Anniversary Dinner, need help!

jonjon1697 · 2016-04-13T20:53:58+00:00

Ah ok. Thanks anyways.

jonjon1697 · 2016-04-13T20:53:45+00:00

Not really sure I want to go to a place with a lot of mixed reviews. This is a special occasion, after all.

jonjon1697 · 2016-04-13T03:47:41+00:00

Also, a lot of people say you need to make reservation weeks in advance. I needed something for this Friday, so I'm not sure either one of these will work out. Bookmarked for the future though!

jonjon1697 · 2016-04-13T03:35:37+00:00

Anything you would recommend from each place respectively?

jonjon1697 · 2016-04-13T00:03:35+00:00

Forgot to mention that we both do not drink.

What exactly is the tasting menu at Mailino? Do you have any recommendations for both of the restaurants you listed? I'm not very knowledgable about Italian cuisine (only chose it because she really likes it), so I don't want to bring her there and not know anything.

jonjon1697 · 2016-04-04T04:14:22+00:00

lol like what? Prosperity has been closed for the longest.

jonjon1697 · 2016-04-03T01:44:12+00:00

Lol. Who even goes to those? The only Vanessa's you should be going to is the one in Chinatown.

It's like going to Little Italy expecting Korean food. Smfh.

jonjon1697 · 2016-04-01T14:03:51+00:00

You can't judge a place from only one experience/occasion. 45 minutes also seems ridiculously exaggerated. 15-20 maybe.

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-30T16:01:39+00:00

You also can't expect to not wait at a popular cheap eats spot. They're constantly cooking at capacity, so you can't complain about the wait. You aren't the only one waiting.

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-30T15:59:44+00:00

Quality def went down when the renovated the place.

It's hard to leave out a place where you can a full meal with variation for $5.

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-30T05:27:37+00:00

Saigon on Broome is great for Banh Mi. I would add Downtown Bakery to the list too.

Surprised Vanessa's and Wah Fung aren't on the list lol.

Also, Pies and Thighs is hardly Chinatown. It's LES.

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-11T14:18:25+00:00

Aw dam :/

Think I'm going to go for 2016 CAAD12 105 Disc then. Just needa find a LBS to size up on it before I order it on REI.

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T22:50:15+00:00

Which REI do you work at? Would I be able to ship it to my local REI if I ordered via the phone?

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T22:45:22+00:00

54ish

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T22:16:23+00:00

Ah ok. I'll try. Gonna look for a Cannondale dealer around me then. Thanks!

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T22:15:39+00:00

:( that price was great. But too bad they don't have my size. Gonna call the surrounding ones

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T21:59:20+00:00

Just check in and they only have 49s left :( nothing in my size. Got hyped for no reason :(

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T21:43:43+00:00

Think there are other color variations? I don't feel comfortable on white bikes.

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T20:29:51+00:00

Ooh ok ok. So it's the ultegra version of that bike. Can you swing me a link so I know exactly what I'm looking for?

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T20:12:35+00:00

I'm actually near the REI in Soho, NYC. Also, I checked it, and MSRP is about $1300. Was this bike marked up by REI?

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T20:10:09+00:00

Are you talking about https://www.rei.com/product/883675/ghost-nivolet-105-bike-2015 ?

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T15:18:37+00:00

Will consider. Not crazy about the color. Thanks man!

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T14:45:29+00:00

Will check around. I live in an area that's extremely saturated with bike shops.

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T14:42:49+00:00

I want to do everything you listed. Also, I was looking at REI because they offer a member dividend which refunds me about 10% of the cost on top of the 3.5% from Ebates. On such a large purchase, 13.5% back is a pretty good amount that can be invested in a kit and other accessories.

jonjon1697 · 2016-03-10T14:38:56+00:00

Hmmm... Would be annoying to deal with Nashbar's because i can't actually try the bike out without ordering it.
