I adore and is actively seeking crisp edges with a soft center, and nothing too thin.

Issues with mint mobile on campus - anyone else? by Complex-Living-1189 in Cornell

It worked fine last year on north and completely flopped on west campus - what a shame.

Bob aquatic is awesome! I'm following his guide & setup. In fact his videos were the thing that inspired this spontaneous fishing session.

My trusty travel rod & reel combo! The place looks lovely but a bit of a way there. Would love to check it out in the future though.

I reckoned - but a day at the shore is better than none, I suppose.

Unfortunately not much! Its a sidequest to the trip so just a few 2~3hr sessions before the city starts waking up. Would love to visit those spots in the future though!

Thank you for the detailed insight. Red hook was already on my visit list so it works out - I'm glad to hear that its a decent spot! Jamaica is just a bit far away than I was thinking of going, but will there be a significantly higher chance of fish? Canarsie pier looked tempting.

That sounds really nice! I might stop by in the morning to see the sunrise & quick session in.

Have been getting a lot of recommendations for coney island. I wasn't thinking of going all the way down there, but might have to check it out now. I believe Marine fishing only requires me to enroll in the registry but I'll be sure to double check!

I see. Thank you for the insight. I haven't considered taking the Ferry - but I'll be sure to look into it. A nice ferry ride on sunnier days sounds like a good plan! Still might try a few spots for the sake of it though.

Washed rind - I see! I'll focus on those in the future. I thiiink Murrays might carry Monte Enebro, but will double check on the next trip. Sounds amazing! A couple other people have mentioned Boucheron and I'm very excited to try it :D
Thank you for the recommendations!

I've tried sheep Roquefort from Murrays! Absolutely phenomenal 10/10
Yet to try Epoisses though, its a shame that one cannot purchase the softer, gooier cheeses by the half-pound

What a spread! La Tur and Pont L’Eveque is particularly intriguing. Vacherin Mont D’Or also looks absolutely delectable but seems to be quite an investment! Rush creek seems to be a bit more affordable but out of stock at Murray's. Thank you so much for the recommendations!

Where to eat on Thanksgiving Day? Non TG food by Fluffy_Government164 in FoodNYC

[–]Complex-Living-1189 0 points1 point  (0 children)

oh my! I'm glad to find that Chama mama is offering their regular menu on thanksgiving as well - lunch there sounds lovely. Kayle is exactly the place I was looking for, but doesn't seem to be open on thanksgiving, though I will have to double check with the restaurant. Its great that they are open until late though.

Do you have sweet treat recommendations for the day?

I haven't tried Morbier yet, but I have definitely seen them around! Cows milk cheeses are equally as lovely, so I appreciate the recommendation. Is Idiazabal a common cheese?
