Horn BBQ Menu - Oakland 2020 |
Take the Stones - Oakland 2020 |
Really rated high in the Yelp reviews. Well worth the wait! they say. But when we arrived at the Mandela Parkway address in Oakland, we could see that the line was long. Extremely long.
We got in line and started making a few inquiries. After talking to some fellow line-waiters up in front we quickly determined that the wait time was going to be, what? Hours? Maybe. Hard core foodies would think nothing of it, but Mike is not a foodie. Not being a foodie, he had to balance the minus factor of the time spent in line, against the supposed delights of the BBQ brisket. And, there was no bathroom to be seen.
So, we left and had Thai takeout lunch over at Margaret's. But that's not the end of the story! Hali's friend Kathy's husband is a foodie. After hearing our sad story he made his way to Oakland, waited in line, and got us some genuine Horn BBQ! Whoa!
It was good! But for Mike, saying that something was good doesn't do it justice, of course. You'll have to go to the Yelp reviews for higher, more informed praise.
