I am one who did not care for most of CA. I did like Susanville but we were
only there for the night. I might not want to live there. The food was
good. I don't remember getting too many bad meals there. Probably my
favorite place was the Buttercup Kitchen in Oakland. But they had huge
portions. So that was a drawback for me. Angela and I would split a meal
and it would look like we hadn't eaten anything. If my husband came with
us, the three of us could split something and he could add a cup or soup or
a dessert and it was just the right amount.
