I haven’t posted anything to this blog, or my other one, because I’ve been gone for the last week. Mike and I went down to Southern California, left Mika with my parents and took a 4-day cruise. It was relaxing and the food decent, though not actually good 🙂 I hope to write more about the cruise and the food I’ve had lately, we’ll see if I can manage the time.
Anyway, I just posted two reviews of San Leandro restaurants that I wrote before I left.
The Blue Dish is a small deli-like restaurant serving light American, Middle Eastern and Mexican menus. We tried the Middle Eastern stuff (prepared by a Latino cook) and our experience was mixed: Mike like his salad while I felt my shawerma was overwhelmed by the tahini sauce.
The Sandwitchery is, as it name suggests, a sandwich joint. They offer a large variety of sandwiches which are better, and more expensive, than those at the chains (there is a Subway and a Quiznos nearby) but otherwise not remarkable.
On a final note, I’ve heard that Cafe Zula closed. I’m not surprised given its out-of-the-way location and a menu that did not justify its prices. Unfortunately it isn’t going to be replaced by another (better) restaurant, Trader Sports has expanded into that space.

My website and this blog have changed url’s! From now on, you’ll be able to find this blog at http://www.marga.org/food/blog/ and all my food pages at http://www.marga.org/food/ The old url’s will be automatically redirected.
And you thought my blog obsession was over (at last count I have ten active blogs). Alas, it’s not. My need to divide and subdivide, categorize and subcategorize is such that this blog obsession will only be over when MT (movable type, the company that creates the bloggins software) or someone else comes up with software that allow for subcategories. Now, wouldn’t that be great? I could consolidate all blogs into two or three (one business, one personal, maybe one Spanish). Until then, more blogs it is.
And this one is on food. If you read my regular blog you know that I write a lot about food. Food is both a necessity and a hobby. As it’s something that must be consumed daily, it’s easy to obsess about it. As it’s something that must be consumed daily, it’s easily to de-obsessed. After all, it’ll always be here.
With a new blog, I’ll be able to categorize better. Recipes separate from restaurant reviews separate from restaurant reviews. Of course, it would be still better if I could subcategorize here as well, but c’est la vie. I’ll keep dreaming.
So come on in, read my blog and tell me what you think.
