Brunch Sunday morning after USS Hornet

After we leave the Hornet on Sunday morning, the Banks family is going to go to a Thai Buddhist temple in Berkeley for brunch.  We've been there twice, and I'd highly recommend it if you don't have other plans.  Bring cash, and plan on spending $10-12 or more per person.  Picky eaters may not have the best time, but our kids have managed pretty well with Pad Thai and some of their desserts.  It gets very crowded, but the food is good, as is the cultural experience.  It is a real working temple, so if you take off your shoes and go upstairs, sometimes they have monks chanting on a microphone while members hand them gifts of food.  Just seeing the huge gold Buddha is worthwhile.
