We heard about Duarte's, a dining tavern at Pescadero for a while and finally drove down the coast to give it a try. After a 45 min-wait for the seating, the food after all was not as good as expected. At least it was not as memorable as what other Pescadero has to offer.
After the meal, we were recommended by the local to visit Harley' Cheese Farm. Ryan was excited to pet the two-week-old baby goats and to feed them. They also offer cheese tasting in the nicely restored barn house with variety of beautifully handmade cheese, decorated with edible flowers and dried fruits.
A highlight of this trip was Ryan surprisingly being pecked by a chick in the berry farm in town. Despite our warning, he insisted poking his finger through the chicken wire to provoke the ducks. He thought he could retrieve his finger fast enough if the duck was going to peck him. Unfortunately, he didn't realize the little chicks were waiting low by the side....All I can say is another painful but precious lesson learned by him.
