m .i ' short course in cafe etiquette should be mandatory for incoming freshmen. Which cafe has the best cappucino? Where can you find a bianca mocha? Do you tip the guys who bus the tables? Is it proper to share a table when the cafe is crowded? What ' s the difference between cafe latt ' e and cafe au lait? Which cafe has the best bathroom graf fiti? What ' s the scene like at Milano, Strada, and Bottega? Cafis are probably better than bars for meeting people in Berkeley. A few knowing glances across a foamy latt ' e could lead to a heady conversation on anything from the imminent self-destruction of capitalism to the best place to buy fresh fruit in Provence. They ' re also the best spot for eavesdropping — with the tables so close together, no one would even notice if you leaned in a bit closer and took notes for your next short story. Here are a few tips for the uninitiated: sharing tables is expected when space gets short; a latt ' e has espresso and steamed milk, white cafe au lait just means coffee withmilk.

bool2Sto Les allege towns are known for their book- stores, and Berkeley is no different. Cody ' s and Black Oak have all sorts of famoiLs authors (like Ken Kesey) come to speak, and a scene from The Graduate was filmed across from Moe ' s. We ' ve also got Shakespeare Co. and Revolution Books, to name a few, as well as the more standard textbook outlets like Ed Hunolt ' s, and of course, the ASUC Bookstore. Whether you ' re searching for an out-of- print collection of Goya ' s paint- ings of war (try Moe ' s), a handbook on psychedelic herbs (Cody ' s), or a collection of Poe ' s short stories (Hunolt ' s), you ' re sure to find it somewhere. Best of all, no one minds if you tug a book off the shelf, plop down on the floor, and read it cover to cover (as long as you ' re not blocking an aisle). 23
