Intimate, personal, fun but refined: It’s not easy to find a restaurant in Rocklin that answers to these descriptors. But The Chef’s Table is it. For those in the know, the place is a secret hideaway. Reservations are recommended for table service, but it’s just as much fun to sit at the bar (just make sure to get there early). The menu, which focuses on farm-fresh ingredients, changes often, but it might include appetizers like beer-battered pesto fries and main dishes such as fried chicken and a center cut pork chop served with Wehani rice. For dessert, look out for the decadent house-made bacon brownie sundae with caramel sauce and vanilla ice cream.
