"Following Couchdate's departure from its old Frank Ogawa Plaza spot in Downtown Oakland, Comfort Collective, a Black and queer-owned food, beverage, and event pop-up, has put down roots in the space. You can kick off your week with a Southern cuisine-inspired Sol Brunch on Sundays from 11a.m. to 4 p.m., and stay tuned on Instagram for more details on future events and pop-ups.

"After 14 years in North Oakland, James and the Giant Cupcake has moved into a new spot between Equator Coffee and Whole Foods on Bay Place. (The original location, at 6326 San Pablo Ave., will remain open until the end of the month.) Decadent flavors like red velvet and salted caramel grace the menu, plus gluten-free and vegan options. James and the Giant Cupcake also offers custom cakes for special events. James and the Giant Cupcake, 175 Bay Pl., Oakland"
"Stereo41, slotted to open Nov.15, is the latest project by the same folks behind World Famous Hotboys and neighboring Latin-Caribbean spot Lita. Unlike most other low-lit, sultry Bay Area listening bars, Stereo41 feels a bit more like a party, with live DJ sets accompanying omakase-style dining in a bright, festive setting."
