Boringside Heights: Forrealz This Time
So many things have happened this week that it’s almost too much for us to process. There are changes everywhere, new things abound—all this excitement might be dangerous for Bwog’s heart health! Though we may have had a little fun with yesterday’s posts, we promise that today’s edition of Boringside Heights is totally legit. Feast your eyes on the newness of it all!
-
- Friends, this is an outrage! Nussbaum has raised its Pizza Days prices by 50%!! NOT OK.
-
- Milano is seriously revamping its look. Its selection of cookies is now encased in fancy, mahogany shelving! These shelves are so new that you can still smell the varnish!
-
- Though it’s tough to tell from the photo, M&M cookies at Oren’s have gone up from 50 to 75 cents a piece. What is this world coming to?!
-
- Joe gets new chairs! Hopefully they’ll be adding some new tables to match—Bwog is tired of awkwardly joining ones that are already occupied. We just want to eat our Robicelli cupcakes in peace, dammit!
-
- Book Culture now has a seating area on its second floor—yet another excuse to hang out at Book Culture and flirt with the cute boys who work there.
-
- The seating area features WiFi!
-
- Just this small segment has been replaced on the crosswalk on 116th and Broadway. Boringside Heights is always looking out for your safety!
-
- International Wines and Spirits has changed up its plastic bags—we’ll call these “Country Style.”
In Picture-less News:
- The fruit carts are back! We know we say this a lot, but come on, guys—spring is totally here!!
- Joe now has a coffee cart manned by some of your fellow Columbians! They’re only serving pre-brewed coffee as of now, but we’re sure they’ll learn the ways of latte art soon
- A quart of milk at Westside is now $1.39, up 20 cents from the original price. We are not pleased.
- Saving the best for last: H&H Bagels may (or may not) be served at Uni(brow) “Café”!!! In some serious investigative reporting yesterday, Bwog called Uni “Café” regarding the rumored presence of these famous bagels at their establishment. After hemming and hawing about the irregularity of bagel shipments, a Uni “Café” employee confirmed that the store will sell “H&H Bagels sometimes, but not always.”
