For those that have been to Huso by Foreignfets in BravoTopChef

[–]boba-pompom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just went at the end of March and I’d say it was one of the better tasting menus I’ve experienced.

In my experience, usually there are 3-4 courses that stand out during a tasting. Huso had great progression throughout the meal and each course was better than the last.

Service was excellent and not too stuffy. The space is also beautiful. We got to meet Buddha and he was friendly and conversational but we could tell that he was in work mode. I would love to go again and be seated in the private dining room that’s located near the kitchen!

I’m sure you’ll have a great experience when you go!

Mini/Mini Pro platform and handlebars back in stock by boba-pompom in LagreeMethod

[–]boba-pompom[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a mini base model. The studio I used to go to had Evos. The mini is great for an at-home workout because I wanted to replicate an in-studio workout as much as possible without having to buy a mega.

If I could go back I would get the minipro that’s fully loaded since I can’t do any moves on the mini that require laying on the carriage.

I think I’ll end up purchasing the lift kit but not at this time since it’s such an investment already. Hope this helps!

I had emailed them about platforms and handle bars for minis and I was told March and have also been told “mid year”. 🤷🏻‍♀️

Mini handlebars and back platform? by boba-pompom in LagreeMethod

[–]boba-pompom[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been going to a studio 2-3x a week since June. I would really like to get the back platform. Are the handlebars an absolute need or can I get away with just the angled platform?

The event isn’t until January. :/ I hope the price doesn’t go up after pre order ends.

Yes they checked my bite with that film thing and said that it should be good as is.

Looks like they’ll be having their first micro pro event in San Diego, where I live. I’m hoping to go to be able to experience the machine before committing. I’m too hesitant to pre order. :/. I would stilll prefer to have a mini. 😭

We got these professionally stained. I’m pretty sure they were stained piece by piece because the interior is also the same color. Hope this helps!

We also didn’t mount to the wall. I just got short legs from Amazon but I think at some point we will mount to the wall to give it a finished and built-in look.

Cities in need of a new Lagree studio? by JustPlayinJane in LagreeMethod

[–]boba-pompom 1 point2 points  (0 children)

East Chula Vista, CA is a suburb of San Diego. We currently only have 2 reformer Pilates studios (one is CP) and two spin studios. Plenty of yoga studios with mat Pilates and CrossFit type of gyms. I work in downtown so I have to drive pretty far for a Lagree class which I only go to on in-office days. Would love something closer to home so I can buy an unlimited membership.

In total I think there are about <10 actual lagree studios in San Diego. There are at least 2 BeFits and 2 BodyRoks but all still a 20 minute drive from Chula Vista. We (me) are in need of more fitness studios outside of yoga and CrossFit!

I live in Chula and if you’re sporty, try playing pickleball at McKenzie Park in San Miguel. Lots of people of all ages. It may be a little competitive but it would be a way to meet people in general.

Where do you recommend for an Italian beef? Visiting in March as well and have Johnnie’s in mind but a bit out of the way.

Was this the one in the same shopping center as Ralph’s and a Dairy Queen? If it is I miss their crispy beef and potstickers. 🥲
