tower cafe -- 1518 Broadway, Sacramento, CA 95818
- madame cristo with an order of the potatoes is delicious !
- if you have room, order their french toast which is eggy with a brulee finish.

vic`s ice cream -- 3199 Riverside Blvd, Sacramento, CA 95818 [on the way to the freeway from tower cafe]
- old fashioned ice cream in a friendly neighborhood

shoki II ramen -- 1201 R St, Sacramento, CA 95811
- this location is much more accommodating than their original one and they accept credit. 

a taste of jamaica

ever since i came to stockton, i have always wanted to try the breadfruit tree. i kept hearing about the amazing "jamaican jerk chicken" and "sweet chili fish". yes, it is amazing and it`s a must if you haven`t been. with 19 people, we chose to do family style that cost $17.95/per person.
