taking the show on the road friday for another summer zip trip as our crew touched down in pleasanton, ktvu sal castaneda had the tough assignment of trying out a few of pleasanton's favorite restaurants. >> although main street isn't the only place to find good food in pleasanton, it's a great place to start. just find the big pleasanton sign and you are walking distance from a lot of

good places to eat and drink. this downtown area boasts beautiful old brick buildings and a small town feel. the sidewalks are busy and the weather is good, so that means several places have outdoor seating. on a recommendation, i started at brava garden eatery, an argentinian italian restaurant run by a couple originally from buenos aires. >> we created the menu together, family recipes, or childhoods, main view from my old grandma. moms, dads. wow. empanadas enjoy, guys. >> empanadas and pastas are made from scratch and people enjoy that and more on a beautiful outdoor back patio. >> they've just created such a lovely, welcoming vibe. i came for my birthday or i come for a little date nights. it's a really awesome place to be. they have a lemon ravioli. it's like with ricotta. it's really fresh, really unique. and they also have empanadas, which is argentinian. so the combo of italian and argentinian food,

it's really unique. >> husband and wife owners, german and yanina have a hand in everything here. they'll greet you at the door or even make you a drink. their attention to detail shows on the day we came, they had a special short rib sandwich on the menu that was very popular. speaking of drink, i had german shake me up one of their house special craft cocktails. the presentation of the hibiscus bandam is a good one. it's named after the action hero, jean-claude van damme that does kick like van damme. see? okay, now what about a good old fashioned pizza parlor? gay 90s has you covered inside, it's decorated with historic newspapers and old signs, so it has a lot of that nostalgia where people who went to high school here in the 60s, 70s, 80s, you know, they still come in now and they say, man, this place hasn't changed. >> and so there's comfort in knowing that it's going to be the same as it was 30 years ago. 40 years ago. >> gay 90s pizza is a great place for families, actually,

today is the last day of school. >> so we came here to celebrate. >> the pizza looked and smelled so good. i wanted to order one and watch them make it from stretching the dough all the way to it coming out of the oven. all right, so the real measure of a place is what their salami sausage combo tastes like. all right. and i'm about to find out this pizza has that old school neapolitan taste. i grew up with crispy sourdough crust and gooey cheese with generous toppings. and there's one more thing. some of the locals say the history of the building leads to a friendly ghost showing up every now and then, which adds to the fun. general manager connor close says this building, built in 1864, was a brothel. >> at some point, the story of the ghost is that the madam of the brothel was killed and lingers and, you know, kind of looks over the place. she's a friendly ghost. every couple of years, something will fall off the shelf or a chair will pull

out, or you hear banging on something. and like i said, they're few and far between. but when they happen, it's. it's not scary. it's really cool. >> sal castaneda ktvu fox two news. you know, sal goes down in one day and eats at all those restaurants. >> i don't know how he does it all, but i wish you bring some home to us and be sure to join us on our next zip trip. we will head on a thursday night, a friday 4th of july, to the city of alameda. they also have a big parade that will be streaming. it will be on ktvu the nine and then the parade from ten to news. check us out. coming up a week from thursday on the big holiday. >> how fun. >> oh yeah. and you're a you're a pleasanton gal. yeah. a few familiar restaurants there. >> oh, lots. i want to take you also over to oyo restaurant. it's south american cuisine and it has such a wonderful flair. you went to brava as well. you just go up and down main street and eat your way through town. mexico lindo. that's another fabulous favorite of mine.

wherever you go today, make sure you have ac if you're heading out to pleasanton, we have the alameda county fair and we have a heat advisory in effect, because that particular area will top off at 100 degrees when you have the heat from the asphalt right there at the fairgrounds. that's when it really radiates. so make sure no kids left in the car, no pets as well. and please stay hydrated if you live in any one of these highlighted counties, you are under that heat advisory for today. along the coast. it's so refreshing with that right there. it's a typical summer morning here in the bay area with the stratus lining the sea shore, the full on sunshine inland. no june gloom later today along the beaches, we will see all of this retreat. however, only some partial clearing around montara beach backing through monterey bay temperatures today right now 50 santa rosa to 56. in clayton and in concord, it's 57 degrees in palo alto and in east palo alto, right around atherton and woodside. in the low 50s. later

we will talk about these winds picking up out of the northwest. it's an offshore push to 15mph that lowers the relative humidity as the heat goes up and it does escalate and elevate the fire danger. so today will be the hottest day of the weekend. tomorrow these temperatures come down a good five, eight, potentially even ten degrees as high pressure begins to traverse an easterly direction and our temperatures will be going up today. nothing like what they're experiencing in the northeast. however, where over 100 million people are suffering from excessive heat. today's forecast high temperatures anywhere from 65 degrees. in pacifica. we will see the clearing in ocean beach today. low 70s in the city, mid to high 80s around the peninsula. we're talking 88 degrees in american canyon and also backing through sonoma into napa, 100 degrees in fairfield, travis mountain house, rio vista, antioch and pittsburg as well. tri-valley easily 100 to

minimum 15,000 meals. we will be serving per month. >> they've come a long way. 11 years ago, community seva started in san jose when nathan ganesh lost his job in tech. he began bringing his family to the park to feed the homeless. soon others wanted to help too. >> once the word of mouth spread in the community and people started reaching out. and how do we do this? >> eventually they had more than 3000 volunteers feeding the hungry and helping the homeless. they were offering blankets and sleeping bags, socks and shoes, hygiene kits and showers. but they relied mostly on shelter kitchens for cooking and that was unreliable. >> we were always compromising in the kitchens we were in. like either the oven wouldn't work or the stove wouldn't work. >> and so the hunt began. for a space of their own. it took four years. during this time, ganesh had met robert egger, the co-founder of world central kitchen, who encouraged him to forge ahead. >> if anything, all i've really been able to do is give a little bit of inspiration, a little bit of guidance when it's needed. but, you know, people like

nathan, man, they're just ready to run. they just need somebody to say, you're not crazy. you can do this. and yes, it's smart. >> and so they signed a lease and they're hiring staff to get this commercial kitchen operational. >> it feels wonderful. it feels wonderful because we're able to now give more to the community. >> they say the need is greater than ever, but they'll be able to host more volunteers here. make more meals and do more good. >> everything is new for us, but you know there is a start somewhere we have to start and we are ready for it. >> there will be a special ribbon cutting ceremony for the new kitchen this weekend. community seva expects it to be up and running by august 1st in santa clara and ruben ktvu, fox two news coming up, newark police respond to calls of a man threatening people and they say when officers arrive, that suspect pulled out a gun. >> and don't forget to answer our question of the day. are you glued to your phone during vacation? the answers are here.
