Mago is a Columbian restaurant tucked in Oakland’s Rockridge neighborhood. I tired the abbreviated tasting menu & it was great!
Food: 8/10
Ambiance: Fancy backyard vies - 8/10
Would I go back? Yes. I would go back and try the full tasting menu.

The restaurant has eclectic vibes and some really loud music, but the food is really unique. The menu changes frequently, so you’ll see something different every time you go.

The night started with a search for Bourbon & Branch and an intention to sneak my way into it without a reservation. All opinions are a little dated so take them with a grain of salt.
Quick Reviews: Routier SF
If you want a fancy ish meal but don’t want to spend the super big bucks, Rotier is a decent bet. It’s right off Divisadero in the Filmore District, so you can go for a scenic pre dinner walk.
Best Boba in the Bay Area
You will not believe how many terrible boba places I've experienced for the sake of this list. I've tried some of the worst boba so that you don't have to. You're welcome.

It's clear. I have a boba problem. I mean, just look at Bay Area Boba and Jasmine Milk Tea Recipe.

Napa Itinerary: Chill AF Wineries
Wine snobs are the at the top of the totem pole of snobbery. Wine tasting is about the wine AND the experience. Why go somewhere where you're scrutinized for your wine-ducation and treated poorly?
I'm an huge fan of Dutch Henry and Lava Vines, which are Calistoga wineries that don't have the chillest attitude and great wine.
