I had a very nice working lunch today at ...

Le Cheval right about here in downtown Oakland.

Yes, there was a bronze horse (le cheval de bronze) just inside the door.

The host of our lunch was Shane Seitz from Quest.

I had the "Singapore Style Noodles with Beef (spicy)". It was more yummy than spicy.

I felt very safe at lunch as we were surrounded by the Oakland Police Department SWAT Team - eating their own lunches of course.
