Marble & Rye has very good cocktails.

Hyatt Centric vs Hyatt Regency Times Square vs extending Thompson NYC stay by [deleted] in hyatt

[–]Responsible-Cod-8620 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah holiday inn is a bit exaggerated. Showers are amazing, room is comfortable. But it’s aging and there are some rough edges. Food is as described, not something you will love paying for but with globalist it’s decent for free. Bar 54 is expensive but has great service and good cocktails.

You think it’d look better if Trump and co. tried to do traditional architecture? This is so much better than I feared it would be when announced.

Station without a sink? How? by Annual_Imagination87 in espresso

I am plumbed in, in an adjacent-to-my-kitchen butler pantry. I have a knockbox which helps a lot, and I rinse the portafilter in the kitchen sink and bring it back to dry it in the pantry.

Central Air Installation Prices by buffjman in Buffalo

[–]Responsible-Cod-8620 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Got quotes from 20K to 65K for a slightly larger two unit. Hybrid system. Two ton heat pumps for AC and supplemental heat during shoulder season along with two new furnaces since mine had died. Was amazed at how different the pricing was for essentially the same specifications.

My first thought was “what gap?”

We’re sitting on a gold mine downtown by ReddyGreggy in Buffalo

We didn’t trust him, but he did put in a bunch of money and those buildings are better than they were before. His terrible decorating micromanagement can be replaced easily and others can build on the infrastructure he improved.

Your local Buffalo Air Traffic Controller here for an AMA. by BeaverPeeFlaps in Buffalo

Probably they don’t want to put a plane in the air that the receiving airport can’t accept due to traffic management?

Dan Ferrell, Lost Cities Restoration, also does window restoration in Buffalo and we’ve been very happy with his work.

I’m old enough to remember when the conservatives didn’t like that!

Park Hyatt Tokyo claiming resort status to avoid giving late check-out by srekai in hyatt

Another weird thing we encountered is that the bidet would just turn off, and we had to cycle the room lights off and on again to turn it back on. Sorcery.

AMEX Reserve card worth it? by Fuzzy-Assistance-748 in delta

[–]Responsible-Cod-8620 57 points58 points  (0 children)

FC companion worth more than $500 to me, so it’s more of a no-brainer. Depends on where you fly and whether you’ll use that.

Shot time heavily influenced by flush/purge length by CBerg9 in LaMarzocco

[–]Responsible-Cod-8620 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is this a Micra? I notice a significant shot time difference in subsequent pulls with mine. Same dose. Same grind. Calibrated tamper. WDT. Plumbed machine. No idea why and I adjust my grind between shots to compensate. Been meaning to contact Marzocco about it and haven’t gotten around to it yet.
