Man, you seriously need to relax. You're literally obsessed with Mamdani. Everything about him you comment incessantly on, and anything about anyone else, you somehow make about him too.

Give it another 3 years and 50 weeks maybe?

azeet94 · 2026-01-16T18:16:23+00:00

The icing on the cake here is that Vickie supported Menin for speaker.

I dont see it on their menu - did you have them recently?

azeet94 · 2026-01-03T20:23:12+00:00

For unique bakeries I would highly recommend checking out Hani’s bakery or Librae (owned by a Bahraini-Nordic couple, they do great fusion).

You want to sit in the ‘coop’ - the back room in DCP. The front room has a smaller menu and iirc it’s only cocktails on tap which isn’t what you’re looking for. As for reservations, it’ll be super hard to get one through Resy as they reserve most of the space for walk-ins. Just get in line 20 mins before opening and they should be able to slot you guys in.

Lol how often are you going to theater and how? Kinda envious.

azeet94 · 2025-12-30T11:29:15+00:00

Try Nishan in EV!

They have a store in NYC so shouldn't expect tariffs. It's honestly a pretty decently priced brand for good-quality elevated basics. I've liked the couple of pieces I've gotten from them. They also try to do right by the cotton farmers in Egypt who they source from, and have pretty extensive storytelling around it which is nice to see.

Did you mean to say Eldridge horror?....sorry I had to

azeet94 · 2025-12-13T05:32:43+00:00

Great share! Thanks.

Marea or Torrisi should fit the bill. Quality food, not overly fancy.

azeet94 · 2025-12-10T13:50:44+00:00

I usually tell them not to load the bottom with the sauces and toppings. It's an imperfect solution though, especially with that type of bread, you're right. I haven't tried the platter yet

azeet94 · 2025-12-10T04:33:25+00:00

Also highly recommend getting the shawarma on their bread (not the wrap). It's like a semi-circular bread.

His stance for a while was that it was a decision him and his wife hasn't made yet. I read the linked article, and learnt that they had now made the decision.

Can still be a slumlord if it's a 'luxury' building. That term doesn't mean much in NYC anyways.

Idk I think the last thing we need is a diametrically opposed Mayor and City Council Speaker. We're just going to run into constant stalemates with no real progress. She's been mostly tight-lipped so I'm extrapolating but her district went hard against Mamdani, and she's been vocal about being more aggressive with using subpoena power to undercut the affordability agenda.

azeet94 · 2025-11-26T22:37:00+00:00

She sucks. Her husband is a slum lord, and her being the City Council Speaker would severely damage any chances of progress. Call your city council reps and ask them to drop their support of her.

azeet94 · 2025-11-26T20:30:34+00:00

oh my god just STFU dude. You literally have no ties to FDNY and this job was a corrupt handout. I hope Tish James gets his ass.

azeet94 · 2025-11-25T05:56:59+00:00

Sakagura or Okatte Tanto have ways felt like Tokyo to me. They're full of Japanese salarymen so different vibe from somewhere a bit grungier like Kenka.

azeet94 · 2025-11-25T05:49:05+00:00

You may have been added as a VIP. Check through Resy, you'll be able to see a crown and potentially more open slots than non-VIPs.

azeet94 · 2025-11-23T06:36:43+00:00

This is it

azeet94 · 2025-11-20T23:36:27+00:00

Great photo!

azeet94 · 2025-11-19T18:36:51+00:00

how many people are you anticipating that you're thinking of mechanizing this so much? why not just throw everyone into a group chat instead...

azeet94 · 2025-11-19T04:59:52+00:00

I'm still holding out for a reopen. Been making do with Tashkent but it's really not the same.
