It's risky to try out new restaurants when you're having a party, but I did. And the result was more than I had hoped for.
I chose Tanglewood for my father's birthday party because I remembered walking by it at Santana Row. It looked quite hip with its indoor and outdoor seating that blended together when its large windows were open.
Then I checked out Tanglewood's menu online. Fabulous! Their cuisine celebrates the rich diversity of nature. The dishes are created using the day's best seasonal ingredients, all naturally grown and raised on local sustainable farms, ranches and fisheries. The prices were even moderate to boot.
Everyone at my father's birthday party was impressed with the food. Tanglewood delivered what it promised.
As for the ambience, they put us in their private party room with a roaring fireplace. It was perfect on that cold winter night.
If you go to Tanglewood, I recommend starting with the skillet melted cheese. It's grilled rustic bread, melted cheese, roasted Gilroy garlic with extra virgin olive oil.
Tanglewood is located at 334 Santana Row, Suite 1000, in San Jose, Calif. The telephone number is (408) 244-0464 or go to http://www.tanglewood.com/

Santana Row's Taryn Rose offers comfortable deals
I just returned from Taryn Rose at Santana Row with two bargains! I bought black boots and brown and patent leather heels --- both were 65 percent off.
Most of these stylish Italian shoes ring in at a minimum of $250 and go to $1,200. But my tab for two was $208.80. Not bad!
If you'd like to partake in this shopping deal, I recommend asking for Joy's assistance at the Santana Row store. She tracked down my sizes at other Taryn Rose stores. That's unusual during a sale!
The famed footwear founded by orthopedic surgeon Taryn Rose is built on an asymmetrical form, allowing for full arch support, decreased fatigue and added ankle stability. Plus there's Poron cushioning, which acts like a shock absorber.
Taryn Rose is located at 333 Santana Row, Suite 1105, in San Jose, Calif. The phone number is (408) 615-8100 or go to www.TarynRose.com
