“fishy odor dissipates eventually (boston, ma)”
–  Gaslight Brasserie Du Coin   Category: French  Neighborhood: South End ★★ 2/14/2010 I wish I could rate Gaslight fairly, but that would require 2 ranking systems, one a scale of taste & atmosphere, and the other a scale of death.  For taste, they get 5 stars. For the death rating, they get 1...

★★★★ -- A dog park PT. 2 (BROOKLYN, NY)
I love animals and luckily my girlfriend has a dog. Sometimes we’ll take him here so he can run around. He’s a 7-pound yorkie, but he prefers the big dog area. The area for smaller dogs is usually pretty empty and not as poppin’ as the big area. I just like being able to see all the different dogs and like petting them. My girlfriend thinks I’m like a  little kid at the dog...

★★★ ---- A dog park PT. 1 (BROOKLYN, NY)
A great place to take your dog. But not always, only when the right dog owners are there.  I have a large 80 pound puppy who’s pretty submissive. We have her trained well, she comes when she’s called, and leaves it when we say so. She loves to run around and play when given the chance but is easily bullied by other dogs. There are a couple of dog owners here who are completely...

There’s so many color changes to my MTA map!  Why are you orange now?  Are you Dutch?  Why are the parks now colored light brown?  I thought we were going green Barack! Gahhh, I used to know this train inside and out going into Queens and back to Brooklyn again, but now - I feel like I don’t even know you!

★ -- A GREEN CLEANING SERVICE (Manhattan, NY)
Yikes!  I am so glad I am not alone in my very bad experience with this cleaning service.  I thought I’d be environmentally conscious by booking with these guys and I have to say boy, is there egg on my face!!  They showed up an hour late and after calling them, they apologize profusely but could not tell me when their person would show up.  When he finally did show up, he did a horrible job...

★★★★ -- A SALAD JOINT (BROOKLYN NY)
Dear chorizo taco salad, I have been thinking about you all week.  Mmmm, your leafy greens burning their way through my body fat like Drano slicing through a sludgy pipe.  You are going to free me from these deliciously porky chains of morbid obesity!  What’s that?  add some creamy luscious cheese?  I add the cheese, but you feel so naked, still.  So I dress you with the creamy chopotle...
