Alex Filippenko wins again for being a crazy, awesome dude, the Bear’s Lair prevails as Berkeley’s best bar, and Chez Panisse still owns everyone and their mother. Which of these does not belong?
You’ve voted (or turned up your nose and refused to have anything to do with the process — either way), and the results are out. The Best of Berkeley 2008 results are up, and everything that won really is just a flipflop shuffle from the Units.
But the real upset comes at the bottom of the campus category: the Daily Cal’s own arts editorial staff chose our blogging cohorts at the OTR over yours truly. Shock! Awe! Good on you, OTR. In the meanwhile, we’re just going to be in this here corner dabbing at our jealous tears with a lacy handkerchief.

Admit it. You’re going to miss Berkeley just a little bit this spring break. If you find yourself dreaming of dollar curry or collective pizza indigenous only to B-town, take a break from sleeping in and vote in the Best of Berkeley.
Tell the Daily Cal you love the Clog, tell the paper what else you love in your neighborhood. It’s up to you to defend all things gastronomically sacred in Berkeley–the best Indian in town (hint: it’s not Naan-N-Curry), the spiciest burrito that won’t empty your wallet, the richest cup of joe (certainly not from The Den). You’ve got to participate to make sure the results don’t suck, i.e. all the besties are within a flipflop shuffle from the Units.
You can also remind yourself to vote (and tell all your friends too) if you join the Facebook event. Voting ends Monday, Apr. 7, and then the Daily Cal will release a special issue highlighting the student body’s faves.
