Okay, here's my 10, some not yet seen ;)

1. I think Namskaar is a heck of a lot better than Diva, and less pretentious.

2. I think Diesel is overrated. Honestly, I'd rather hang out in the McDonald's across from the Social Security Building -- I prefer the atmosphere there. No one's looking at me like I'm not hip enough.

3. I don't think Mike's is mediocre -- I think it's really bad. Six years ago I moved here from NYC, and someone brought me to Mike's on my first night to show me a Davis Sq. institution. I immediately had second thoughts about my relocation.

4. I'll go to the Subway on Elm St. if I feel like a sandwich.

5. I like Chipolte over Anna's. Sorry, but I think the meat is better, and again, I just don't think Anna's lives up to the hype.

6. I find the Rosebud the greatest diner travesty. Someone please buy that?

7. I always found about 4 out of 5 of the subway platform musicians terribly untalented.

8. I don't miss the Someday cafe.

9. I'm tired of the self-righteous cyclist attitude. I used to bike all the time. I drive more now than I bike, but still, it's a bit much, okay?

10.I found Gargoyle's to be overpriced for the quality(seems to be a real trend in Davis). It is still good quality and the chef is clearly talented, but I can't be paying $30 an entree and having a piece of chicken so overseasoned I can only taste seasoning and not the (very high quality) chicken breast.
