Osha II

We had another Fridate and once again we ate at Osha. Let’s see we had the angel wings, dressed prawns, tuna stacked tartare. The volcano beef was incredible and let’s not forget the lychee martini.

Havana II

Tonight we met Jim & Kelly at Havana for dinner. The food was excellent as were the mojitos. Jim brought his Smart Car, I want one now. Of course I was early so I strolled downtown Alameda and took a couple of shots.

It’s another Fridate

Sandy had to pick up some chocolates for our Philippine trip so I took the ferry in and met her at Godiva. Well we decided to turn it into a date and had numerous appetizers at Osha.
