Ashkenazi has kept its doors open for dancing Berkeley feet since 1973, and it's probably a "must-visit" in Berkeley, whether or not you want to dance. But just try to not dance once you're in this funky space with as many Berkeley characters as funky space can handle. Their online calendar speaks to their eclectic and inclusive taste in music: African, Latin, Caribbean, Western, Jazz, Blues, Reggae, Flamenco - just about every kind of music you could think of, as well as some mixes you could never imagine. Always "kid-friendly," Ashkenenaz is a perfect place to find that almost undefinable "Bezerkeley" spirit.
