The Hit List: New East Bay Restaurants To Try Right Now - San Francisco - The Infatuation

"We’re grateful to any place that makes us intentionally drop the ball on responsibility, and relax until sundown. Mother Tongue is a coffee roasting company, and now an easy, fuss-free cafe and cocktail bar, in Oakland’s Temescal. Your double-header day starts with excellent espresso drinks (and pastries by Colonial Donuts and La Farine), best enjoyed on their front deck, or at the communal table under the disco ball. At night, transition into cocktails and wine, and chat with friends about culturally relevant things (“what is RICO?”) under the pink glow." - Julia Chen 1, Lani Conway, Ricky Rodriguez
