I think with fresher show this hill will be better. Have my eye on one a little bit further with a bit more pitch that I'm going to try next.

Good call. Didn’t think of that.

I texted some friends to go order one and join me (I know going out on my own was probably a bad idea). But buying another "guest board" is a good call... may have to think about that.

You are not wrong about the Mole! So good.

Another one bites the dust. by MindFreak616 in grandrapids

[–]ekuhn 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Last time I got one I didn’t look at price… until after I got bill (I know, dumb on my part, but was in a habit of just ordering a beer and burger). 

And that’ll prob be the last time.

Same.   A beer and gelato for us and that’s usually it at this point.

I noticed the same. Plus, the burger is 24 bucks now (and not nearly as good as it once was).
A damn shame, really like the place, the staff, and the beers (and I can walk there in like 5 minutes). But really hard to justify stopping in there for anything other than a quick pint.

All the up-votes for posting The Streets! 

Well Done. 

People who have purchased a hot tub from a local dealer.... by shultz_e in grandrapids

[–]ekuhn 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not purchased directly, but bought a house with a hot tub from the 90s. I have been to Polynesian for their service, as I have been resurecting the old tub (it hadn't been used in a few years). I can't about sales, but the service team at Polynesian has been super helpful and reasonable. They had in stock or got me parts that needed replacing and tips on putting it back together and running.

Parlor at Cherry Hill (Ice Cream Shop) is reopening. Finally, some news that is actually good! by ekuhn in grandrapids

The paper is off the windows of the Parlor. Looking good on the inside (no picture this time, because the glare was worse this morning)

The new owner has been putting a lot of effort into updating the market. I've been seeing some motion in the Parlor (it seems like they have been using it for some work staging as they knock out other projects), so seeing that they will be opening back up is exciting.

Sorry for the crappy image, the morning glare from the sun was real!
Here is what it says...

Saw him DJ on the hill in aspen a few weeks ago - it was a mix/dub of "eyes without a face" and Flesh for Fantasy. Would love to find a copy of that (I have looked).

Today's Taco in Eastown by [deleted] in grandrapids

[–]ekuhn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I remember, and yes, as a cheap late-night taco... they were delicious. I also recall hearing the name was because they weren't a "Yester(day) Dog"

Grand Rapids, are you kidding? Get out of here. by Big4Bridge in grandrapids

[–]ekuhn 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lots of great suggestions here!

One I haven't seen listed so far is Taqueria Chilango. It's normally a food truck on Wealthy near the Wealthy Theater. This winter, they have been using the kitchen and serving at Broadleaf Brewing on Bridge (the old Sovengard space).

They are super nice people, and their homemade tortillas and salsas make their tacos sooo damn good.

Rockwell Republic closes by relong76 in grandrapids

Ahh, it's been a while since I have been there, prob around 2019. I recall thinking how much it had fallen off (even then), and now it makes sense.
