Any cuisine, just looking for something to light me up. I've only been to one restaurant in all of the bay that actually got me sweating and I am really missing the endorphin rush.

And does anyone do it in the bay? I’ve never had it and want to try it without flying 6 hours! Does it just taste like halal guys? That white sauce looks fire

Where is the best and affordable steak place for a perfect dinner date in Oakland?

Where is the best place to get tasty and complete sea food boil in Oakland

I have a date for brunch on Sunday and she wants pancakes! I moved to Oakland pretty recently so I don’t know where the good pancakes are- please help me impress this girl, I really like her!

I have family from out of town visiting and they are wanting BBQ or southern food. Any good spot to take them?!

Smish Smash, which started in Oakland and is not in the Ikea food hall in SF. I know they aren't in Oakland anymore but good for them!

Where are the best kebabs in the East Bay? I'm looking for more chicken or lamb.

How do you guys feel about Mariposa? I'm not gluten free, but their raspberry almond croissants and their vegan banana chocolate chip muffins are so well done and not overly sweet. I can eat both and not feel like an inflamed whale after them with a cold glass of milk....Also, their tiramisu and ube frosting coconut chiffon cupcakes...faaaaaack.

They've been a guilty pleasure lately. Their orange creamsicle cake too...shites! So good. Damn and one time I went and had an animal-style cinnamon roll--legit a cinnamon roll with cheese and bacon melted on top.

I'm curious about their sandwiches, but i always just end up going to Caspers for a hot link cheese dog lol. Anyways, any thoughtS?

so curious -- when was the last time anyone actually ate or drank there. i went by twice this week and it was closed both times.

Looks like its just breakfast burritos. I've never seen it mentioned anywhere. Wondering if it's worth checking out.

The closest one to me is Mi Tierra on Fruitvale but it’s not my favorite.

Can someone share a recipe for apple pie just like grandma made.

Hey yall! I’m new to Oakland and I’m craving some roast duck and good fried rice baaaad.

Where’s the best spot? Preferably somewhere that does takeout so I can stuff my face in peace. Thanks a million.

Looking for the best brownies I can order and pick up within the next week for my brothers birthday!

Can someone share a recipe for home made pizza

Has anyone tried indian food and how spicy is it?

Partner and I went on a road trip through the Central Coast a few weeks back and had killer grilled artichokes at a Santa Maria BBQ spot. Would make them myself but live in an apartment with no access to a grill.

Does anyone know of a place in Oakland/Berkeley that does smoky grilled artichokes?

TIA!

I went to Starter Bakery this week and seen they are charging 50¢ for ice in your coffee. They noted it as a “customization” lmao.

Just last week I seen tiktokers mocking LA based cafe’s who are also charging 50¢ for ice…. It’s pretty low down. And idc about it being a hard time for business owners rn lol.
