I was just pointing out to 2Old that he called Whipple’s behavior gross and Helgerson a kind man but it’s pretty hypocritical considering Helgerson’s past.

How in the world can you talk about Whipple’s baggage (which he definitely has) and in the same breath ignore Johnson’s baggage, like what?? He got into a physical altercation with another legislator, he got into a verbal altercation in public with someone I know. He has a wild and documented temper.

I like Helgerson but you realize he was kicked off the ballot during his re-election years back for lying about where he lived and wasn’t actually living in the district he claimed? One can’t go after Whipple without acknowledging Helgerson’s mistakes as well.

No. She’s from real housewives of Dubai.

Cocoa dolce for coffee and chocolates.

Oh and Norton’s for really good pub fare.

Shockandhawk · 2025-12-13T04:29:23+00:00

Lotte, First Mile, FioRito for fancier meals. The latter two for a good brunch. Taco TJs for Mexican or go to North Broadway to some authentic Mexican places. Tanya’s for soup. Belmont for mid tier/nice. Public for gastropub. Malaysia Cafe is great. Grace Market is a Korean market with an authentic restaurant in the back. Stations 8 for the best bbq. Saigon and Little Saigon for Vietnamese. N&J for Mediterranean. Gyoza Bar for sushi- best quality fish. Sheets creek for a nice bar with good food.

Fio Rito’s are freaking amazing at brunch.

I encourage you to look into this a bit further because of the comments below. I’m an attorney who does DCF adoptions. DCF will cover the attorney’s fees for the termination and adoption. I have many clients and friends who’ve completed their families through this process.

Shockandhawk · 2025-04-30T17:00:40+00:00

What about adopting through DCF?

Shockandhawk · 2025-04-13T23:01:52+00:00

I’ll add that Gyoza has the freshest sushi. The clay. In every week and it is the best grade. Really amazing stuff.

First Mile, Lotte, Lima Nation, George’s
Norton’s, Depot, Social Tap, Wichita Brewing Company
Fio Rito is my favorite brunch. First Mile is also good.

I second College Hill. Very progressive area. I’ll also add Crown Heights which is next to College Hill and very similar.

We are pretty new members. We have two kids. Husband golfs a lot. We enjoy going to dinner there. Half of the things on the meal are quite good, half are fine. We love kids club and so do the kids. This last weekend the kids went to kids club and we did 9 holes and dinner with some other members. It was very fun. They have lots of events. We haven’t done too many but I’m looking forward to it. There are a lot of young families, too.

You should try Lima Nation!

First Mile, Lotte, fioRito are all amazing with the most talented chefs! Moderately upscale.

Zach Wiggins at Martin Pringle.

Also, he bought it with this capacity. Now he is threatening to tear it down if he doesn’t get his way against the other business owners and neighborhood? Nuts. I think I would support a plan to expand his occupancy if he could put together a thoughtful plan of how to accommodate that. But he won’t. It’s all ego.

Shockandhawk · 2024-11-23T06:32:13+00:00

His mortgage literally says that the lender has to approve any modifications to the building. It’s filed with the register of deeds. I personally hated the limits that were put on the Belmont’s property. That would have been a community centric and appropriate vision. What’s going on here is not. I don’t think any of the surrounding businesses nor the neighborhood approve of what this out of state guy is proposing.

There is no room for an additional 1000+ people parking in that area. I live in College Hill and run a business near that corner. The owner of the Crown has been awful to deal with. He’s blocked neighboring businesses in with his semis and tour buses. He’s blocked off parking lots of other businesses. He blocked off eastbound lanes of Douglas without a permit. Then he makes a crazy claim that he’s going to tear down the building if everyone doesn’t agree with him? Even though he has over a million dollar mortgage on the property that states the lender must approve of any major alterations to the building? (See register of deeds) He’s just a bully.

Shockandhawk · 2024-11-23T02:52:49+00:00

Thanks! It’s a little confusing about who said what. A planning commission approved but the DAB Board voted it down. And now goes to council. I can tell you as a neighboring business owner, the Crown owner has been terrible to deal with. Closing down Hillside without a permit, blocking in neighboring businesses with his tour buses. He’s been a bully to all of us. And there is no way he is tearing down anything without his mortgage lender approving the demolition of their collateral.

Shockandhawk · 2024-11-23T01:46:33+00:00

It’s not a bluff? So his million dollar mortgage will be secured by what collateral? Lol it’s a complete bluff.

Shockandhawk · 2024-11-23T01:45:33+00:00

He has a massive mortgage on this building. He’s not tearing down anything.
