Time:

	Thursday, August 12th, 7:30 pm

Place:

	Spenger's Fish Grotto
	1919 Fourth Street
	Berkeley
	510-845-7771
 
Description:
 
	We've been to Spenger's before, but not in a long time.  In
	fact, not in about four years.  Traditional surf and turf,
	with emphasis on 'surf.'  This will also be the last time
	Kabuki attends Spenger's, because they're closing for good
	soon.  Entrees run twelve to fourteen, and go as high as
	twenty if you're trying.  Salads run the now fairly routine
	five bucks a pop.

	Kabuki last attended Spenger on April 90th of 1990.

Directions:
 
    Short:

	Spenger's is just off of 80 Eastbound in Berkeley.  Use the
	University ave exit and then follow signs to the access road
	instead of going over the overpass, which drops you down onto
	sixth street.

    Transit:
 
	Take bart to the Berkeley station.  Walk two blocks north to
	University ave and catch a bus down to sixth.  Walk two
	blocks further to fourth and turn one half block to the
	right.

    Long:

	Take your route of choice to 80 Eastbound in Berkeley.  Take
	the University ave exit, then follow signs to the access road
	rather than to University ave.  Take your first available
	right once you're off the freeway and the offramp.  Travel
	one block east to fourth street, turn right and park.
	Spenger's is within a block, and there's a phenomenal amount
	of parking.
