• Commented on Hertel Lounge - The perfect spot to catch an intimate show
  Welcome to the neighborhood Hertel Lounge! With Mohawk Place closed, any chance we'll see you become a new venue for some of those displaced bands? (especially since you have your music license :0 )...
• Commented on Vasilis Express brings recipe for success to Hertel
  Very excited! A nice addition to the 'hood! Also happy to see that the malware warnings are no longer popping up when I go to your site. Is that all cleared up?...
• Commented on Hertel Lounge
  I agree about the turn lane. It would be a mess on Hertel without it. I would like to see some marked crosswalks with "stop for pedestrian signs" at a couple of corners without lights, like Wellington. The lighting definitely...
• Commented on Hertel Lounge
  Agreed. Also, how about getting rid of the billboards? They're butt ugly and ruin the sightlines of some otherwise pretty nice looking buildings. Are they even legal?...
• Commented on Wrecking Buffalo: 375 Colvin Avenue
  I also live a couple of blocks from this building and if it's in the shape this article says it's in then it's time to take it down. The corner doesn't have to become a Tim Horton's (I hope to...
• Commented on Micros @ Marcy
  Ahh, I was looking for an Acropolis thread in my posts. I forgot about that one. I stand corrected yet I still say that after reading and seeing what he has to say, I'm not yet inclined to change my...
• Commented on Micros @ Marcy
  That wasn't me in the other thread but from the interviews I read with him during his expansion debacle he didn't exactly seem gracious, but you're right, I've never met him and shouldn't have called him a dick. Aside form...
• Commented on Micros @ Marcy
  Now this looks like an awesome beer fest! That's an amazing lineup! As for the Acropolis owner, there's an article on Buffalo.com about him looking to open a suburban site and stating that the city location is "up in the...
• Commented on Cheektowaga's New Super Walmart: Good News for Buffalo, Bad News for the Region
  I agree, WalMart sucks....
• Commented on Amy's Truck!
  Well, Amy's Place is one of those restaurants that you go to for the good, cheap food and friendly staff, not the decor, much like The Sterling on Hertel. If you go in to either with those expectations, IMHO, they...
• Commented on Amy's Truck!
  Can't wait! Good luck Amanda and company!!!!!!!!!!!...
• Commented on Edible Arrangements opens at Lafayette Square
  I've given and received a couple of arrangements from EA and have been very pleased. I found the quality of the produce to be fairly good to very good. I would also love to see local produce featued but I...
• Commented on Brunch and fall fare at Liberty Hound
  Well, that sucks about the Rare Vos. It's usually 7 bucks for 10 oz. I definitely would have complained. The only reason I compared to NYC is that in NYC it would be easily twice the price. I still dig...
• Commented on Brunch and fall fare at Liberty Hound
  I don't know that you can really compare the two. One's an upscale lounge (and an overrated one IMO), the other a waterside reatauant/bar....
• Commented on Brunch and fall fare at Liberty Hound
  I had a great time at the Liberty Hound. The Banana Pepper dip and fish tacos were both tasty as were the drafts (which are pints, not 8 oz.) and it was still cheap compared to eating out in most...
• Commented on Boutique owner bets on Hertel Avenue
  I walked by Uncorked Saturday night at dinnertime and they were closed while Hertel was otherwise hoppin'. Was this a fluke or are they closed up too?...
• Commented on Politics Are Brewing at 7-Eleven
  Screw 7-11. Where's the Gary Johnson cup?...
• Commented on Blue Monk Goes British on Tuesdays
  The Blue Monk got their permits first and the owner isn't an asshole. unlike "that other" business...
• Commented on Gala Waters jogging path being updated
  I dob't know about you but (except for Music is Art which was fantastic) I wouldn't be anywhere in Delaware Park at night....
• Commented on Gala Waters jogging path being updated
  Great News!...
• Commented on The Village Beer Merchant comes to Hertel
  I agree. I occasionally fill a growler but it's usually of the cheaper, session beer variety that I'll drink in one sitting or maybe something I'd like to have on draft instead of bottles (like a super-freshIPA). I'll usually fill...
• Commented on The Village Beer Merchant comes to Hertel
  As a North Park resident, beer geek and homebrewer, I couldn't be happier....
• Commented on Trader Joe's is Coming. No it's Not. Well, Maybe it is.
  I used to shop at Trader Joe's quite a bit when I lived on Long Island. The prices were pretty good (lower than Dash's, comparable to Weg's) and the quality was good also. I'd welcome them with open arms. Also,...
• Commented on It's called Més Que!
  Great place! Glad to have them in the 'hood!...
• Commented on Business districts must be allowed to grow organically
  I couldn't agree more. I live on North Park between Hertel and Tacoma and with the Tobacco Store/Globe on one side and Spot on the other, that intersection is a nightmare for pedestrians, drivers and bikers. There were two cars...
• Commented on New Buffalo hotel plays the hipster card
  Is it 75 bucks now? Jesus, what a ripoff!...
• Commented on Band of Horses and back...
  So, how was the show?? MMJ kicks ass....
• Commented on Infringement Leaves Its Mark
  I'm with Cpt. Picard. I own three properties in the city, one in an historic pres. district and every single change to my property has to be within the guidelines, and for good reason. Why is this property owner allowed...
• Commented on Don't Miss Buffalo BrewFest This Friday
  You know what, I did go a little too far there. My bad. Whoever goes, enjoy. Sleep deprivation is the hardest part of early parenting and on top of that, I'm a total beer geek....
• Commented on Don't Miss Buffalo BrewFest This Friday
  Um, no, I don't need therapy and I certainly don't need a smarmy jackass insinuating that I should drop my hard earned money on a sub-par event just because it benefits charity. If the sponsors of the event want to...
