If you grew up in the Bay Area, you must have spent time in Santa Cruz.  The area has changed over the past two decades, but still retains its vacation feel.  Everywhere you look, people are strolling or riding their bikes, in casual clothes with a…More »

What is it with the incredible bakeries on the coast?  How can I possibly keep the pounds off and look great in a bikini if I'm constantly being tempted by all the treats these local beach people are baking?  At Gayle's, the pastries are absolutely…More »

Recently updated lists from Sherri C.

When Romance is in the Air... (12)

...these are some of the places guaranteed to serve up a memorable experience for that special occasion.

Reasonable South Bay Dining Options (36)

Places you can visit regularly for decent meals without breaking the bank.

Ramen From South Bay to South Bay (17)

Until there's more time to Yelp, here's the short list of ramen places I've been to from SF to LA.

In Search of the Perfect Cupcake (20)

I cannot possibly try all the new cupcakeries that are popping up all over the place; I would be fatter than high school Monica on Friends.  But here are some places I've tried.

Late Night Places (6)

In search of places to eat after 9:00 pm, these are the restaurants where we often end up.

O Canada (13)

It could be the refreshing mountain air, the high altitude, or the fact that Canadian cooks are often of European descent.  I found Rocky Mountain cuisine to be above-average delicious and the bread served at every restaurant was unique and awesome.

Sherri's Bay Area Sushi and Sashimi Experiences (59)

Fresh fish is not a luxury, but a must-have, and after downing this staple at least two or three times a week, I still don't have as extensive a list as I should.  Maybe I need to up my intake frequency...

The One-Star List (14)

Most of the time I don't want to bother writing about the one-stars and when I do, it's probably because I wished I could give the place no stars or negative star ratings!

So Much to Do with So Little Time in Vegas... (48)

I've gone to Vegas so often you'd think I'd be bored of it, but every time I visit it is usually for a company event or tradeshow with not much time to check things out.  Also, the Strip seems to be in a constant state of new construction so it's never quite the same each time.

Palo Alto Places (18)

Some of my favorite places in PA to eat or hang out...
