Also, for the money, you can't beat 2nd street deli. Best deal in JC.


Definitely a good call on Second St Bakery - amazing stuffed rolls for like $2. But make sure you bring cash, because they don't accept anything else.

Also, my friend does a book exchange at her work. Where each person lists the books he/she has and a book wish list. Then people can go through and exchange books with one another.

There are little rules, like use bookmarks -not dog ears, and a couple others.

Maybe jclist could have a book exchange?

There are a number of good Australian wines for around $10.

Two shiraz that immediately come to mind are:

Woop Woop Shiraz - average $11

Wishing Tree Shiraz - average $11


I can't remember if any of the local wine stores sell it, I usually pick it up in the city.

I know Jersey Wines didn't have them the last time I was there, but they do have a large selection so I'm sure you could find a similar one.

Also, I bring peanut butter and jam to work. It is amazing for much you can save by not buying lunch and coffee everyday.

I wonder what type of clientele this place will attract - hopefully a laid back crowd. Praying we won't have Biff and Muffy or Vinnie and Gino puking all over one another.


I would take Biff and Muffy over Vinnie and Gino.

To each his own. Drink up.


I agree, I don't see any problems with a Biff and Muffy crowd. They are better than the loud obnoxious guidos.

Top choices:
Blue moon
Leffe Blonde
hoegaarden
Harp
(Strongbow - but thats cider)

Lee sims does have really good chocolate. I personally like the chocolate and nut collection or just their plain milk chocolate.

WHAT? MTA? For Christ Sake!. MTA? Do you know where you are? MTA is the Metropolitan Transportation Authority. It is a NYC agency. When you cross the river going west, you are in NJ. There is no MTA here. Here's a helpful tip. You see the NJ in front of NJTransit? That's a hint. It means New Jersey. Get it?


Dude, I said I had never ridden on a bus! Honestly all buses look the same. The path isn't njtransit I thought maybe njtransit covered just trains and the light rail. When you have lived in the manhattan for 5 years and then move to jersey...things just blend. The path is the only public transportation I've ever taken.

But thanks for the clarification.

And for another one....where is the bus number? or better yet, how many digits is it?


(please excuse lack of bus knowledge - I have never ridden on a bus)

Has anyone else noticed that lately the Jersey City public transportation buses have been driving crazier than usual?

Last week I was crossing on Grove st and had the "walk" signal when suddenly a bus flew around the corner and almost hit me.

Since last week I have seen more than a handful of close calls.

I think I missed something on this thread because I don't see any posts from "shill". From what I understand there is a new owner?
I have not been there for about a year and a half, but I always used to rave about their sweet potatoe fries. Do they still have them? I was thinking of going back sometime soon but if they don't have those fries and if they don't taste exactly the same and/or better, I will be very upset.
