID Gavin Newsom closed down other restaurants denied people on lockdown and went with his family and influential people to have himself a fine meal .
Fun fact. The lockdowns in California were done on a county by county basis. Counties with the lowest numbers reopened faster than others. Counties with the highest numbers (typically the ones with the most people whining and refusing to follow the guidelines) ironically had to stay shut down the longest for public safety. This is why the French Laundry was allowed to be open while some other restaurants in the state were still closed. Because it is in a county full of people who took the guidelines seriously and got their numbers down quickly instead of just whining and pretending to be martyrs for being asked to do simple things that literally everyone in the world was being asked to do at that time like wearing masks in public. The only mistake the governor made was visiting the county and the restaurant with members of other households, which he apologized for later. If you’re criticizing the governor that must mean you were taking the guidelines seriously and refusing to socialize with members of other households. Thanks for caring about other people and not just yourself. I live in Fresno county. Half of this county just whined and refused to follow the guidelines. We could have reopened much sooner than we did but we wound up being one of the last counties in the state that got to reopen because of their ignorance and selfishness and recklessness. Not because of the governor.
You forgot the part about where he was discouraging families from gathering during the holidays two hours before partying with his lobbyist friends here . Even he admitted it was a stupid move. No need to fall all over yourself defending him.
@@user-gq2vn1xj2r if you’re responding to me, I wasn’t falling over myself defending him. I didn’t say what he did was ok. He did make mistakes and I’m sure you followed all the guidelines to a T. I was only pointing out that he didn’t just arbitrarily close some restaurants and open others like the original comment implied. It was based on numbers by county. He was not to blame for some restaurants being open and some being closed. The people in those counties who wouldn’t follow the guidelines for public safety were to blame for that. You know. The same people who say personal responsibility is so important and then just blame other people for everything when they don’t get their way. The same people who act like they were being treated unfairly when all the rest of the world was being asked to do the same things. The people who just whined about the guidelines and refused to follow them were to blame for those restaurants remaining closed. Not the governor. He just made the guidelines. It was up to all of us to choose whether we followed them or not. You can blame him all you want but he didn’t decide when certain counties should reopen and when they shouldn’t. The people in those counties decided and the ones who refused to follow the guidelines were the last to reopen. That’s just a fact. Not because Newsom didn’t like them but because their numbers of cases were still too high. Because they were being a bunch of babies instead of just following the restrictions like the rest of the state and caring about others instead of just themselves. If they had been willing to act like adults about it instead of throwing temper tantrums their counties would have been open too.
@@craigcampbell1843so the least populated counties opened first? Following "guidelines" did nothing hence why Newsome had a private business dinner here. Homelessness, suicide, violet crime all increased during his time in office but yeah he cares so much. Moron
I’m so happy for you and the great experience you had dining at a fancy pants restaurant. I remember my first time staying at Post Ranch Inn in Big Sur where European royalty and celebrities stay. The level of hospitality I experienced was incredible. When I returned they remembered who I was and arranged a falconry experience for my birthda then attended the Big Sur Food and Wine Festival at the resort. The best birthday ever.
Your wife was the most beautiful dish , I hope you don’t mind me saying , happy anniversary too you both , loved the review too , very nicely done , regards from England 🏴
Loved this video. I was always curious about the restaurant and you answered all my questions. So happy you guys got to do this for your anniversary. Amy, I love your dress!
Congrats Josh n Amy happy anniv. Thanks for bringing us along with ur beautiful video work. I hope all our views n subs can support ur lifestyle n work You give us so much. Spirit of Huell Hauser, lives. Keep on.
Well done video and review, you two...and happy 10th anniversary! This brought back wonderful memories. My husband and I visited the French Laundry a few years ago and everything you said was spot on! It was such an incredible experience, nearly to the point of being "religious" as you mentioned. lol It is pricey, but IMHO so worth it. Congrats!
Loved it! I’d like more videos of cities and restaurants. Need a break from hiking. The French Laundry looked phenomenal. They provided an amazing dining experience. Someday. 🤞🏼🤞🏼
One reason is that there was only one entree item available - on that day it was lamb and I don't like lamb one bit. Why didn't I find out what the item of the day was? Because I was invited to the restaurant and had no input as to what was being served than night, Perhaps this single item menus might have been modified (I ate there in the eary 1990's). But, I have no reason to try this crapshoot again@@jimklemens5018
First off, Happy Anniversary!!!! I'm so glad you guys had a great experience there. The food looked so good too. I loved going to Napa when my husband and my friends went there for a vacay. Second, thank you for sharing other options b/c IDK if I could spend that much for a dinner experience that is for sure. Maybe next time when we are in Napa we can go to the other place you mentioned. Thank you for sharing your experience with us.
Very cool, definitely would like to go there with my foody friend, better start saving now. I heard about it only because our Governor was seen there during covid lockdown, so nice to see it through your eyes. Happy Anniversary. Cheers!
I agree with your comments and observations. I also felt that the service people moved as a coordinated ensemble when bringing our food. A gastronomic dance, if you will!
Very cool!! Congratulations on your anniversary and having an amazing experience! And thank you for such a thoughtful detailed video for the rest of us to enjoy!! ❤
This is as close as I ever will get to dining there so thank you for taking us along. Even though the price is extremely high, the service, ambiance, presentation, and quality seem to match
Great info! Luckily my dad works at Bouchon the restaurant and we are blessed to sometimes get great things from the bakery and restaurant when allowed.
Thanks for another glimpse into your globetrotting experience. The name of the restaurant does not do it justice: trendy place, classy people & appetizing food!
Well at the end you said to ask "any" question we might have, so I have one but to be fair you would have to research it; at minute 8:47 in your video there are some plates with a print pattern of birds and brownish bamboo. I googled it but couldn't find out what pattern it is; googling French Laundry dishes only results in interesting all white dinner plates. Thank you for a great video; it is both informative, gives you a good feel for what it would be like to go, glad I found your channel.
You guys nailed this video, very enjoyable and I think the format is something you can expand upon. I just hope you took some time between shooting to enjoy yourselves!
The Herbfarm in Woodinville Washington is another dinner experience alot like this and I enjoyed it immensely. Wish I could go back again, but it’s so pricey nowadays. I hope I can go again some day ❤.
Really enjoyed this video…and all the other CA videos, too. We are full time RVers and I used a lot of your info for the 2 months we spent in Northern Cal this spring. Loved it so much we bought a spot for our motorhome, and hope to continue experiencing your great state in future fall/winter stays!
I appreciate your insight to this venue. I don’t want to take anything away from your experience. And I’m glad that you enjoyed this very much on your anniversary. I consider myself an amateur foodie, but could never justify spending this kind of money on single meal, regardless of the occasion. Maybe if I was multimillionaire, I would feel differently. I’m glad I was able to experience this through your eyes and not through my wallet. If I died tomorrow, this would not be one of my regrets of not eating at this establishment. I guess I’ll slum it over at the Atheneum at Cal Tech 😅
Nice vid. You know it's good when it makes me hungry and damn the prices. Happy Anniversary. Seriously, this is California and you can spend more and get less service. Thanks for sharing and look forward to your next vid. Cheers.
Thanks for a very detailed video on The French Laundry. Personally, I think there were equally good restaurants in St. Helena. Unfortunately, Lissa Doumani and Hiro Sone's, TERRA Restaurant closed several years ago.
How fun! That Neal looked amazing. That’s how I felt in Italy. I went to a Michelin star place in Milan. It was nice and fancy but your continence was above snd beyond. That’s amazing.
I have driven past this restaurant so many times but knew it was expensive. Thank you for showing us what it is like on the inside. Happy Anniversary! Our Anniversary is also in October so now my husband is notified to save his money for our 40th in seven years. LOL!!! Also enjoyed the tips at the end as well. ❤
Have walked passed FL many time because I heard it was so expensive but looks like you 2 had a great time I would love to see you and your wife opinion on RH within walking distance just North of FL up the road and would really like to see you video this place as you do a Fantastic Job . I just started watching your channel and looking forward to seeing more Conrad
The only thing I remember from dining there, about 10 years ago, was how nice and relaxed the waiters were. I don't mean to say that the food wasn't great, but I think that was expected.
Firstly, a belated Happy Anniversary to you both! Secondly (and please don't take offense!) Amie was/is looking gorgeous!!! Thirdly, that looked an incredible experience......I'm more a burger and fries type, but those dishes looked like works of art!
To be fair, $370 is pretty reasonable for a magical, once-in-a-lifetime culinary experience of that standard. Happy Anniversary, guys!
👎
TBH I thought that meal would run you $500.
When I lived n Napa, I knew friends who paid 1,200.00/PP for a tasting menu, beverages not included.
My only concern is out of all the bites you get maybe two are your favorite
wrgg
Thanks for sharing your anniversary dinner with us. Wishing you many more!
What a memorable meal. And hats off to the staff for providing a VIP experience!

Excellent restaurant is truly an experience. Everybody should enjoy.
this made me happy to see you both humbly and joyfully appreciating a quality experience ... thanks
What an incredible experience you both were fortunate to have had! Happy anniversary, and all the best!🎉
Thank you so much!! Glad you enjoyed it
👍
What a memorable meal. And hats off to the staff for providing a VIP experience!
Presentation looked incredible. Well worth the cost. I'll make it there some day.
We had an almost identical experience.. Magic is right. Don’t need to do it twice, but was very exciting

This was cool. Do more videos like this one.
Thanks so much for posting this video! It looks wonderful. This is on my Bucket List so it's nice to get a better idea of what to expect.
You are so welcome! Glad you enjoyed it and I hope you make it there someday!
Thank you for sharing your adventure and being down to earth.
Amy, you looked incredible in that dress!
Happy Anniversary!! 💗
Kind of you to say, I will let her know!
That looked like fun! I’d love to see more restaurant experiences from you two.

Really appreciate that kind comment and so glad you like the videos. Huell Howser was the best!
I had the pleasure of working for Thomas Keller and French Laundry is absolutely worth the price of admission.

OMG guys happy anniversary and a great video. Sent it to my wife and an idea for when we are next on the west coast
First off, Happy Anniversary!!!! I'm so glad you guys had a great experience there. The food looked so good too. I loved going to Napa when my husband and my friends went there for a vacay.

What a beautiful presentation. First rate reporting on a once-in-a-lifetime experience.
I always wanted to try there. Thanks for doing the homework for me. I need to start saving now . . . .
My future son in law works at The French Laundry as a Sommelier. Your meal looked amazing.
Happy anniversary!
This review was simply wonderful! I've heard about the place several times and definitely want to dine there one day...
Legit bucket list item! Congratulations on double digit wedding anniversary!!! Say “hi” to Pops!
Looks Wonderful ❤❤❤❤❤ Happy Anniversary Beautiful Couple 💗
Chef Bruno at the Anaheim Whitehouse is a friend of ours. Each time you dine there is a new experience.
Very cool, definitely would like to go there with my foody friend, better start saving now. I heard about it only because our Governor was seen there during covid lockdown, so nice to see it through your eyes. Happy Anniversary. Cheers!
Isn't this the place where Gavin Newsom got busted for being out in public without a mask?! Lol
He wasn't "busted" beyond us knowing about it. They are fascists.
Yes this is the place.
Looked like an amazing time! Congratulations!
Happy Sunday My friend, Have Anniversary to you and Amy
Happy anniversary 🎉 keep up the good work on our beautiful golden state and beyond
wow looks so amazing. The food looks just like it looks in a cookbook. The glasses are so clean.
WOW! I would love to go there someday. It sure sounds wonderful.
It really is!
Josh!! You actually combed your hair 😳 just kidding just kidding 😅
Happy anniversary!! 🎉 Glad you got to celebrate in this fabulous restaurant 🙌🏽
Happy anniversary you two! I’ll take my McDonald’s money and start saving it for French Laundry!
My first time watching your channel…..judging by what I watched you just might want to reserve your 50th…..a pleasant couple you are,
Loved the video! And please do more restaurants.. fancy or not.. it's always great to have ideas and feedback from you guys. Happy 10 year!
I agree with your comments and observations. I also felt that the service people moved as a coordinated ensemble when bringing our food. A gastronomic dance, if you will!
Very cool!! Congratulations on your anniversary and having an amazing experience! And thank you for such a thoughtful detailed video for the rest of us to enjoy!! ❤

Great info! Luckily my dad works at Bouchon the restaurant and we are blessed to sometimes get great things from the bakery and restaurant when allowed.
Wow, their kitchen reminds me of that movie Menu. Congrats on your 10th Anniversary, & God Bless you & your Family.
Thanks for another glimpse into your globetrotting experience. The name of the restaurant does not do it justice: trendy place, classy people & appetizing food!
Great video! French Laundry is American hospitality at its peak!
Oh HELL Yeah,, beautiful & beyond my wildest dreams ☃️🎄⛄❤️
Happy Anniversary, Great experiences are memorable and worth sharing with the one you love most.
Happy Anniversary.🍾
Well at the end you said to ask "any" question we might have, so I have one but to be fair you would have to research it; at minute 8:47 in your video there are some plates with a print pattern of birds and brownish bamboo.

You
Payed for Newsoms dinner.. so you did eat there
It was a free meal! Do you think the restaurant would've allowed them to go all over the place with a camera on hand without a commercial deal?
Nice vid. You know it's good when it makes me hungry and damn the prices. Happy Anniversary. Seriously, this is California and you can spend more and get less service. Thanks for sharing and look forward to your next vid. Cheers.
Back then it was $500 for 2 but I couldn’t make for lunch so had to cancel. I still want to go and experience this. Thanks for the info ❤❤❤.
Oh wow, I hope you can go some day

haha it is worth planning that far in advance for :)
Have walked passed FL many time because I heard it was so expensive but looks like you 2 had a great time
I would love to see you and your wife opinion on RH within walking distance just North of FL up the road and would really like to see you video this place as you do a Fantastic Job .
I just started watching your channel and looking forward to seeing more

The only thing I remember from dining there, about 10 years ago, was how nice and relaxed the waiters were. I don't mean to say that the food wasn't great, but I think that was expected.
Happy anniversary 🥳😅
I appreciate you supporting California and beyond i love ur vids so much 😅
Firstly, a belated Happy Anniversary to you both! Secondly (and please don't take offense!) Amie was/is looking gorgeous!!! Thirdly, that looked an incredible experience......I'm more a burger and fries type, but those dishes looked like works of art!
