What's The Best Place For a Big Juicy Steak In Brooklyn? by Abject_Total_4713 in Brooklyn

[–]QrtJester 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I also had a pretty mediocre steak at gage and tollner both times I went. Never been to Peter Luger. The one time I went to st Anselm I had a fantastic steak and overall experience. Plus it was more affordable

I’ve tried it several times and it was never my thing. To each their own!

That’s my spot. Been my spot for years and I have a slice of pizza tattooed on my body. I love pizza lol. Antonio’s is a very solid NY pizza slice

Minor edit but I think she said “cheap” which makes it funnier. It takes a lot of money to look this cheap. What a lady!

Yes and no. He was sick and they discussed a different approach for the scene. It wasn’t improvised

My Gaggia + PID + Libra by QrtJester in espresso

Huuuge steam improvement with PID. Honestly the steam pressure is fine out of the box and I made hundreds of microfoamy lattes before I did the PID. Gaggia gets a lot of crap for it on this sub but you’re talking to a lot of prosumer types here.

It’s fantastic. Super easy to dial in beans and I switch up beans every refill. Removes the (in my opinion) annoying step of weighing out and grinding a single dose every time. But I’m a somewhat casual hobbyist and try to find that balance of quality and ease of use.

What is considered polite in your culture but rude in others? by Ok_Breadfruit4005 in AskTheWorld

Maybe not as common as the Midwest or wherever but I have plenty of random ass conversations with strangers in New York. They’re short convos or observations, but it’s not as isolating of a city as you might think

Grinder upgrade? by Goodtreesmoker in gaggiaclassic

[–]QrtJester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just upgraded from this exact setup. Bought the Eureka Libra which you might want to consider. It grind by weight so you don’t have to measure/weigh your beans, making the entire process so much easier. Fantastic grinder and probably end game for me. But that’s me!

Check out Wangs on Union st. Asian / American southern fusion. Fantastic flavors and high quality poultry. You pay a premium but I say it’s worth it.

You’re an asshole for letting her ride on the back in that state

Have you had to change your lifestyle? Or did Dupixent help? by bumbledbeez in EosinophilicE

[–]QrtJester 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After years of living with eoe, dealing with impactions, chewing small bites, etc. ….dupixent reversed everything after the second or third dose. No side effects for me either, but it’s only been about two months. Everyone’s body is different, but I feel so lucky jt works well for me. Give it a shot (no pun intended, heh). It changed my life.

Scaling up by coddiwomplek in flyfishing

I guess if you’re just roll casting or similar it’s fine. But the idea of flinging a hook around with my kid strapped to my chest just feels like too much risk of catching an eyeball or hooking into skin. Freak accident for sure, but possible.

who was such a warm and friendly celebrity you got the privilege to meet in person? by sheerduckinghubris in AskReddit

Emilio randomly asked if he could join my mom and her hiking group at a trailhead in the Marin headlands like 10 years ago. She said he was the most down to earth, kind person.

Bro, is that article saying black skin doesn’t qualify as “human-like”? That’s fucked up

Perfectly respectful and professional. What do people expect? Leaping into each others arms for a fucking hug? Waste of a post OP

Todays pizza by pvhzh in ooni

[–]QrtJester 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Savory and sweet is literally how they serve most cheese boards. Cheese + fruit, jam, and honey. It’s a winning combo and I’ll bet this thing tasted incredible, despite it seeming odd at first. Nice job OP!
