    Dinner after Patinkin and Lupone!

    . But this is just good cooking artfully done. Two of the service staff we spotted were from Joe's and we even met one of the owners, Jasmine, who is also involved with Joe. You know I was worried about arriving late (for that...

    Healthy Fast Food (remembering Delites Chain)

    I was such a fan of the DeLites concept that, while there were none near where I was living, I bought a few shares of stock. Lost every nickel. Maybe they were just ahead or their time and/or shouldn’t have started in...

    More on "To go" and other charges.

    about a nickel on each dollar of sales. So, using that formula, let’s say you order a $7.00 meal to go, the restaurant stands to make .35 cents profit from that sale. Now you toss in a “to go” box that costs a...

    Has anyone been to Speranza, the new-ish place on Hyperion near Gelson’s and Trader Joes? It used to be Caffe Capri, which I loved the two times I went there. Wondering how the new place compares.

    Catalina - Avalon...whats the best place for dinner

    Buffalo Nickel is a local favorite. It’s out around the point, South of Avalon. I think they have a van service that will pick you up downtown or you can walk. It’s about a mile out but a nice stroll, either to or...

    Dining in Avalon

    cookie was a little stale. Coyote Joe‘s - really more of a bar with dining tables, it is possible that some fun-lovin’ people really like the food or the margaritas here, but as a digestion-lovin' person, I would...

    Where is the good dim sum in Oakland chinatown?

    doesn’t equal the price. Ok, it’s nickels and dimes maybe, but at least the service is better at Legendary times that I’ve been. Shrimp is tastier at Legendary, not overly salty and they have a cruch/spring when...

    Why is TJ's so cheap?

    Back home, we had a couple of “cheaper” supermarket – Safeway, QFC, etc. - and yet their cheese prices were a good 2-3 times that of Trader Joe's. TJ’s always fascinates me. It looks like an expensive,...
