Re: Bingo, Burgers & Beer @The Brick

Aw, darn.  We've not seen you in quite a while.  What's up tonight?  We'll be going to the Brick for their monthly customer appreciation & Bingo night.  If you can make it, do!

Re: hyde park: believe the hype?

anecdotally, we got broken into about a month ago and our friend that lives near gillham park had his car broken into over the weekend... That's terrible news, sorry you had to deal with that.  There have been a few back door break ins in Pendleton Heights earlier this summer.  Did the crooks break...

:o  :( I'm really glad to hear you'll be staying in the neighborhood but, gee- get a house mate before giving up that gem of yours- the view from the roof alone is priceless!  If you really are going to sell, what will be your asking price?  Another one that just went on the market is at the corner ...

Re: Cosentino's Grocery downtown

Ask for a guy named mark lenz. I worked with him at hy-vee for a number of years. He's got great cust serv skills. So true!  Mark Lenz has the best customer service skills of any grocery store manager I've ever dealt with.  He doesn't "play store", he truly takes an interest in the needs ...

Re: northeast kc: drinks, eats, etc.

My favorite Mexican restaurant is in northeast- El Michoacano Taqueria.  It's on Independence Blvd., just before Benton, and across the street from Kentucky Fried Chicken.  If you sneezed while driving by you'd miss the place, it's that inconspicuous.  Their food is home-style, and their sauce has a...

Re: Pendleton Heights rocks!

Does anybody know if there are penalties assessed for s...

Re: Pendleton Heights rocks!

What's the story with the Mendolia building/neighborhood?  Seems like a decent price. It is a decent asking price.  I was talking w/ someone about the area a few weeks ago, and was pleased to hear good things about it.  She said she wishes someone would put a little cafe in there, and if it were an...

Re: Pendleton Heights rocks!

What is that intersection like?  I mean, traffic-wise, neighbor-wise?  Is it a space that someone could do a bakery or cafe in, or would that be frowned upon by the neighbors?  Just curious.

Your pics and anecdotes put a lump in my throat and brought a few tears to my eyes as well.  Sue me for being sentimental, but I love Spain that much.  It's kickass how cheap your trip was too!  I used to spend a lot of time in Mallorca and a little time here and there in Barcelona for work, so the ...
