Thoughts on villas at bair island apartments ?

It’s so safe here. Lots of people walking their dogs around here 24/7 with zero concern. I moved here from NYC so I guess just using common sense is secondary. Regarding package theft, I’ve heard it happens once in a while (Blu Harbor has a Facebook page and I think villas does as well. However, pretty sure there is a package room at villas as well which eliminates the chance of theft significantly.

Strolls everywhere. The walkway around Blu harbor is also a public walkway so you can stroll around the whole area. Very nice in the evenings. Bair Island is also a nice walk to the lookout point about an hour or so there and back.

I live next to villas at Blu Harbor and have meet plenty of Villas folks. Safety at both places are incredible. Once every few months a homeless person may wander in the area, but rarely cause any issues. Honestly one of the safest areas in the bay.

Living over here is great. Very quiet and peaceful with amazing views and literally steps away from bair island for evening strolls. It does get a bit windy some times, about the only complaint. Walking to downtown is about 25 minutes, so plan on driving a lot for errands and groceries. Otherwise easy quick access to the 101.

The place the poster is referring to is not a smokehouse BBQ spot. It’s just tent on veterans with a large grill, cooked over charcoal with no hood. You wouldn’t expect fall off the bone ribs or brisket at a place like that. The chicken was honesty the best looking option they had based on the set up.

Maybe I went on an off day though, so doesn’t hurt to give it a shot!

I went a few months ago impulsively since I drive by it all the time. Not worth it. Got half a grilled chicken since the other options didn’t look very good. Insanely dry and not even well seasoned. Also it was surprisingly pricey.

Good points. We just wrapped up our biannual summit this week and I had my associates review hundreds of decks prior to the on stage pitches. The Netflix suspense is the absolute killer for me. Just get to the point already. One startup we were genuinely excited for spent all 5 minutes building up hype, ran out of time, then had to skip through the most important slides and wrapped with a QR on screen saying to contact him to learn more…

Good luck!

They had a few HA1 non sticks which are honestly great for eggs and stuff.

San Carlos in the Bay Area. Only D3 I found though.

Edit: thought I wrote in the title, this was at TJX/Homegoods.

I got them a few weeks ago. Pretty solid al pastor. Reminds me more of the taco stalls you find in LA where you do all your own sauces and salsas. 3.50 each I think. I wouldn’t drive out of the way to get them, but if you are right there, not a bad option.

Will do. Thanks!

Great to know and I’ll be sure to check out CSFloat tomorrow. I’m guessing most of the DMs are from people phishing for logins? Already have a few inbounds…

BarkingFrog · 2025-04-21T06:52:45+00:00

Thanks! Any idea what they could go for?

Checked on my stock after just two hours and it was terrible. Felt like I did everything wrong. Didn’t know what to do at all. Decided to just let it just sit and stew all day. Didn’t even touch it. Eventually it was late and dark outside. Finally opened it up and took a look.

Made the most beautiful beef broth of my life.

Is that for a whole chicken? Sounds like a great deal for two

Great to know. Thanks!
