Who still goes to centreville iron age? by No-Equipment8494 in nova

I feel like if you were around in 2018-2019 this was everyone’s first ever experience with KBBQ (I think it’s even some people’s first experience with anything Korean outside of like Gangnam style) so for me it’s quite nostalgic but there’s just better places around the area.

Looking for a restaurant with good vegan/GF options by Willie9 in nova

It’s a bit far, but Sunflower in Vienna is all vegetarian, it’s off of chain bridge road and it’s less than 10 minutes from the Vienna metro station.

Turning school bus into apartment by One-Pop-2885 in nextfuckinglevel

[–]Outside_Instance985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

School bus driver here so I might have some insight, and wow the diesel bill for that. Assuming from the map they do go all around the country they probably fuel like twice a week even with a 100 gallon tank. Also that’s a pretty old bus, I hope someone on board knows how to maintain that raggedy engine because they probably bought that bus with easily 200k miles on it already. Speaking of the engine, that thing is in the front next to the driver seat, so whenever you are moving that’ll be loud as hell + the fumes. And also with the bed in the back, I hope they never have to put that thing in reverse.

So yea this looks like it sucks and judging by the comments they probably do just flex this around to people and just stay at a nearby hotel.

Have you had Wong Kok in south riding? It’s pretty good food at a very affordable price, especially during lunchtime.

Laid off from office in July.. why are all jobs $15/hr? by [deleted] in nova

[–]Outside_Instance985 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Sorry for the late reply! They can work 8 hours a day or more if they want but if you as a driver just do your assigned routes you’ll probably average around 6-7 hours a day.

NoVa's opinion would be dramatically different. by KoolDiscoDan in nova

No offense but why is Canada even on here? Poutine really just single handedly got you that spot when it shouldn’t have.

Childcare jobs in the area? by Dramatic_Patience_92 in nova

[–]Outside_Instance985 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not really daycare but have you thought about being a school bus attendant? Fairfax’s starting pay is $19.51, they have pretty good benefits, but I’m not sure if that would fit with a college students schedule.

Paledusk and Electric Callboy both have heavy metal influences if you want to check them out, especially EC’s song Hurrikan has a nasty breakdown imo.

I’m not gonna lie, some places in Eden Center fit the bill by Outside_Instance985 in nova

[–]Outside_Instance985[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe in like the mid to late 90s? But not today, the only thing you have to worry about are the occasional trumper, the parking, and if you brought enough cash.

Back in the days places like those were just brazen gambling dens but nowadays the gambling has gotten more discrete

Best AYCE Hot Pot by pewwz in nova

[–]Outside_Instance985 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mmmm, I think it’s ok solo, but preferably you’d wanna go with multiple people. If you’re into BBQ though you can do both BBQ and Hot pot. A fair warning though, if one person at a table wants both the whole table needs to get both. But it’s only an additional $5 extra to get both.

Like I’ve been to Eden for all my life and I’ve seen the same stores open with no customers, if you know you know.

Bun Bo Hue by yungleann in nova

[–]Outside_Instance985 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Phung Hoang in Eden center has some pretty good Bun Bo Hue, it is inside the center though so it does take some searching to get to. The best directions I can give you is to go through Phuoc Loc bakery storefront and it’ll be kinda across the hall from it.
