Reply to Best buffalo wings? by squid1980

Side question : is there any place that does like a sampler platter for a bundle of different wings? I've grown attached to my own methods for spicy wings at home but would gladly make the trip if I can order a big plate to try all kinds of potential new ideas to play with in my own kitchen after! Lol

I think it can really depend on what you're cooking. I definitely think wings come out better in the air fryer. But tenders (or anything battered for that matter) turn out best deep fried. I almost wish I hadn't gotten these things during the height of lockdowns because I can't even order wings or tenders/strips anywhere anymore. I'd be the most insufferable customer asking to take a look at the kitchens spice rack and critiquing their frying methods. Lmao

Could craft coffee become a thing like craft beer? Coffee that tastes like coffee, not that bitter swill from Starbucks. Offer sinful one of a kind dessert fare. You'd need morning business but run an evening shop Friday and Saturday nights and pull out all the stops. Offer your very best of everything on those nights with live entertainment. There was a dessert delivery place in Boston in the early 90's called Sweet Street that catered to coffee venues. They had a Chocolate Raspberry Black Forest cake that was just unbelievable and the best cheesecake I've ever had,

I think that’s where I’ll be going tonight!! Do you know if it’s still BYOB? I didn’t see anything on their website and I don’t want to feel like an idiot showing up with something 😂

Reply to Anyone know what's going on on Highland Street? by cafeteriatables

Just got an email from WPI Police: The Worcester Police Department is investigating a shooting that occurred at approximately 8:30AM this morning at the Honeyfarms on Highland Street. A suspect is in custody and there is no threat to the WPI community at this time. Please avoid the area as there is an ongoing investigation causing major traffic delays and detours.

Sorry but they don’t actually work. Many studies on it, I used to have the same belief as you, till I looked into the reality of it.

Fuck a red light camera. Cars and pedestrians shouldn’t ever interact.

> but Acoustic Java’s original location is literally right next to a university, so it would be reasonable to assume that they could be doing business into the evening there.

The university there has 2-3 coffee shops on campus, do I don't know how many go to acoustic java.

> Who do they cater to? Are they a legit coffee shop? Their hours are just weird, and I have no idea who goes there.

They are a legit third wave coffee shop. So far the best Cappucinno in the city I've had, but imo not as great for pour overs. I would just add also, I certaintly don't fit the 'punk' crowd but go there a lot, and the crowd generally looks loke one I've seen at any other 3rd wave coffee place across the country.

Also I just remembered, Bean Counter (which may get a high number of WPI students) I believe is open later in the day as well

Oh yeah, there were a bunch of super local bands, 7 Hills Psychos too. Some other bands from around Central Ma like Forty Days Rain, saw Fragment a ton too.

It was all ages, I was probably 14 or so when I first went. Actually had two locations on James St if I remember, way down the hallway in back, and later towards the front of the building with street access.

I actually first saw FFSH at the first Waaf local bazooka when it was at Shore Park near the Greendale Y.
