The most spectacular post of the week is not a post at all, but an electronic book, the second brought to you by Tasting Menu blogger Hillel Cooperman. In creating Autumn Omokase from Tatsu Nishino the team has really outdone themselves with fantastic writing, photography, design and concept. Download this free book, if you haven't already.

Continuing on the Fall theme, check out A Simple Fall Breakfast at SF Gourmet. I too have been enjoying fruit and ricotta or yogurt and honey as a breakfast and sometimes as a dessert. Simple, but simply wonderful.

Finally I learned about the Cheese Bar event at The Cheeseboard from The Cheese Diaries. After reading about it, I hope I get to go to the next one. If you are looking for an excuse to go over to Berkeley, this sounds like a good one.
