If you've been to the Santa Monica Library recently, you've experienced the landscape artistry that is Pamela Burton & Company.  Very impressive!!

I'm surprised to see so many reviewers are shocked at the "take a key" system.  They do this all the time in Los Angeles too.  I didn't have any issues with Bettina and found they were very pleasant to deal with.  They also dont charge a realtors fee, and I'll show myself apartments all day long if it gets me out of paying $3000 in addition to the first, last and security.  Seriously.

There are 66 reviews currently for One Shot, so I'm not going to read through every one of them.  However, I wanted to give a few points on why I think this place deserves 5 stars:

- They're selling Stumptown Coffee!!!!! It's awesome.
- Great coffee shop ambiance
- Outdoor seating, dog friendly
- Awesome food - unique menu items

I tried the breakfast sandwich with house-made sausage.  The girl who served my coffee recommended the brioche bun (which was great), but bagels are also available.  My boyfriend had the breakfast nachos with homemade tortilla chips.  Delish!!

Unique cafes like this are the reason why Northern Liberties is such a cool neighborhood.

We just moved to Northern Liberties, and Palm Tree Market is just down the street.  They don't sell cork screws but the guy at the front counter told us we could fashion one out of a penny.  He offered to make it for us, but we passed on his proposal.

They have a great selection for a small market, organics, freezer foods, full deli with Boars Head.  We tried the Chicken Salad Club and Turkey Club Sandwich.  These guys know how to make a GREAT sandwich.

An avid consumer of artisan coffee, I can also say that their coffee is good. This is a huge plus in an area where many of the stores and restaurants are cash only.  Palm Tree Market takes credit / debit cards with a $5 minimum.  

I've been here 4 times now - the store is always clean, bright and stocked.  The staff is always smiling.  If you're headed in here for a sandwich at lunchtime, you might be in for 10 minute wait.  It's worth it.

Update - 5/5/2011 1 photo
I'm glad to report that my computer has been working well since 2009 when I posted my last review of Z-Solutions so I haven't been in the market for computer repair.  

On Z-Solutions' Facebook page, I saw someone posted a review on having his Playstation 3 fixed.  I didn't even know they provided these services.  I wanted to have my brother's Xbox repaired before I tossed it up on craigslist for someone who thought they could get it to work.

I figured they'd probably keep the Xbox for a week or so, but they said their average turn time is 24 hours.  They had mine repaired by the time I got out of work that same day!!  Very impressive.

These guys are great and the prices are right.  Check them out if you're in need of these services.

    I am 110% happy with the service that Z-Solutions have been providing my company for the past few years. Many times when I have a computer issue, they'll just log into my system remotely from their office and fix it within minutes. Whenever an office visit is the solution, they're quick to arrive and always have me up and running in no time.  Also, they never charge travel fees like many of the other local IT companies do.

    A few years ago, we contracted our monthly computer maintenance to a different local IT company, but it was difficult to keep track of what exactly we were paying for.  We don't have that problem anymore since Z-Solutions provides us with a history of reports for each and everything they do.  We also know what type of maintenance and software has been loaded onto each computer at quick glance.  

    In addition to all of this, Z-Solutions recommended that we set up a VoIP system which has now saved us on our monthly communication costs.  They're really sharp like that and always come forth with new ideas and opportunities that make our processes more efficient.  Our budget loves it too.

    I have recommended Z-Solutions to other local businesses in Lansing, many of which have thanked me personally for passing the information on.  I would recommend Z-Solutions to any business in the mid-Michigan area who desires the attentiveness of a smaller company with the knowledge and expertise of a corporate IT management firm.  They have the best prices in town, and they do residential tech support too!

This is one of my favorite brunch spots in the Jersey City area.  Tucked away on one of the Hamilton Park side streets, they have a great menu, friendly service and delicious coffee.  Of course, they also have specials on mimosas and bloody marys.  They're always busy, but we've never had any problems being seated right away.  Street parking isn't too difficult to find within a block or two.  Highly recommended.

Loved the sushi rolls, and the dining room has much more to offer than it appears outside.  The prices are reasonable and the staff is very friendly.  Very good.

Sometimes when I'm traveling through PA on the I-80, sometimes it seems like forever between coffee stops. Panera is great for quality food when you don't have a lot of time to spend. Fresh baked bagels, breads, pastries, salads, sandwiches, and soups. Free wifi for those of us who work from the road. This particular location was easy off the highway - clean, friendly, highly recommended.
