Oakland’s Chinatown is great because it’s big, easy to get to, park in, there’s always a festival, performance, etc to catch. Peony restaurant is a huge dim sum place but there are other great places to go.

Oakland’s Museum is a hidden gem. Check out their website for exhibits and events.

Luka’s tap and bar room has pretty good dancing, great dinner, good selection of belgium beer and brunch.

What else do you like to do besides eat?
I just realized that’s all I focused on. Time for breakfast.

Susie, last December I went to the Oakland Museum to take in their Baseball exhibit. Awesome!! The Oakland Museum really does it right.
