A tablehopper reader tipped me off that ADDIE’S PIZZA PIE is now open in Berkeley. Berkeleyside has more details: the project is from Jennifer Millar of Sweet Adeline Bakeshop and Thomas Schnetz of Flora, serving almost ten kinds of New York-style pies, along with three kinds of frozen custard. Dinner Wed-Sun. 3290 Adeline St. at Alcatraz, Berkeley, 510-547-1100.
And starting tonight, September 28th, TRADER VIC’S EMERYVILLE will reopen its doors after closing in April for a remodel. Look for a larger lounge area and an additional banquet room, new furniture, and even more rum cocktails. 9 Anchor Dr. at Powell, Emeryville, 510-653-3400.
