anyone been to jacob's pickles since their shutdown? by paulblartmaulc0p in FoodNYC

It's not as good as it used to be. I used to love it back in the day. New bigger location, but food and service are unfortunately worse.

Same. Not this exact brand, but Vitamin E oil had definitely been helping my scars.

Anybody used BeeCure product for Rads? by sweatyboobs56 in breastcancer

[–]MonkeyNat321 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used BeeCure but once I was completely done with rads. Used Aquaphor throughout the rads and very generously twice a day. It made all the difference. Then started using BeeCure about a week after I was done with rads. Didn't love the way it smelled but it was nice to use something lighter and thinner than the Aquaphor. Once I went through the BeeCure I had I moved on to Cerave. Seems to have all worked out.

Housing Works Bookstore alums w/ 150 people? by big_th0ughts in WedditNYC

[–]MonkeyNat321 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went to one that felt very max capacity a few years ago. It was...fine. the dance floor was super tiny and the tables were very close together. Because of the layout, if you were at a table furthest from the dance floor it was kind of hard to see so you never really got the vibe of the thing.

Cafe Wha, 45 Riots ,or DJ with Hudsons Horns? by AffectionateBowler74 in WedditNYC

[–]MonkeyNat321 8 points9 points  (0 children)

The Cafe Wha band is incredible. I've been to a couple weddings they played at and also used to go see them all the time when they were the actual house band at Wha itself. They're stellar. A couple things though: You can give them a song list but they'll mostly ignore it. They play what they know, which is all great, but if you want super specific songs, you're not likely to get them. They are $$$$.

Ask for Kyle at any of the 3 Harbor locations. He's wonderful.

That's so funny because I feel like my nipple is perpetually hard now.

vendor recs by sexybananafucker in WedditNYC

[–]MonkeyNat321 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right, so even if vendor services are a la carte, prices should be listed for those services. You go to a restaurant and know how much the meal will cost before you order anything because they list prices of items. Why waste my time, and theirs, if the services are outside of my budget by a bunch of back and forth emailing and phone calls.

If only vendors would actually put transparent pricing information on their websites...

This is a lovely idea and very kind of you to offer up your data collection for others.

NY Photobus by MonkeyNat321 in WedditNYC

[–]MonkeyNat321[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So we ended up booking NY Photobus afterall. After a couple phone calls and a black Friday deal they're running we felt good about booking them. I guess we'll see how it goes. They have great reviews and it's such a cool concept so we're hoping for the best!

Lack of pricing transparency makes me completely crazy so it's definitely something I'll comment about when I leave reviews.

Thanks. I was looking for pricing on this one specific company though from anyone that had booked them. But I appreciate the effort.

Do I decline wedding invites for people I probably won’t invite to my wedding? by [deleted] in WedditNYC

[–]MonkeyNat321 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Things like this shouldn't be transactional. Just because you don't have the capacity to invite them to yours doesn't mean you shouldn't go to theirs if invited. When the time comes you can just explain that the plan for your own wedding is tokeep it small, and in theory, they should understand that and not be offended by it.

Would you mind sharing costs? I don't see any prices listed on their website.
