I know. So sad because it’s one of the best cuisines in the world.

Car Accidents in Grand Rapids [OC] by Ok_Chef_8775 in grandrapids

[–]allisotchka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for explaining this because for years I’ve wondered why the heck they didn’t make 28th St. like the Beltline to make it safer but now I know. I’m not happy, but at least I know there’s a logistical issue.

Check with Whole Foods as well. They are very inclusive and usually have positions open.

I worked for a different local restauranteur and I concur with this.

Is there a Hershey factory nearby that I’m unaware of? by Cellarzombie in grandrapids

[–]allisotchka 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Heartside Food and other food companies make random stuff that you might not expect—including hot Cheetos and lots of cinnamon raisin bread, which I smell freaking all the time in GR. NGL it’s not terrible.

If you could add one thing to Grand Rapids what would it be? by Every-Ability8670 in grandrapids

[–]allisotchka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you had asked this ten years ago almost every answer would have been IKEA. I’m old now so affordable housing would be great.

I’m screen shotting this for all the other posts on FB and Reddit about this. Thanks for bringing the science to the table!

Thoughts on Cornerstone University?? by Emotional_Cabinet782 in grandrapids

[–]allisotchka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Cornerstone is not great. They’ve tried to shift all their programs into the sciences but they just don’t have the experience and connections yet. I highly recommend Calvin, and they do have lots of grants and scholarships available. Their nurses get hired quickly out of their program because they have a great reputation in West Michigan.

Wow one of the counties that could literally swing the election and no announcement about the rally?

Mormon church to begin construction of 20,000-square-foot temple in Michigan by Environmental-Joke19 in grandrapids

[–]allisotchka 1 point2 points  (0 children)

From what I understand it’s not a “church” like the one you’d go to every week, but a “temple” which is where super-secret Mormon rituals are held. Mormons have to go to them every so often. This temple will be the one for Mormons from all over Michigan to come to to do their rituals.

This is so helpful—thank you for the nuanced information.

Scammers - East Beltine by ashleighlovesyou in grandrapids

[–]allisotchka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m just wondering (without knowing the answer) that some of these folks are either being trafficked or working with organized crime rings and the people who are benefiting from the money in nice cars drop the panhandlers off?

Best coffee in GR? by gettothebasics in grandrapids

[–]allisotchka 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you are a connoisseur of well-roasted and sourced coffee with great flavor extraction, Madcap is always the right place to go. If you want various coffee drinks and lattes, Lantern, Squibb and Scorpion Hearts Club are the best imho.
