East Bay by Limousine

It's too easy to drive across the Bay Bridge into San Francisco. What's challenging is making an elegant evening of it right here in Oakland. Hiring a US Coachways limousine is the first ingredient; once you have a long, luscious limo at your disposal, elegance is assured. Now to find an evening's worth of cool stuff to do right within the Oakland city limits.

For starters, a spicy and delicious dinner at Mrs Wasabi's, easily found at 1611 Second Avenue in the heart of Oakland. Don't let the ultra-casual storefront fool you- Mrs Wasabi serves up some of the most splendid Asian cuisine this side of Kyoto. Eat heartily and save your fortune cookies to read in the limousine, as you're whisked across town to the Embarcadero.

An hour or two at the Jack London Lounge is always time well spent. If you read London's books as a child, you're already aware of him. If you've not yet perused the pages of such classics as The Call of the Wild, White Fang, and The Sea-Wolf, make a mental note to do so right away. The Jack London Lounge is both relaxing and stimulating, and before long you're sure to be up for dancing. It's just great to not have to worry about driving through Oakland- simply ease into the super-deluxe leather seating of your limousine and watch the city lights flash past as your dedicated driver delivers you safely and surely to Club Radio, located at 435 13th Street, downtown Oakland.

Club Radio is a favorite nightspot for both locals and visitors- anyone in the mood for some fast-paced, jammin' sounds and a big, smooth dance floor. Party as hard as you want to, knowing that your devoted, uniformed driver will get you back home in one piece whenever you give the word. Doing the town -any town- by limousine is an affordable elegance and the safest way to party with friends.

Eventually evening this night must come to a close, but not before one last mug of delicious, steaming cappuccino. Ask your driver to take the party 'round to the Asmarina Cafe at 6101 Shattuck Avenue for quiet conversation and heartfelt goodnights. See? Hiring a limo for the evening was such a good idea- and one that you're bound to repeat as soon as you can.
