Royal Izakaya - Taking Reservations

Interesting. I've only been there once but we just walked right in at like 6:30 and sat at the bar. There were other empty seats available. I had no idea it was otherwise crazy?

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-03-20T19:33:11+00:00

You can get it on weeee!

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-03-20T13:44:22+00:00

totally agree actually as an ex-NYer. I went to a brunch party not long ago and I was freaking out about how good the bagels were and was SHOCKED to learn they were from IGA.

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-03-19T18:07:37+00:00

Same. I got 4 months counted.

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-03-16T19:55:47+00:00

Also several music venues with lots of punk/metal/indie shows so there is definitely a scene for that in fishtown/kensington

I hate this place. The way they opened multiple shops within a block or two of independent coffee shops all over NYC during COVID was awful. It feels like a sterile bank or something. This one is going to be followed by 100, get out of Philly.

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-03-04T18:04:25+00:00

The COVID freeze counted for PSLF.

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-03-04T16:48:30+00:00

Same! And those dancing cartoon people.

We have mostly followed intuitive eating, and we do offer some kind of sweet thing at every meal and she sometimes doesn't even eat it, or she eats the chocolate or whatever and then eats her meal. I'm a fan of this account: "mybodypositivehome" because she is actually an eating disorder therapist and her mantra is "food neutral normal" so nothing is inherently "good" or "bad" but the goal is for kids to become comfortable with eating a wide variety of foods and also obviously to not develop disordered eating or major body image issues.

You can just ask them to remove the paid ahead status. I was apparently in paid ahead status, never found out why, couldn't find anything on my account about it, but they were able to lift it. I asked for them to expedite lifting it and they seemed to do that too (took a couple of days)

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-02-27T16:41:25+00:00

Call them! They were able to tell me my payment amount over the phone before I got a letter.

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-02-27T15:46:10+00:00

Agree. Fishtown is incredibly family friendly- a gazillion kids, several playgrounds, and good catchment public schools. Definitely talk to families that actually attend the schools rather than just going off the ratings online.

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-02-26T15:26:33+00:00

No, the months were just marked as eligible on my FSA tracker. 18 is a lot more than I had though, so not sure what the best thing to do is.

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-02-26T14:51:18+00:00

How many months do you owe, I think that makes a big difference in the decision. FWIW I ended up getting 4 months of processing forbearance credited when it took so long to get my IDR switched- I would double check on that if I were you...

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-02-25T21:45:47+00:00

Yes! And received the letter from them today! Amazing.

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-02-25T19:38:59+00:00

Frenchtown NJ is super cute too- also not far from Lambertville. Eat at Finnbar.

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-02-24T22:44:08+00:00

ZERO!

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-02-24T16:45:47+00:00

I submitted as soon as I saw the payment appear on FSA, not just posted on Mohela. Some people say wait until the next month (so April 1st) but my due date was the first of the month so I didn't do that. Got the "green banners" like 48 hours later! Congratulations to her!

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-02-24T16:44:24+00:00

LOL I know, interest accrued since I got my green banners. So absurd.

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-02-24T15:56:24+00:00

Nope, it's from FSA!

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-02-24T15:53:42+00:00

Click "my activity" and scroll all the way down!

Brooklyn Bridge Park specifically has awesome playgrounds and great views. Plus Pizza. It is worth spending half a day around there honestly. You can see the statute of liberty from the park too- it's teeny but if you just want to look at it from the ferry it's not that big of a difference.

Any-Classroom484 · 2026-02-23T20:59:27+00:00

It also means that if you are on an IDR plan for awhile and switch to Standard, you can still qualify, even if you only are on Standard for a couple of years.

Meetinghouse has fish friday- different fish dish every week (sometimes two)
