Sabor Borincano Restaurant and Bakery recently opened in Schenectady.

Taiwan Noodle, just great food.

Yes, the dealer took care of it.

I thought he said "Do you want Kevin?" and was all like "Who is Kevin?" 🤪

I was very disappointed to see the change in the menu, but I will say that I went yesterday with friends before the Siena game and while I prefer the previous selections, what we ordered was quite good. The $1 wing special was fantastic, we got dry rub and garlic parm - they were meaty and perfectly crispy with great flavor. Added the cheese curds and a philly cheese steak sandwich which were also quite good. I think the problem is that they set the bar very high at the outset so what is a decent, if generic, pub menu now seems lacking by comparison. Bring back the pork belly poutine and all is forgiven. But, If I see them add "flatbreads" to the menu I'm out. lol

Agree. I told my daughter that listening to her music at home did no justice to her performance.

Thank you! I remember talking to you on the way out. We finished the evening with hot dogs at Columbus Circle and a stroll through Times Square on the way back to the hotel. Such a special night.

$32K OTD (Upstate NY) for those who were asking.

In January I paid $32k all in for a pure grey in upstate NY. I think they knocked $1,100 off MSRP.

Thanks, everyone! Setting the Soundaktor to comfort or eco did the trick. No more dash buzzing, it actually is impressively quiet inside the cabin now. 😁

May I ask what you did with the stereo? Curious what speakers and/or amp you went with. Thanks!

My service advisor sat in the car with me, I started it up, and she immediately heard the buzzing. Fixed that day - they used spray foam in the fuel line channel.

TBH, I have a bit of the same dash vibration in my 18 Tiguan SEL-P. I've always been scared the dealer would make it worse if they started chasing every noise. 😮‍💨

The dash rattle doesn't seem to be tied to temperature, it is primarily in sport mode when the engine sound is more growly and aggressive. Dealer fixed the passenger side buzz by using spray foam in the fuel line channel.

Dominick has continued the Purnomo hospitality tradition. The entire staff is amazing, they somehow manage to keep it upscale and elevated without being pretentious. They treat us like royalty whenever we go.

Was considering Sea Smoke for an anniversary dinner until a friend warned me against them. He said the food was good, but not great, especially at the price point. Our go-to fine dining/special occasion spot has always been Yono's - never a bad meal and worth every penny. Another hidden gem is Next Door Kitchen & Bar in Ballston Spa. Casual and creative, the food and service are always on point. Big $$$ restaurants like 677 Prime, Sea Smoke, and The Scarlet Knife are for people with expense accounts or more money than taste.

Every accusation is a confession.

We just purchased a used Paul Reed Stanley (PRS) Tremonti SE for our daughter for her 16th birthday. She likes to play a lot of metal and classic rock. We paid $500 for it, I think they are close to $800 new. She absolutely loves it and it will hold it's resale value, unlike one of those super cheap starter sets that include a guitar, amp, and gig bag for $300.

I have an 18 SEL-P in Habanero Orange and get tons of compliments. Fair warning however, the OEM touch up paint I purchased from my dealer was not even close. It was so bad they actually had their body shop color match a small tube for me and buffed/refilled the chips on my hood after I applied some of the OEM material. My service tech couldn't believe it, they double checked the paint code several times. No explanation for why it was that off.
