heheh, ok maybe... but someone would need to explain to me how i put a photo on here. :?

oh duh, thanks.

maybe i'll post the photo of me and morgan freeman inside the space? he was helping me hang sheetrock i swear.

nevermind that! come to my business because morgan freeman was here!

(and i'm kidding about what i'm inferring here. at least... i would very much like to doubt that enzo's was aware the guy was a phoney.)

I stuck my head through that hole in the plywood the other day. It's looking good!! Glad to hear work is going on because it always looks like no one is there.

I brought it up during a first date the other night when the guy asked what good local places I have to hang out at around my house..... don't let me down! Relationships are hanging on this place.

It's getting closer! The wood panels are down, and you can see what the front will look like. I just walked by and they had one of the windows open. I could see the exposed brick and the framework for the bar.

yay!

yeah... liquor license's are contingent on final approval of build out from the DOB. so the license sort of sits on a desk waiting for work to be complete and the final inspection.

this whole process is akin to bureaucratic goings-on described in The Trial by Kafka.

awesome. I have a huge jar of change set aside exclusively for spending at YOGI.

Any time frame on the Grand Opening?[/quote

I didn't ask for a date, since it was obvious they've been asked this to death. He knows we're all eager :-)

yep, the place is really shaping up nicely, though i've only seen it from the outside and haven't scored a super-special tour like Flexi

all i hope for is that it's ready for warm weather

And please stock some yummy dry red wine! I can't wait!!!

BTW, love love love the windows - very old-style and very stylish. Can't even imagine how we were ok with that ugly neon-lit video store!

Ha, good point YankeeFan! I surely hope CurleyGreg knows a thing or two about ambiance. Candle light, after all, is not only romantic, but also cuts down those electricity bills .

so you think every store on 9th ave with a neon light is ugly?

Some are better than others. I work in a neon-lit office all day, so I naturally prefer a more yellow type of light on my time off. My 2 favorite places when it comes to lighting are Beer Table on 7th and Song on 5th.

Oh, wait, no,we couldn't.

I'm shaking my fist so hard.

I hope YOGI isn't the place you'd go to watch the game. That's part of what attracts the crowd at Rhythm + Booze, and one of the reasons I am excited for an alternative.
