Food Scene

Here are some of our favorite places to eat in the neighborhood.
One of my favorite bakeries is on Lakeshore Avenue called Arizmendi Bakery. On Friday they have Sourdough Croissants. Everything is great there especially the pizza slices. It's an Oakland specialty.

If you are a runner or walker, the circling the lake is 3.5 miles. You will enjoy the beautiful view and peacefulness around the lake. On Saturday and Sunday many people picnic and barbeque. It's a hot spot of Oakland.
