POPSreview: Oasis Market & Restaurant, Oakland More: I've been in a few more times recently, and I still really like this place, but with some reservations. The biggest issue is the confusion behind the food counter; I don't know if it's a language issue, or just some new workers or both, but every time I've been in recently people seem to not be quite sure of what's going on, can't totally answer some simple questions, have made the wrong food, there have been long delays, forgotten items, things like that. So just pay close attention to your order when you go there for the meals, and bring your patience. There's also a little inconsistency; I've had great dolmas and kabobs there, but the last time I got each item they were both not quite right, the meat was tough and the dolmas were a little hard. The good: the falafels have been fantastic every time I've had them, the baba ganoush is the best that I've ever had, the pita is still pillowy and delicious…

POPS11 Ways To Use A Pumpkin More in the article . If you've never made a fresh pumpkin pie, you are missing out. And, by the way, most canned pumpkin is made of squashes, rather than actual pumpkin. Pumpkin from scratch is a bit of a pain, one has to puree it or it's a bit stringy, but it keeps well in the freezer, so it is worthwhile. I think so, anyway.
