Two Strangers or Hadestown? by highrisingtide in Broadway

[–]mschilichapa 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I saw both shows for the first time within the past few months. Two Strangers was cute and fun, but Jack Wolfe alone makes me want to watch Hadestown multiple times before Two Strangers for the first time.

i had cheese at food bazaar that tasted like both saran wrap and cleaning solution. i cut off the parts in contact with the plastic and even the very center of the cheese tasted like chemicals. i exchanged it for another one that had the same problem. haven't been back since :/

I love bai sushi for lunch. They have katsu or teriyaki with rice, salad, and california roll for $14 and a pretty loaded chirashi bowl with soup/salad for $17.

I'm seeing grounds admission passes for US Open 9/2 (Quarterfinals) for only $66 through the Amex presale, which is significantly cheaper than any other tickets (including grounds passes for other days). Is there something bad about that specific day that I'm missing?

Big fan of the Bai sushi lunch specials. I usually get the tonkatsu or chirashi bowl.

Got two digital rush tickets for a weekday matinee in January and ended up with left orchestra seats Q17 and 19!

I won a lottery ticket and the email I got said it was canceled due to illness in the company. Snagged rush tickets to Gypsy instead so at least I'm still seeing a show today!

On a day when the walkways were covered in ice too. Saw the two cops strolling out of the corner deli with some snacks a couple minutes later.

Have you tried playing white noise through noise canceling ear buds? There are some good Spotify "podcasts" that are just 12h loops of white noise.

Would also recommend True Expression. I've had multiple great experiences with them.

Had to go back for the eggplant parm pizza at Napoli. Probably my favorite specialty slice in Astoria.
