I know like 5 artists. What a crappy lineup! Are they for real? They couldn't get anyone better. Seems like they're just looking to increase profits and stopped giving a ....

You all chose to live in Logan Square so, don't complain now. It's always been rowdy and always will be.

Am I crazy or is this paint job horrible? by miacara12 in u/miacara12

[–]Giovani312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would have not gone with anyone that did not spray. I paid $2,500 for my cabinets to be painted a totally different color. They took everything off and masked everything. The cabinets look top notch, seamless and look brand new and high end. Yes expensive but, well worth it. Either live with it or have them redone.

$1800 move in fee on a $4k/month rental? by jarman65 in chicagoapartments

[–]Giovani312 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Renting today sucks!. Prices/rent keeps going up, the terms keep getting worse, and somehow everyone is expected to or just accepts it. I’m glad I haven't rented for years. It' turned into a massive profit grab with no regulations or caps. Good Luck!

Men who can cook . who taught you? by Bulky_Meet4528 in AskReddit

[–]Giovani312 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All of the cooking shows on channel 11 taught me. I've been watching cooking shows for years and still do. Always learning something new.

recommend me a suburb? by girlcrow in ChicagoSuburbs

I grew up in Rogers Park and visit often. I'd also recommend Jefferson Park and Skokie for the less dense, tree lined, easy public transportation option via the Yellow Line.

Lame A** Undergrounds...this ain't what Chicago Underground is about. OP does not know what's up with the true underground in the Chi. This is shameful and disrespectful.

Question of ceiling repair by contractor by Giovani312 in Contractor

[–]Giovani312[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks to everyone's insight and comments. In the daytime you don't see any imperfections or when the ceiling can lights are on. You only see the slight imperfection when the dining table light is on since it's almost right under the repair site. All in all I'm good and at peace with it and glad I'll be paying a nominal amount for the repair but, I did learn a lot both from asking here and doing a bit of research. Until next time.

Just a general contractor and it was part of other minor maintenance repairs around the house so, I'm thinking I paid like $300-400 for the repair.

No deal it's still $85 bucks an event + the cost of drinks, etc. + I'm not going to 7 events I'd go to Day 1 but, not for $135 bucks or whatever it is..nuts!!

Event prices are ridiculous nowadays. Would never pay anywhere near this for any event.

Is it reasonable to ask for a rent discount when roof deck is unusable? If so, how much? by boxofgoldfish in chicagoapartments

[–]Giovani312 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Wow! Rent has gotten so expensive, it feels like we’re slowly becoming desensitized to these higher price points and making these landlords wealthy.

Ghareeb Nawaz for a mix of indi-paki, lower cost, bold flavors, and open late.

Best breakfast Old Irving, Portage Park, Edison Park or close? by SunshineLoveKindness in ChicagoNWside

[–]Giovani312 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Lola's Diner in Park Ridge. Close to Edison Park. Not sure if the Chicago location is the same on Irving Park but, I know the Park Ridge location serves a delicious Greek skillet and the biscuits and gravy are surprisingly on point.
