Restaurants & Food / Re: Trader Joe's coming to LIC?

« Last post by Liz on Today at 06:48:41 AM »

Yes the FH one is too hard to get to.  Not convinced the LIC one will be easier to get to than the Manhattan ones since I go to those on my way home from work but will be nice to have one available when needed.

I like the samosas and dosas often take them to parties.  I usually buy Swad but I've liked everything I've found at Patel and I like going there and trying new items.  There is a little more spice than Traders products.

They are suggesting Medicare for all not Medicaid for all. Lol Nobody wants the Medicaid for all.

This is why I back AOC and medicaid for all.  it wasn't  until republican sleazebag Richard Nixon made the health industry a for profit that is causing all the problems.

Neighborhood Chat / Re: Spectrum sucks

« Last post by buzz on Yesterday at 06:23:51 PM »

I used to have verizon but they used the old phone lines and told me to up grade to a faster speed.  This did not resolve the issue and I went to Spectrum.  If you live in an apartment building paid off by cable back in the 90's then you won't get FIOS- which btw is way overpriced.  The whole communications business is  a ripoff.   It's like a legalized monopoly.

I ate there for the first time today.  It was delicious.  Had the lunch special which included a chicken wrap with salad,  big mexican soup, and a drink. Will definitely return.  I hope business picks up for them

  We sometimes have a reddish tint to the bath water in our apt. Does anyone know if this is connected to lead? I am going to order this test but it sounds like most of the concern is with drinking water.
