Great staff, super friendly and helpful, but since it'sa yarn shop, i have to give it stars based on what they carry.  I was looking for a varigated yarn for a new project, and my options were limited.  They look like they offer fun classes and events, i just wish there was a bigger supply/variety of yarn.

impressively suprised by how much i liked this.  I've always heard about this show, but finally saw it for my birthday.  All the seasts are good and it was a non-forced interactive show.  Funny and entertaining and amazing whatpeople can do with knick knacks and their body.  loved it and would definitely go again. I understand why this show has been around so long.

Awesome. I took my mom to this when she was in town visiting.  Dancing, singning, acting, it's everything you think of when you think of a musical.  Quick set changes, nice backdrops, warm fuzzies from the story line.  I was really suprised and impressed by this show and would definitely go again.  If you just want to be entertained and leave signing and tapping your foot, well then, you can get that here.

was okay.  never had ethiopian food before and i thought it was okay.  my friends agreed, it wasn't fabulous but okay.  Apparently the 'bread' wasn't the way it normally is (was brown and not as fluffy), and the food items seemed more processed than fresh (not very chunky and resembled baby food).  overall i thought this place was average, good, and fillled an empty belly at 7pm on a wednesday.

I haven't bought anything in this store for years, but if you're looking for a cute going out dress, this place is the place to shop.  Compared to other place for cute dresses, prices are reasonable.  I like the petite sizes, although sometimes, some of the clothes are a little... hoochified.  Some classy stuff though, especially if you're short like me and need things that are just shorter than normal.

i always find something in here i think i need, or help to beautify my apartment.  Good sale items on candles, candle holders, dishes and rugs.  Purchased a beautiful mirror from Bali on sale.  it's my most cherished wall decoration in my studio apartment.

BONUS.  bathroom in the back - hard to find a public bathroom in this neighborhood.

best free view of the statue of liberty.  this is the only time i took it, and enjoyed taking many pictures of the lady liberty.  I recommend going during the summer because you can pick up a nice breeze on the water.  I'd imagine it'd be pretty cold in the winter...

i really liked it.  haven't had philipino food in a while.  Liked the pansit and the lumpia.  Chicken adobo was good  - but not the best.  Coffee was awesome and all deserts were good because they were comforting.  Kind of chessy decorations - but again, comforting.  This place gets four stars because I have a soft spot for my culture and this place made me think of my grandma and family... just because.

Vietnamese sandwhiches and vietnamese coffee.  Yum, this is the main thing I like to order here. Other items on menu are good, but sometimes it's not what I was expecting - had some shrimp dish was not very tasty but spicy.  Very cute and cozy inside, wooden floors and friendly staff.  Bar and tables for eating.

If you're willing to work, then this is the gym for you.  May seem out of the way for most (UES and very East) but well worth the results.  Super clean gym, super awesome trainers and friendly easy to work in work space.  I've been an aerobics instructor, spinning instructor and runner (two marathons) and this gym inspires something in me that can sometimes get lost  as we get older.  Love this place
