LEARN
We love film and honestly watch movies very, VERY frequently. One of our favorite things to do together is watch a film that has interesting insight into humanity, delves into deeper truth and philosophy, tells us something new about the world or involves some form of a vampires in a postapocalyptic world. The following are our favorite places to go in Oakland for a movie and where we would enjoy having a discussion afterwards.
Paramount Theater
Where: Broadway (Uptown)
Why: Movie classics, Art Deco, Dec-O-Win, Mighty Wurlitzer organ, 5 bucks...Why not?
After: Xolo for late night tacos or Era Art Bar for beer and spirits in a lovely atmosphere

Grand Lake Theater
Where: Grand Ave.
Why: Historic theater, best sign around town, fun atmosphere for a blockbuster's opening night
After: Boot and Shoe Service for cocktails and pizza (the meatballs are a must if available)

Piedmont Theater

Things We Like
In Love with Piadine
November 9, 2011
The Italian cuisine is known and loved all over the world. It is comfort food that is delicious, fresh and seasonal. Even the pickiest of eaters won’t turn down fresh pasta or perfectly cooked pizza. It is our absolute favorite, and after this recent trip we fell more deeply in love with the cibo of Italy.

Wallpaper
Italian Cinema
November 11, 2011
Something is lovely about black and white photography. It tells a story in a way that color doesn’t. Through simplicity it explains complex ideas. I always find myself looking at black and white photos longer than color images. Maybe my eyes are less overwhelmed?
