5-9:30pm—What £an you say about a restaurant named

if you've never had a Tsing Tao beer, you should try it;
$-$$, cc, V
35 McCallum's—1825 Solano Avenue, 525-3510—Weekdays until 11pm, Fri-Sat until 12midnight; McCallum's
is an ice cream shop on one side and a cafe on the
other—sandwiches, coffee, and the best non-Italian ice
cream in the East Bay. I once watched my son and six of
his friends devour a concoction called, appropriately
enough, The Kitchen Sink—they even managed to
finish it.
San Pablo Avenue
36 Everett & Jones—1955 San Pablo Avenue—the hottest
ribs in town. Limited sitdown facilities, but if you like
good, spicy, blow-your-head-off Southern ribs and
links, this is the place. Their sauce comes labelled
Mild, Medium, and Hot; mild is mild, medium is
medium, and the hot sauce is used by our local
safecrackers; $
37 Kimchee Cabana—938 San Pablo Avenue (near Solano)
525-1350—Korean food, well done, good service, and
one of the prettiest restaurants in town; $-$$, cc, V

Further Off
39 Narsai's—385 Colusa Avenue, Kensington, 527-7900—
reservations mandatory—A beautiful continental restaurant for people with a large stash—great wine list,
good cooking, full bar, definitely an evening-gown
place, although like most Berkeley restaurants, fancy
dress is not required. They have a deli next door where
you can buy, among other things, a delightful flight
lunch to pack along on your next airline trip—now
that's class; $$$$, cc
40 Mexicali Rose—701 Clay Street, Oakland, 451-2450—
10am-3:30am—Funky, clean, noisy, capacious, capable
of seating a party of almost any size. Good Mexican
food, fast service, adequate parking, and it's two blocks
from the police station. In downtown Oakland, that's
an asset; $, cc—full bar.
41 Chez Lucien—1739 Broadway, Oakland, 834-7363—A
small, pleasant French restaurant; the last time I dined
there, they served a Potage St. Germaine to die over;
(, cc—reservations strongly advised.
