Truffle Fries - Love love love it! Egg's Benedict - Their beloved benedicts.  I like it and the tomato sort of paste complements that egg and hollandoise sauce.  The Yukon potatoes is good too but really love the Truffle Fries. Burger It was good but nothing spectacular We changed for a Truffle Fries!!

European Delivery Program (Buying Cars with a Free European Vacation

This is a tip for buying cars If you are buying one of those premiere European car brands, you might want to check out their Tourist European Delivery Programs.  You can get a car by going to their headquarters, get a test drive, and at the same time get a "free vacation."  Sometimes, it might turn out slightly cheaper, though you have to wait for them to ship your car. According to my colleague, this is good for them since taxes are different from "new" versus your personal "used" cars. More info of the European Delivery Programs " If you're like most people, you love getting a new car but hate haggling with the dealer. One way to put some fun into car buying is to take advantage of a European delivery program. Each of the major European brands except Volkswagen has one. You'll get a discount on the car as well as travel perks, and you'll be able to use your new wheels to tour the Continent.   Here's how it works: Order your

Spring Training 2016 @ Joaquin Miller

Image
Address: Joaquin Miller, Oakland May 15, 2016 One of those seemingly hippies kind of party in the bay area.  It's like a much much smaller scale burning men.  According to my friend, they are neither hippies nor hipsters, they are "burners." They are supposed to be halfway to hippies or the more modern hippies, and they are the "burning man" folks. My friend describes it... they wear interesting tights, anything leather (but not leather jackets) and usually vest, interesting hat, or furs. Quora says they are just hippies though. https://www.quora.com/Whats-the-difference-between-a-burner-Burning-Man-attendee-and-a-hipster Honestly, they just look like ALL HIPPIES to me!!! Music: A bit slightly danceable songs.. better hear it from the Youtube below. They did have missy Elliot at the end though.  As written in Facebook https://www.facebook.com/events/231102683926744/ False Prof

Ramen Shop @Oakland, SF

Website:   http://www.ramenshop.com/ Address:   5812 College Ave, Oakland, CA 94618 Food Rating: 3.5 out of 5 stars Feedback: More like a trendy ramen shop serving seemingly nice cocktails.  I don't really like it as it's slightly a bit trendy for its taste.  I think they put a fusion/twist to it but not good at it.  I heard their original ramen is better.   Also. slightly expensive, like 18 - 20 for a ramen and you have to add pork chasu for another 4 dollars. Ranch Beef Shoyu Ramen Slightly a bit weird as with a BEEF soup.  Honestly, not that great. Spicy Tantanmen A bit weird being added all sorts of American Veggies, like peas, beans, carrots.
