The San Francisco Chronicle "Tasting Panel" rated whole grain mixes this morning. Unfortunately, the winning mix (Arrowhead Mills Multigrain)is not SB legal (corn flour) but my Kodiak Cakes were the runner up.
I'm not very familiar with Oakland though I have crossed the bridge to eat at some really special restaurants. Have you ever been to Dona Tomas? I have some very fond memories of their shrimp tacos.
I love Dona Tomas! We go there relatively often and every meal has been great. They recently opened a new restaurant, Flora, which is also worth the drive. Its not Mexican, more of a casual Californian with a great cocktail list. The neighborhood is, um, changing.
I love the taco place too, esp. for brunch. Let me know what you think of Flora! The food is similar to Nopa (I think that's fairly near you since you said you were by Andronicos) but its much smaller and I prefer the atmosphere at Flora.
