Last day of 2011

Only a couple more hours until the new year! (2012) AHH I'm just going to make a quick post of all the things i've done so far this month. I'll just post up random pictures. This last week I've got to see a lot of friends i haven't seen for awhile and people i haven't seen for like a year! So that made me really happy. Well another year has ended which means anther year older haha. I've enjoyed every bit even if at times it suckkked and i'm grateful for all the people that stuck by me throughout the year, because they are the ones that honestly keep me sane. They know who they are. Whether or not the next year is good or bad i'll make the best out of it! :) Cheeeeeers to life and more memories! YOLO as drake would say.

Happy New years!

Love, Charisse

Mua bar & restaurant

Finally tried this restaurant located in downtown Oakland. I loved the theme of the restaurant kind of like a warehouse urban type theme + they had a DJ there so i really enjoyed that. The art work was also really neat and the food was good as well. I didn't order anything big, but i heard the mac and cheese was good and it turned out to be delicious. The fact that it's made out of butternut squash made me want to try it even more. I also got calamari, but that didn't taste as good as i thought it would. That'll probably give me an excuse to go there again to try something else on the menu. Overall, good place to go for a nice dinner with a group of friends, for a birthday or a place to bring your date.

Cafe 15 & Crazy, Stupid, Love

Today my lovely friend Lisa (click the name it leads to her blog!) and I went out on a lunch + movie date since we wanted to hang out before school starts next week. Lisa found two cafes to choose from and we decided to eat at Cafe 15, and yes the food was delicious. We both ended up getting the same thing which was the eggplant sandwich it has fresh mozzarella, tomatoes and pesto a side of house made pickles. We also shared  an order of rosemary fries. All of the food we got tasted good and even the water tasted good. Anywho, we watched Crazy, Stupid, Love because our love Ryan Gosling was starring in it and yes he was sexy and funny. We also did a mini photo-shoot more like an outfit of the day.

The HobNob!

My friend Erica and I decided to try a new place for dinner. I wanted to try this restaurant/bar called The HobNob the fries sound delicious and they make cocktails so perfect! We ordered the truffle fries which comes with parmesan & herbs, and side of truffle aioli and then got another type of fries which was basically the same thing, but since we have thing for fries we wanted them.. It's the chipotle garlic fries which has chipotle aioli on the side. We got the three cheese baked mac n' cheese which has mozzarella,tillamook cheddar, parmesan bacon and tuscan kale. Then we were tied between getting calamari or  spicy chicken wings, so we went with the spicy chicken wings. For dessert, we got chocolate brownie with vanilla ice cream i forgot the name of it, but i'll post the picture of the dessert menu. That was definitely the best part of the meal. I would recommend coming here with a group of friends for some drinks and snack type of foods. They do have some dinner plates but we didn't get to try them. I also got a pomagranitini, which was okay i don't think martini's are my kind of drink so i will be getting some other type of drink next time.
