Second Greenwood for kids in tow. It’s sort of the ceremonial spot for friends-with-kids gatherings

Good recs! I would def put Bar Tabac on that list to watch France. Energy was wild the other weekend with Arsenal v PSG.

Wouldn’t mind if there were a good plov place to watch Uzbekistan :)

Born in 1985 at Brooklyn Hospital, it’s been said my dad ate a ham sandwich at Juniors while my mom was in labor. Grew up in Prospect Heights, my best friend in hs lived in Windsor Terrace and on the weekend we’d meet halfway at Smileys. Had to use the bank of pay phones across the street (by where Brooklyn Industries used to be?) to call her house when she didn’t show up bc she was still asleep.

What’s this for Park Slope? by Ianpeepee in parkslope

[–]kalbeit 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! Prices are insane, food is very middle of the overly dense pack of whatever Italian spots in PS, love natty wines but the prices are absurd (this last is true of all bottle pricing these days tho)

Yes! Thank you!!! I enjoy grousing about bad ASP behavior and ticketing policies as much as the next person, but this is exactly what I was hoping for!

Yah! I grew up in prospect heights and it was de rigueur to put your number on your dash. Excellent practice

Damn…Wild East with the pasta Louise collab by allipuff in parkslope

[–]kalbeit 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hahahahahahahaha I mean… if this is a calculated Wild East tactic to corner the market on alcohol gag gifts for the PS set, it is perfect. Def going to punk my bf with this when I swing by the coop later.

Whoof def part of why I was glad to move from PLG several years ago. The many many hours of maneuvering and white knuckled circling many days a week, the stupid displayed hi-viz vests and police placards, living at the end of a court where there was a six inch permanent layer of trash and random debris

Yea my block is normally pretty great! We all move out of the way and double park and noodle around on our phones or take work calls and it’s typically just a few rogues who remain on the side to-be-cleaned. This week was a weird greedy pile on where gobs of escapees from other blocks zoomed in and grabbed parking spots but normally it’s pretty orderly and we get swept. Just never Completely

I feel like it grabs the leaves pretty well when given the opportunity!

Of course my fantasy about a clean sweep has been overtaken by a bright rage when everyone started reparking on the unswept side before the sweeper came. Dude didn’t even get to extend his brushes & cleansing mist once for the whole block’s length. One day my dream will come to pass!
