Crossing the Bridge

Leaving San Francisco is never fun because there’s always traffic, you gotta pay toll, and why leave the city when everything you need is right here.  One reason to leave is the city of Berkeley which is commutable, diverse.  There’s the Gourmet Ghetto, fabulous dining options, Cal sports. Seriously, check it out.  

We went on Saturday night and ended up at the Albatross which I forget how much I love. Berkeley has 4th Street for shopping and brunch, the Albatross, the Mallard…for drinks.  It’s too fun.  Go!

    I'd also chime in with brunch at Picante on 6th Street at Gilman. Just went there yesterday. It had been ages. Yummy!
