 Not exactly in Oakland, but not too long a walk either, and you can
 take the Shadyside bus to the corner of Aiken and Center.  Then
 Alexander's Pasta Express, I think the name is, on Penn Avenue,
 several blocks down from the Post Office and on the same side of
 the street.  I have enjoyed the restaurant a lot.

 And it is very good.  Grab a Yuengling Porter to enjoy with your pasta.
 Try the sicilian rustic sauce, if they have it that day.

 Yup, for an unremarkable plate of iceberg lettuce followed
 by gooey, schluppy pasta, served with style becoming,
 there's no better place in town.

 I've had better pasta at Eat-n-Park.
