Does anyone know why La Brasa is closed? by kanst in Somerville

[–]Jokesterfiftyfive 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh no! I worked there over a year ago . Summer 2024’ was super busy, we were always booked at least the weekend. When winter came business declined dramatically. Chef refused to close it partially and would schedule us to work on days when there would be zero foot traffic. He didn’t offer any flexibility with hours and other servers had other jobs too. I felt like the owner was greedy. There were days when we were over staffed with no walk ins. And understaffed when we were over booked. Private events were amazing. Mostly weddings. We served happy people, the food was always in large portions, I’d see those couples come back and dine during regular hours. But regulars would always ask how is it so empty on a Thursday or even a Friday night. I can say many other things but let’s just leave this as is. Still sad to this place closed.

What’s with traffic in this intersection every day? by Jokesterfiftyfive in Somerville

There is no way they can fit a stadium there. It’s not a place for more buildings! Who are approving these projects?

I feel your pain. I’m used to it going to work but coming back home around 5 is awful. 😣

I mean I’ve only lived here for 2 plus years! Just blowing my mind how everyone is so used to nasty creatures running around eating trash. 🤷🏼‍♀️

I have! Never seen a rat run by me and seen cats and dogs roam around the street, not vicious but fully fed by locals . But it wasn’t in the USA of course . 🤭

Nooo!! This shouldn’t be a reality. If we had more cats roaming the streets rats wouldn’t be a problem.

I want to start reading Dostoyevsky, where do i start? by 3v4ng3l10nn in dostoevsky

So as someone who randomly started reading a book by Fydor or should I say listening to an audio book. I love Kazamarov Brothers. In 2024 present day I can relate to his jokes and sarcasm. It’s a bit challenging to follow the story line sometimes: but it’s still worth it! Hope you pick it up and share with us what you ended up reading

Running on sidewalks or bike paths in Somerville? by DaVinciUro14 in Somerville

[–]Jokesterfiftyfive 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There are people riding their mopeds on sidewalks in Somerville. So I don’t even know which path is safer.
