Mel’s Burger Bar is coming along quite nicely. And more Morningside dining news: Kuti’s, a new takeout store on 116th between Morningside and Manhattan Avenues, just got a good review from the Times. Bwog sampled the shrimp piri-piri and it is delicious, and just $7 for a plate of shrimp and two sides. Most dishes […]

Morningside Heights Is The Nexus Of Technology

By Bwog Staff on Aug 04, 2010 56 Comments

The MTA has no money, but is using its no-money to make these little robot machines called subway indicators all along the 1 line (that’s the “red line” to you, Class of 2014) this summer. Until they actually take away Unlimited Metrocards, we’re not complaining, because this is a fantastic device that allows you to […]

Morningside Heights Is A Den Of Filth

By Bwog Staff on Aug 03, 2010 67 Comments

The Health Department is, as of this summer, requiring that every restaurant in New York display the letter grades they most recently received for cleanliness. This is a nightmare for everyone; it’s rare that any restaurant will sneak away with no health violations. The grades will be assigned during the next year, when the Health […]

By Bwog Staff on Aug 02, 2010 23 Comments

It’s August, and the countdown has begun. School will, one day not so far from today, start again, and you will need new underwear for the new semester. More bad news: we, Columbia’s undergraduate population, the very fiber of our school, have failed again in taking steps to increase campus pride, foster any sense of conventional collegiate […]

A tipster just wrote that he saw 10 cops handcuff a man outside Lerner and take him away. Apparently there were a lot of cops and Public Safety folk around. Bwog was outside Lerner a few minutes later, but found nothing- no cop cars, no Lerner personnel. We’ll update you as soon as we get […]

In other news, Marla Maples (who is apparently a real person that used to be married to Donald Trump) was seen at a CC info session on Friday with her teenage daughter, Tiffany […]
