<p>HEALDSBURG</p><p><MC>Restaurateur Rosen opens Campo Fina</p><p>Ari Rosen, chef/owner of Scopa on the Healdsburg Plaza, has opened a second restaurant just around the corner in the former Divine Affair space at 330 Healdsburg Ave.</p><p>Like Scopa, Campo Fina is shoehorned into a long, narrow space, but it opens up in the back to an airy European-style courtyard where you can play bocce and watch pizzas emerge from a wood-burning oven.</p><p>“It said 'secret garden' — a place that transported you outside of the known spots of Healdsburg,” Rosen said. “It demanded casual, sweet dining, like eating in your backyard.”</p><p>With the help of executive chef Jamil Peden, formerly of Petite Syrah in Santa Rosa, Rosen has crafted a menu of small plates inspired by Italian meals where dishes are passed around the table family-style.</p><p>“I'm really excited about what each of us is bringing to the table,” Rosen said. “The cuisine is a mix of Italian from a rustic right hand and a more refined left hand.”</p><p>In Italian, Campo means field and Fina means fine, as in elegant. The name is a tribute to Rosen and his wife Dawnelise's 2-year-old daughter, Serafina.</p><p>The menu includes Cichetti (little bites) such as Castelvetrano Olives ($5.50) and Honey Roasted Carrots ($6.50) and Antipasti such as Chicken Liver Paté with Peaches Agrodolce ($8.50) and Grilled Swordfish Spiedini with Roasted Cauliflower ($10.50).</p><p>Pizzas range from the classic Margherita with fresh mozzarella ($12.50) to Pizza Pork Belly with Smoked Bufala Mozzarella, Red Onion and Braised Pork Belly ($16.50).</p><p>The circa-1885 building, which served as The Palace saloon from 1895 to 1920, still boasts its original brick walls and wood floors. An extensive renovation of the space took nearly a year, and there are a total of 60 seats.</p><p>Campo Fina is open for dinner at 5:30 p.m. By the end of the month, it will be open continuously for lunch and dinner, from 11:30 a.m. to 10 p.m. Reservations are accepted for parties of eight or more. 395-4640.</p><p>SONOMA</p><p>Gloria Ferrer Caves & Vineyards to hold 20th Catalan Festival</p><p>Gloria Ferrer Caves and Vineyards will celebrate its 20th Catalan Festival from 11 a.m. to 4 p.m. Saturday and Sunday at the winery located in the windswept Carneros region.</p><p>The event, which showcases the winery's sparkling and still wines, is inspired by the spirit of the Spanish region around Barcelona.</p><p>There will be authentic Catalan and Spanish dishes, paella demonstrations, Flamenco dancers accompanied by guitar, grape stomps and wine seminars.</p><p>Tickets are $50, or $55 at the door.
