Mike finally returned to me a few restaurant reviews I wrote early this year. He edits them for me, as he thinks my prose is definitely in need of help. These are:

Adagia is nice restaurant in Berkeley with a dining room that looks like an Ivy League cafeteria. Good food too.

Le Cheval is a popular Oakland Vietnamese eatery, its food wasn't as good as I remembered, though.

Spettro is another popular Oakland restaurant, this time eclectic Italian. I liked it.

Fringale is an upscale French Basque restaurant in the city. Our dinner was good if uneven.

and finally

Angelinas has become our favorite place for a pizza with the kids, not in the least because they are very child friendly.
