the storefront next to the wine and liquor store on 7th looks close to opening. they've been doing a lot of construction and just put up an awning structure, but no sign of what it will be yet...

anyone have any idea?

    hi...it looked a bit like a bar/restaurant to me when I peeked in at it's window yesterday (fingers optimistically crossed that it's not another realtor or atm)

    A shopkeeper on the block told me it would be a frozen yogurt place. Not sure which one.

    Damn damn damn. Who needs it? We've already got Tasty Delite and Haggen Daas right there. Oh, but wait, IT'S YOGURT. Wow. Big Deal.

    Here's what we really need:

    1) A GOOD Indian restaurant

    2) Reasonably-priced dry cleaner that's open on Sundays and until 8 PM on week nights

    3) A shoe repair place with outstanding customer service

    4) A health food store where you can buy lettuce without frogs, unlike the Food Coop, and pasta without maggots, unlike Back to the Land.

    Are you serious about back to land? don't care about the food co-op.

    those are not maggots dear raw, you need to educate yourself before you state something like that about a business

    could cause potential problems again for this site

    I dunno... maggots are pretty identifiable. I certainly know what they look like.

    well they aren't open on sunday, but the cleaner (gr's i believe) on berkeley betwween 7th and 8th...much closer to 7th is open till 8pm on weeknights.

    so nice, fast, reasonable prices and they do a good job with sewing as well.

    i've been nothing but impressed.

    open sunday would be nice, but they are open saturdays and the 8pm REALLY helps.

    if you heard frozen yogurt, i wonder if it could be pinkberry?

    personally i much prefer oko down on 5th, but i doubt park slope needs another of those.

    i'd be into a bar.

    i'm praying it's not a tasti delight. i don't care for that place.

    I'd really doubt that it's going to be a Tasti-D, given that there's one a block away on Union! :)

    Are you serious about back to land? don't care about the food co-op. I am. The sad thing is, is I love Back to the Land, and went back there and repeated the scenario. Back to the Land, Back to the Worms, Back to "AaaaahhhhhHHWWWOOOORRMMMS!!!"

    OK, Smarty pants, let's have your theory! Bring it on!

    Sorry I don't have the time to study de larves and confrim the type of species that I accidentally purchased. To my layman's eye, the wiggling worms looked like hydrotaea aenescens.

    Like the Food Coop's frog finder, I also have newspapers' phone numbers, so if I really wanted to cause "potential problems," I could. One of my friends joked that I should photograph the horror and throw it up on this site. Please! I have no interest. All I want out of life is NOT TO EAT WORMS.
