Hell yes!!

(These are mostly oriental food, but why would you want anything else??)

The **BEST** potstickers in the known universe:
Yat Sing, Redwood City (415)368-8888
Yat Sing, Los Altos (415)948-3393
Other things there are not quite as good, but it is an ABSOLUTE MUST!!

Chef Wang's hand-pulled noodle house
Castro St., Mountain View
Lots of good things there, particularly the hand-pulled noodle dishes

Fumi-Yoshi
ALL YOU CAN EAT japaneese, including SUSHI
(and it's good; I usually despise buffets)
El Camino Real, Just south of San Antonio Rd, Mountain View

The Little Garden (Chinese)
El Camino Real, near Charleston, Palo Alto

Thai Gardens (at the Palo Alto Bowl)
El Camino Real, Between San Antonio and Page Mill, Palo Alto

Florentine (Italian)
Castro St., Mountain View
El Camino between Lawerence Expy. and San Thomas Expy (I believe), Santa Clara

Hsi-Nan (Chinese)
24th St. and El Camino, San Mateo
(just don't lean on his tables because they break and Louie (the owner) will
charge you $100.00, he did us, and we *HAD* been doing business with him
for over 13 years)

Fondue Fred's
This is an absolute *MUST* even though it's a hell of a long drive
2556 Telegraph, Berkeley (510)549-0850

Chef Chu's (Chineese) (but it's not good value)
El Camino Real and San Antonio at the Los Altos/Palo Alto/Mountain View border
(Its technically on the corner that's in Los Altos).

Dude, I go to the bay area just to eat, often, and these are just some of the
places I have grown to know and love. Bon Apetit!!
