I could barely drop off my kid at school, without begging a traffic cop for 10 minutes of standing time. — pete on The Desperate Need for Film-Shoot Reform
Funny, I almost deleted that one before posting this, but I didn’t think anyone would read it that closely. I suppose the quotation marks imply a slang or idiomatic usage. — Erik Torkells on Quote-Unquote Funny
I agree about "curb". While the sign owner might not have meant it ironically, since no NYC dog owner has actually curbed their dog (i.e., made sure their dog's waste went into the gutter rather than on the sidewalk) since the Dinkins administration (or maybe even earlier), I'd say that the scare quotes are appropriate because the sign owner means, "Don't let your dog piss on my stoop!" — N on Quote-Unquote Funny
Thank you for another "amusing thread." — PeterD on Quote-Unquote Funny
All of these gave me a much-needed laugh this morning so thank you. But the "curb" your dog one seems appropriate for quotation marks to my brain. Is there a third usage for quotation marks perhaps? — Cobaye on Quote-Unquote Funny
It would be great to get a new Big Belly garbage can at the corner of Greenwich and Chambers. That specific can is the wasp nest it seems. — Bo F on Seen & Heard: Aggressive Bees
Maybe the bees have just spent too much time in New York. — Marcus on Seen & Heard: Aggressive Bees
Odd? That's the best thing I've heard -- will make me 100% want to go. European wheat is superior to American (and I'm just a white guy from America) — Mark Fortner on New Kid on the Block: Just Baked! Nowakowski
I noticed activity there today....workers going in and out, a few people inside with laptops, and so on. Anyone know more? — Marcus on An Italian Food Hall Is Opening at Broadway and Canal
Jack's at The Roxy! — Tribeca Mom on New Kid on the Block: Just Baked! Nowakowski
vornado bought into the complex with Stella. Same piece of garbage landlord — Native on In the News: Politicians Push Back on P.S. 150 Move
I wish them well, as I do any new business in our neighborhood. The bread was good. Still, I prefer eating local as much as possible. — MME on New Kid on the Block: Just Baked! Nowakowski
We had brunch at 1803 two weeks ago. Everyone sitting near their outdoor planter had to move because of the bees. They weren’t aggressive, but they were all over us and our food. I wondered why there were so many. — A. on Seen & Heard: Aggressive Bees
Looks promising...I wonder if they have any vegan options. Always on the lookouts for good vegan pastries! (My favorites are from PeaceFood on Union Square, but haven't found anything similar in TriBeCa area...) — Marcus on New Kid on the Block: Just Baked! Nowakowski
@MME - that should not deter you. It's quite common to have dough shipped as dealing with it is costly and takes a lot of space. Frozen dough is just as good as fresh and this will be more authentic. Greek from Greece (or whatever they are called) has the same model. — Michael T on New Kid on the Block: Just Baked! Nowakowski
This place is the real deal! Very happy to have quality bread in the neighborhood. — Joanna on New Kid on the Block: Just Baked! Nowakowski
It's being renovated into a park, with a cohesive design instead of a separate fenced-off green area and plaza. You can see renderings here. I don't know whether the work is still on schedule, but my understanding with these projects is that the difficult, time-consuming stuff is what happens underground; the planters, etc., won't take as long. — Erik Torkells on Seen & Heard: Greca’s New Menus
yikes is the word. this has been going on forever & every time it looks they are be done it gets ripped up again. what are plans once they are finished. does anyone know? — Elisabeth Biondi on Seen & Heard: Greca’s New Menus
Beautiful store - I wish them luck! — Anon on New Kid on the Block: Just Baked! Nowakowski
Re: kicking out ps.150 is Vornado Realty and when you look at their website they tout and value corporations...they dont want nor care about the community. — Tk on In the News: Politicians Push Back on P.S. 150 Move
While the bread is baked fresh at the store everyday, I was told the "dough is flown in from Europe." (I presume from Poland.) I found this very odd...and will deter me from going back. — MME on New Kid on the Block: Just Baked! Nowakowski
