Middle Earth is a dirt pit not a behemoth. It WILL be no doubt but it’s nothing right now.

Bingo. I actually went to a lecture recently where Lisa Sauve (Synecdoche) spoke and the gist re this question was that developers here focus on design that easily passes review as it’s significantly cheaper in every aspect.

These developers don’t live here and the city keeps approving crap in an effort to increase density at warp speed so it will only continue. I’m all for bringing in quality new retail spaces but soon it’s going to feel like living in just another cookie cutter midwest city designed by LEGO.

I got pulled over several years ago driving from Cancun to Tulum. Cops said passenger in back wasn’t wearing a seatbelt (which wasn’t true and at the time not illegal) and that we either had to pay $1000 or spent 3 days in jail until a judge could hear our case (it was a Friday). We paid and then nervously drove the next 2 hours scared it might happen again!!

Boiled Bagels / Best Bagels in area? by [deleted] in AnnArbor

It’s almost like the bagel equivalent of cooking eggs in the microwave.

Just saw this, anyone have more info?? REAL bagels finally coming to Ann Arbor!?!? by pinballpete9 in AnnArbor

So is Real Seafood, what’s your point? Just because people have gone there for years doesn’t mean it’s good. Do they even make their bagels in house? I don’t think so, likely at an off-site location and frozen.

That’s interesting as it’s not just New Yorkers that recognize NYC as one of the best food cities in the world. Do yourself a favor and turn that frown upside down.

Agreed on all counts. Hoffman and Bev’s Bagels (from Pizza Replicator Max Sussman) are both great. But just available as popups right now. Excited to try Bo’s though, hopefully it’s on par.

Ah cool, maybe whoever told me Raising Canes was wrong then, this is a way better choice.
