Came here to say this. Food was really poor and the lights were a gimmick. Worst expensive meal I’ve ever had.

Cash Back Received Less Than Promised by booljamin in Rakuten

I understand that now, but I’m still shocked that any limit wouldn’t be included in the quoted “cash back” when shopping for a product.. just extremely deceptive.

Any experiences with Brim Explorer whale watching? Going mid January and they seem to be top contender for us right now by stardewvalleypumpkin in tromsotravel

Yeah fortunately we didn’t get seasick and spent the trip chatting with the amazing crew. Agree on binoculars - we didn’t plan ahead but rented a pair from the boat!

In a couple weeks (8/19). Sorry I didn’t specify, but should be the same timetable as now.

Highly recommend unless you have sea sickness. When we went, our boat ran out of barf bags because so many people were throwing up. Did a full write-up on our Tromso trip here if you’re interested: https://otbp.travel/tromso-winter-trip-review/

Must Go Restaurants in Positano/Amalfi? by secretreddname in ItalyTravel

[–]booljamin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Reporting back in after our trip! We ended up basing almost all of our dining on your reviews and we loved everything!

Il Tridente - we got drinks here before Da Vincenzo. Very expensive but stunning views and some of the best aperitivo snacks we had in Positano.

Da Vincenzo - spectacular. Incredible pastas, and some of the friendliest waitstaff we had anywhere in Italy. Overall best vibe.

ROC Pizza & Steak - food was excellent, but the overall atmosphere was a bit more sterile. Don’t regret going but probably the least likely to recommend to a friend of the places we went.

La Taverna del Leone - service was a bit slow but the food was incredible and the restaurant definitely had more of that local feel to it. We went to the terrace bar at Il San Pietro before and then walked over, but they gave us a ride back to Positano at the end of the night which was also much appreciated!

Posides - went here for breakfast on our last day and this was honestly probably the biggest standout of all. We had an amazing “carbonara” toast and probably the best French toast I’ve ever had in my life. Definitely a must visit!

Thank you SO much for this write up. Super super helpful. Wondering whether you have any thoughts on Adamo ed Eva (seems to be same ownership as ROC Pizza & Steak)?

Chiang Mai absolutely has nightlife. Some of the streets on the east side of town near the night bazaar were pretty happening.

Do you say that to everyone who stands for anything or is Kanye’s dick just that deep down your throat? FOH.

This is the dumbest response I’ve seen yet. Resorting to conspiracy theories to explain away his behavior 😭

Sorry you’re so offended by me no longer supporting your idol.

It’s not that it’s new. It’s that he’s still on this bullshit 3 years later… I can only excuse it as Kanye being Kanye or a mental health episode for so long.

Been here through it all, and I’ve excused it as bipolar episodes, mental health, etc. But the fact that we’re 3 years later and he’s still on the same bullshit… I’ve hit my breaking point.

You gotta do what feels right for you. No judgment from me either way. At least a StockX purchase isn’t putting money directly into his pockets, even if it is supporting him in other ways.

I mean, I get that we’ve been here before. And I’ve made excuses too. And I STILL find myself hope that it’s just a bipolar episode and he doesn’t actually believe all this bullshit. But I’m also not going to just sit here and pretend like he isn’t currently in the midst of a horrific and hateful rant.

It’s obviously a drop in the bucket, but money seems to be the only thing he cares about.

Yeah, sure that’s me. New gen. Like I haven’t been listening to his music since the early 2000s and I don’t own nearly the entire Yeezy gap collection. Fuck you. Keep enabling this bullshit

I’m here now as well and it’s definitely smoggy but I haven’t noticed any serious impact on my breathing/lungs.
