So in our quest to find a breakfast place that opens at 7 on the weekend, we had forgotten about Christo's (Coles near HP) and they are open at 7 (on Sat)! So if anyone else is feeling like an egg sandwich before 8 am and lives near HP, this is a good option.

There's a long thread on the Talde post for Carrino...should probably be integrated here.

You should consider signing up for the JC Moms Meetup board:

It's 25 bucks but the organization schedules a bunch of events throughout the year - something going on every day - and it's a good way to meet other parents.

The message board has been really valuable for topics like school/daycare.

You guys are good! We will have to try it!

Thanks to everyone who provided some suggestions, but yeah, I was aware of most of these (except the deli on 5th and Erie, but that also seems to be an 8 AMer). I was really just wanting a sanity check that I wasn't missing something that opened earlier. Wonder Bagels is not far, just not fun in the winter on a Sat morning :)

I'm sure if he is officially diagnosed with measles, anyone that he was suspected of being in contact with will be notified, if not already. They already told building residents.

Assuming this does happen and in my lifetime, will this improve the overall flooding situation? I'm not familiar with how the system works and while it's great we're helping with the green issue of dumping into the ocean/river, I would also hope this would help drainage for flooding.

Ah, shit, sorry... Had just come from Manhattan and got alerts about the Brooklyn fire so it was top of mind.

Thread a huge 6-alarm fire in Williamsburg in a warehouse.

Random question... We live on 5th and Monmouth. Does anyone know of a place near us that opens at 7 am on the weekends and makes breakfast? During the winter, it's just tough to make it over to Wonder Bagel first thing Sat.

I checked Christos and Monmouth St deli, but both open at 8.

Thanks!

Many receipt machines have that as part of their output. I think because of the restaurants in the space, they're all on the same system. I've seen that in many places; I do not believe they were expecting a tip.

I really wanted to love this place, but I have to admit, I was disappointed. I'm excited to try the restaurants, but as far as the market goes, I was underwhelmed with the amount of options. It's pretty limited. I do hope this is only part of their final inventory. If not, I see myself going there maybe once-month, if that. Only so much olive oil, fig spread and candles I need.

The only real benefit and gap this fills for me/my family is the quality meat. But again, I'm not eating steak every week.

It's stunning how no one catches on to the seafood need... I would be there every other night if they had that...

I'm hoping everyone had renter's insurance; I feel so badly for the 1000+ people who are homeless/lost everything.

Basic being listed in the same thread as Dames, Mod Cup, Warehouse, Brewshot, Word and now Nine Bar Cafe for quality of coffee is incongruous to me. It doesn't even compare in my opinion.

I've been to Nine Bar twice and happy with the service, ambiance and excellent coffee (got a large latte). I probably will still default to Dames because it's closer, but often when I run errands along Newark, I'm looking for a high-caliber coffee and now I have the place.

Just keep your hands out of your pants :)

I tried Lee Sims for some holiday chocolates... OMG... we got salted caramels, raspberry jellies and coconut clusters... amazing. And fantastic quality for the price.

Whenever I would consider trying them, I was waylaid by Choc o Pain, which is just as healthy... :)

Stupid question, is this only a restaurant or also a fish market? We need fish desperately downtown.

Seems a few of you are bringing your kids? Would you say it's kid-friendly? We have a 3-year old who's great in restaurants, especially if we aim for 6 PM or so.

I'm not a perfect parent, but I'm sorry, if this area was indeed cordoned off, the mom is definitely to blame, even considering that "accidents" and "shit" happens.

As a parent, if you see a place that people are clearly not supposed to go, you firmly tell the kid to stop once...twice...if they don't listen, then you pick them up and (fill-in-blank with appropriate disciplinary action) so next time they listen upon your first request/command.

If the girl was able to not only approach the barricade and slip through but also approach and fall into the hole, the mom is at fault for either not paying attention or not being a strong disciplinarian.

I think you have to use a broker for flood. We use Muller in Hoboken and the provider is Selective. It's about $3000 a year for us.

The article also says it bounced off of metal 10 feet from the ground first before hitting him. What are the odds...

We get pizza there every few weeks, mostly picking up. We've found that the owner and guys who've been there a while are great, but they hire some employees who suck. One guy is late 20s with annoying hair and he's always just standing around looking useless when they are busy. He took our order a few nights ago and completely fucked it up. We got it home and instead of the white pie with arugula and prosciutto, it was a red pie with broccoli and arugula. WTF! I called and they had a new pie ready in 10 min. I think they tend to give crappy employees way too many chances.

Damn, something went wrong. I raced home to try and see it and saw the live footage. I thought, "hmm that looks weird" when I saw a huge fire at the launch pad. Like an idiot I was standing on our sidewalk still eagerly waiting. Not sure what happened yet.

I walked down Newark yesterday. All buildings are open, and it looks like they are continuing work on Hard Grove.

I answered my own question:

Is this the place on the left side (as you go away from Newark) with black trim that's been in the works for a while now? Please post if you know anything more about the type of bakery it's going to be. Looking forward to trying it!
