ill’s Cafe has been doing a brisk business serving breakfast in the Bay Area for more than three decades. What started as one family-owned breakfast joint in San Jose’s Willow Glen neighborhood in 1977 has grown to seven locations, including its newest outpost in Palo Alto’s Midtown neighborhood. There’s something for everyone at Bill’s, but try not to panic when browsing the extensive menu. There are more than 20 kinds of omelets and scrambles, six types of Belgian waffles, seven versions of French toast, 11 kinds of pancakes and 10 variations on eggs Benedict — plus numerous other breakfast items. My advice: Go with a group that’s willing to share so you can taste more items. The website’s claim that the food “comes big and hearty” is no PR stunt; servings are large.

Bill’s original skillet serves up country-fried potatoes topped with two eggs, onions, ham, cheddar cheese, mushrooms, tomatoes and green peppers.

The “French Garden” omelet ($11.79) was satisfying, with goat cheese, spinach, sundried tomatoes, avocado, mushrooms and basil. Country potatoes, served on the side (or swap them for hash browns) were flavorful but served cold. The Hawaiian pancakes ($8.99) — buttermilk cakes with fresh bananas, macada-

mia nuts and coconut — were luscious, fluffy and not overly sweet. A short stack comes with two massive pancakes and sides of butter, whipped cream and maple syrup. My only complaint was that the syrup wasn’t real maple syrup and the whipped cream tasted like the store-bought stuff that comes in a can. The blueberry waffles ($9.99) aren’t quite like those that the

fictional Leslie Knope of TV’s “Parks and Recreation” obsesses over, but they’re a solid, sweet breakfast choice — light and fluffy, with a sprinkling of powdered sugar and four large dollops of whipped cream. Again, there’s no skimping when it comes to portions at Bill’s. The “skillet creations” are a favorite, and I highly recommend them to those who are either incredibly hungry or hungover — or both. The veggie skillet ($11.50) is a enormous bed of hash browns piled with scrambled egg whites, mushrooms, spinach, asparagus, tomato, avocado, onions, cheddar cheese, sour cream and chives. Don’t miss Bill’s “original skillet” of countryfried potatoes, onions, ham, cheddar cheese, mushrooms, tomatoes and green peppers topped with two eggs in any style ($11.50). The California eggs Benedict ($11.95, with bacon, avocado and tomato instead of the traditional Canadian bacon) came with perfectly poached eggs, but the flavorless hollandaise sauce left something to be desired. On my first visit, the service was overeager and not well-paced, but at subsequent meals, it was friendly and attentive without being overbearing. My coffee cup was always full. (Pro tip: If you prefer the drinks next-door at Philz Coffee, Bill’s will let you bring it in.)


Weekend

Above: The Jalisco scramble is made with eggs, tomatoes, black beans and pork carnitas topped with fresh salsa. Right: Mimosas are served in oversized bowls.

The space itself is somewhat sterile, with tables and some large booths. There’s outdoor seating on a small patio along Middlefield Road. While the food is homey, the physical space leaves something to be desired. For a string of local restaurants with a long history, I would hope for more of a neighborhood feel or a bit of charm. For thirsty customers, belly up to the bar for a mimosa ($7) served in chalice-like cups described on the menu as “bowls.” (They clock in at 17.5 ounces.) Anyone looking for a boozy breakfast can choose from bloody marys, coffee with Bailey’s, Mexican coffee (tequila, Kahlua, coffee and whipped cream), Irish coffee with Jameson whiskey, a chavela (Model Especial beer served with lime

Don Cheadle stars as Miles Davis in “Miles Ahead.”

Your ‘Miles’ may vary DON CHEADLE’S PASSION PROJECT REVIVES JAZZ LEGEND 000 (Century 16 and 20) Where to begin? And where to end? And what to do with all that middle? These are the questions that plague and invigorate any writer, and perhaps especially those who task themselves with the responsibility of telling the story of a real-life genius. Not everyone will agree with how actor-writer-director Don Cheadle’s passion-project examination of jazz legend Miles Davis in “Miles Ahead,” answers these key questions. But only a fool would say his take lacks creativity, heart, energy, and a gutsy willingness to take risks. As Davis says in the film, “Be wrong strong.” It’s a quirk of the marketplace that we’re getting, within weeks of each other, biopics of Hank Williams, Miles Davis, and Chet Baker, and even odder that Davis appears as a character in two out of the three films. But that’s a measure of the towering esteem in which Davis is held by fans and music historians alike. Cheadle does justice to Davis’ refined musicianship and creative genius while also exploring his hubristic fall from grace and the accompa-

Q MOVIEREVIEWS

THE JUNGLE BOOK 000

nying tortures. Cheadle and co-screenwriter Steven Baigelman begin in the late ‘70s, with Davis in semireclusion, pistol-wielding, suffering from a degenerative hip disorder, and blurred by drug use. The hip disorder and dubious medications compare to Hank Williams’ conditions in “I Saw the Light,” and it’s hard not to think of lifetimes of martyred artists when Davis’ producer (Michael Stuhlbarg) acidly concludes, “Man, what a waste. He’s probably more profitable dead than alive now.” It’s this Davis that music reporter Dave Braden (Ewan McGregor) chases for a story, but Braden gets more than he bargained for when he becomes embroiled in a scrum over a set of master tapes for Davis’ ostensible comeback recording (not quite as madcap as Paul McCartney’s “Give My Regards to Broad Street” but close). Flashbacks help to prove Miles’ point “I’m a Gemini — I’m two people anyway”: in the late-50s, we witness Davis’ brilliance in the studio and his volatile pas-

sion for — or insecure obsession with — first wife Frances Taylor (Emayatzy Corinealdi). With the Braden scenes, “Miles Ahead” recalls “The End of the Tour,” with an ordinary man observing and dissecting a possibly great one. But the more expansive “Miles Ahead” stretches its muscles in impressively yogic postures: in its evocative nonlinearity, its insights into Davis’ thought processes and philosophy, and Cheadle’s creative flourishes (using scattered Polaroids for a transition, for example). Cheadle’s performances as actor and director mark the film’s greatest achievements. On screen, a focused, magnetic Cheadle proves simpatico with Davis, and the understatedly moving, potently musical flightof-fancy finale demonstrates how the director Cheadle identifies with Davis’ remark “When you’re creating your own stuff, man, the sky ain’t even the limit.” Rated R for strong language throughout, drug use, some sexuality/nudity and brief violence. One hour, 40 minutes. — Peter Canavese

and 1967 animated film, Favreau retains jungle-boy Mowgli’s red-swaddling outfit, the characterizations, basic plot outline and three songs. Mowgli (Neel Sethi) loves his adoptive wolf parents, but pressure from murderous tiger Shere Khan (Idris Elba) sends the “man-cub” toward civilization. Mowgli’s journey includes guidance from black panther Bagheera (Ben Kingsley) and honey-hungry bear Baloo (Bill Murray), as well as encounters

with hypnotic snake Kaa (Scarlett Johansson) and the Gigantopithecus ape King Louie (Christopher Walken). Bill Murray predictably kills it, Kingsley and the rest hit all the right vocal notes, Sethi carries the ball admirably in the lead, and the CGI proves astonishing in selling the animal characters and their jungle home. Rated PG for some sequences of scary action and peril. One hour, 45 minutes. — P.C.

Like Linklater’s 1993 “Dazed and Confused,” the engagingly loose film serves as a nostalgic glorification of young idiocy. But the director reserves smarts and sweetness for Jake, especially in his flirtation with theater-and-dance major Beverly (Zoey Deutch). “Everybody Wants Some!!” may be a slender story, but it’s got milieu and character to spare.

Kuhnle JUDGE OF THE SUPERIOR COURT (MVV Apr. 8, 15, 22, 29, 2016) NOTICE OF INTENT TO CIRCULATE PETITION Notice is hereby given by the persons whose names appear hereon of their intention to circulate the petition within the City of Mountain View for the

Community Stabilization and Fair Rent Charter Amendment. Respectfully, /s/ Joan MacDonald 519 Emmons Drive Mountain View, CA 94043 /s/ Steve Chandler 660 Tyrella Avenue, Apt. 26 Mountain View, CA 94043 Title: A PROPOSED CHARTER AMENDMENT TO REGULATE RENTS, ESTABLISH JUST CAUSE EVICTION, AND CREATE A RENTAL HOUSING COMMITTEE IN THE CITY OF MOUNTAIN VIEW. Summary: The City of Mountain View does not currently regulate rents. This measure proposes to amend the City’s charter to establish a base rent and maximum allowable annual rent increases for covered rental units and prohibit landlords from terminating tenancies except for specified reasons. Single family homes, condominiums, companion units, duplexes, hotels, motels, hospitals, nonprofits, dormitories and governmental facilities would be exempt from the proposed amendment. Units which received a certificate of occupancy after February 1, 1995, and qualified affordable housing units would be exempt from rent regulation but would be subject to just cause eviction provisions. The proposed charter amendment would also establish a rental housing committee to implement these provisions. The maximum allowable annual rent increase would be 100% of the percentage increase in the Consumer Price Index, provided it is no less than 2% and no more than 5%. A landlord may bank rent increases, provided an increase does not exceed 10% in any 12-month period. A Landlord who fails to comply with the amendment’s provisions, maintain the rental unit or make repairs could not increase rents. The City Council would appoint a 5 member rental housing committee. Only two members could own or manage rental property or be a realtor or developer. The committee would set rents; establish rules and regulations for administration and enforcement; determine the allowable annual rent adjustment; appoint hearing officers to conduct rent adjustment hearings; adjudicate petitions for rent adjustments; establish a schedule of penalties; and could pursue civil remedies. Both landlords and tenants could petition the committee to adjust rent. For upward adjustments, a landlord must demonstrate adjustments are necessary to provide a fair and reasonable rate of return. The committee could not consider the cost of debt service, penalties for violations, cost of capital improvements not necessary to bring the property into compliance and income taxes. Rent could be adjusted downward when a landlord fails to maintain habitable units, decreases housing services or maintenance or charges unlawful rents. Landlords could only terminate a tenancy for: failure to pay rent; breach of lease; nuisance; criminal activity; failure to grant reasonable access; necessary repairs; owner move-in; withdrawal of the unit from the rental market; and demolition. Landlords must pay relocation assistance in certain circumstances. Tenants have the first right of return. Landlords could not retaliate against tenants for reporting violations, exercising tenant rights, or participating in tenant organizations. The proposed charter amendment provides the committee’s decisions could be challenged in court and a landlord could be liable in a civil action for damages, reasonable attorneys’ fees and costs as determined by the court. If the average annual vacancy rate of rental units covered by the charter amendment exceeds 5%, the committee could suspend the amendment. /s/ Jannie L. Quinn City Attorney, City of Mountain View April 13, 2016 (MVV Apr. 22, 2016)

As an international ďŹ nance manager for 10 yrs., then a business administration teacher in Senegal, Africa, I never imagined how life-changing it would be to start a real estate career here in the Bay Area, in 1985. Bringing together all my knowledge and expertise in the ďŹ elds of ďŹ nance, organization, construction, legal, psychology & marketing, I had then an opportunity to help people go through one of the scariest experiences of their lives in a safe and intelligent way, while educating them & explaining what was going on. I only hope that I have brought to the table as much as I have received in the process, which includes so many friends and rich relationships. I wish to express my deepest gratitude to all the wonderful people who used my services. A bientĂ´t!
