SingleThread ⭐️⭐️⭐️ — all 12 courses and what I’d actually want to know before booking.
Swipe ➡️ for all 12 courses.
1. MID SUMMER IN SONOMA
What a way to start a meal!
You sit down and they bring out this enormous arrangement of moss, flowers and greenery with around 10 individual bites tucked throughout it. Before you’ve really eaten anything, SingleThread has already made it clear that this is going to be as much an experience as a dinner.
The presentation was incredible. This is the coolest opening of any dinner I’ve ever had.
The bites themselves were a little more mixed. I’d say six of the ten were genuinely incredible, while four were beautiful but didn’t have quite enough flavor for me. But as a first course and introduction to what SingleThread is trying to do, this was pretty unforgettable.

2. STRAWBERRY MORIAWASE
Bluefin Tuna, Halibut, Shiroika, Cucumber, Sorrel
This might have been one of the most beautiful dishes of the night. The presentation was incredible and visually I thought this was going to be one of my favorites.
Unfortunately, the flavor didn’t quite get there for me. Everything was extremely delicate, but almost too delicate. With bluefin tuna, halibut, shiroika, cucumber and sorrel, I kept waiting for something to really pop.
Absolutely beautiful dish. Just a little flat compared with some of the courses that followed.
3. SWEET CORN
American White Sturgeon Caviar, Yuba, Shiso, Masa Sauce

4. SUMMER FARM TOMATOES
Silken Tofu, Tomato Ponzu, Duck Mousse, Modern Dashi, Negi
My second favorite savory course.
SingleThread grows around 30 varieties of tomatoes on the farm, and they serve them both cold and warm. The cold preparation is supposed to capture the bright, refreshing side of a tomato. The warm preparation recreates eating a tomato straight from the vine after it has been warmed by the sun.
It sounds overly specific until you eat it. The
