If you are in the San Juan Capistrano area, Sundried Tomato Cafe is a great place to eat. Philippe and I had Polenta with tomatillo sauce, avocado, corn, tomato cilantro and sour cream as an appetizer and it was delicious. If you are into corn bread, polenta is an alternative that would bring a similar taste yet a different texture. The tomatillo sauce was tasty and nicely complemented by the corn and avocado. I had the three cheese and farfalle pasta (gorgonzola, parmesan and asiago, blackened chicken, roasted garlic, roasted red bell pepper with sundried tomato puree). I substituted the chicken with mushrooms since I'm a vegetarian and I was not dissappointed. The flavors were rich, especially the gorgonzola, but complemented each other beautifully. Philppe had the natural half chicken marinated with preserved lemons, garlic and rosemary, green beans and potato puree and could not stop talking about how delicious it was. The chicken looked very tender and the mashed potatoes were creamy and smooth.
