Oakland Sweet Spirit & Beyond Food Tour
Just in time for the spooky season, the Oakland Sweet Spirit & Beyond Tour is an adventure filled with cupcakes, cocktails, and a guided walk through two cemeteries. This tour is not your typical Oakland ghost tour. This 90-minute cemetery tour highlights some of Piedmont Avenue's hidden gems including the final resting places of the Bay Area's most famous and infamous residents. Whether you're interested in the "boos" or the booze, this is a must-go event for all guests 21 and over during the Halloween season in Oakland. Screaming for more information?

Shakewell's Jen Biesty is the New "Chopped" Champion
Co-owner of Shakewell, Jen Biesty, can now add "Chopped" champion to her already impressive resume. She won the September 17 episode of Food Network's "Chopped" with the theme titled, "Weird, Wacky, and Wild!," where contestants competed to prove their culinary skills with outrageous ingredients. This makes the second win from an Oakland chef on "Chopped," but who's counting?
