Polls Close Tonight: Readers' Choice in El Cerrito, Kensington

When we relaunched our Readers' Choice feature in June, our readers' enthusiastic response provided a wide range of nominations for favorite places in El Cerrito and Kensington.

Now we're going to the main event – the voting.

We compiled the nominations into ballots, in a quick poll format, and we'd like to ask for your votes.

You can vote now by clicking on the links for the seven main categories below, or you can wait as we publish the polls for the different categories on our homepage in upcoming days. (Each main category has a varying number of sub-categories. In the "Favorite Food & Drink" category, for example, you will find separate polls for favorite sushi place, pizza, Chinese, etc.)

You can vote anytime between now and Aug. 17. Whichever place gets the most votes in each sub-category will be named the Readers' Choice winner.
