Curious. Is it me just getting old or what or are expenses so high with liquor? the other night, I met my wife and daughter at Sirena in LB (same as stella etc). House wine: $11 per glass the other night, I got home late and my daughter said hey dad, let's get out and go get a burger, lets try Ivan's since we haven't gone there... Great burger ($5) for me with a Sam Adams Oktoberfest, she had a steak sandwich and salad and no drink. Bill came and I glanced at it. $7.00 for a draft of Sam Adams? I had to ask if that was right. Told it was. Glad I only had one. The guy next to me said the reg beers are $3. I think that's what he said. I guess I have to check them out at happy hour. I figured Monday night football... cheap guys night out. I don't know. I was in NYC the past two days and don't think my bar tabs were that. A couple years ago, I got past the $4 per beer point, then $5, then $6 for premium. Paying $11 for a glass of $9 per bottle of wine... I got shafted a few weeks ago in a retirement village. It said a pint of beer. I know if I drank a pint, I'd be, well feeling it. The plastic cup was a 12oz cup. My wife said don't say anything. $5. But I did. The waitress told me that's our pint cup... I'm just putting this out there because I want to see all these places make it and not a place to come to for just special nights. At least the parking was free.

[AsburyPark] Re: A Carousel can work in Brooklyn
How exactly did the carousel ruin views of the skyline? The building is small in comparison to the size of the park. I think the carousel is wonderful. And it was donated to the newly renovated and expanded park and is housed in a building designed by a world renound architect. Sounds like a case of NIMBYs just complaining about anything possible. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, sehrenfeld sehrenfeld@... wrote: Don't disagree with the idea - just pointing out the mistake in comparison --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, arcman210 acme87rangers@ wrote: May be so, but in Asbury, they'd be placing a Carousel in a Carousel House... and vastly improving the appearance of that particular building. --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, sehrenfeld sehrenfeld@ wrote: The process of placing this private carousel in the middle of public space has been a shady debacle.

[AsburyPark] Re: A Carousel can work in Brooklyn
And the comparison I'm making is about the fact that a carousel can be a successful attraction in a city like Brooklyn (regardless of where exactly it was placed). --- In AsburyPark@yahoogroups.com, arcman210 acme87rangers@... wrote: How exactly did the carousel ruin views of the skyline?
