Dinner begins with the famous ever- improving soup, and of course chips to tide you over. A dinner with two items (such as an enchilada and taco) are more than enough to fill nearly any appetite. The atmosphere is in- formal and friendly, but at times can seem cramped. " This is definitely a place to meet friends for lunch or din- ner and have a great time! " Chez Panisse Cafe 1517 Shattuck Continental and California Cuisine No reservations Price Range: $5 to $15 Upstairs from the famous Chez Panisse Restaurant is a cafe which has excelle nt food, but at a more reasonable price for the student budget. Also, the cafe doesn ' t have the month long reservation list. The sparse interior of the restaurant allows you to focus on the food. The service people are very attentive and knowledgable — dedicated to it as a profession. " The Cafe for those who want Chez Panisse type food at stu- dent prices. " Blue Nile Dwight & Telegraph Ethiopian No reservations Price Range: $3 to $7 The decor brings out as much of an African atmosphere as can be found in Berkeley. Although much of the food can be considered spicy, milder dishes can be found for those with more sensitive taste buds. All of the main dishes are served without knives and forks and are to be eaten by hand using injira, which is an Ethiopian style pancake. The food is great and is a definite eating experience SS% 51 ”
