Shrub-based beverages had a strong moment for a while, but I rarely see them on cafe menus anymore. I’m talking about those refreshing combos of shrub (vinegar/fruit syrup) mixed into sparkling water or soda. Or any variation of this. Dinosaur coffee used to have a daily/rotating shrub, but I didn’t see it on the menu last time I went. I love them as an alternative to coffee/matcha/tea on a hot summer day. Where are we going for shrubs these days? Is it a dead trend?

Seems a little insane? For a place that charges $160 for a single Dover sole? You gotta get petty and also have this fee? Seems to detract from the elegance.

When restaurants tack on extraneous fees, I’ve come to just deduct it from the total gratuity. I plan to leave the restaurant with 20% added to my bill, before tax. If businesses need to charge for health insurance or kitchen wages or convenience or credit card transactions or any other thing, I consider it part of the 20% that I naturally anticipate.

Go ahead, dispute me in the comments. Let’s debate this.

I realize much of this is likely improved but I’m looking for a sheet music transcription of this arrangement of Dearly Beloved, composed by Yoko Shimomura, arranged by Kyle Landry. I’m down a rabbit hole of finding VERY different arrangements online, all supposedly credited to Kyle Landry. Can anybody help me find a version that’s closest to this? Thanks! (Sorry it’s Spotify for those who don’t have that platform)

The intersection was blocked off by cops and the train car was stopped, from where I was, the car looked derailed. Anybody know what happened?

I got this bobble at the game yesterday and as much as I love the Dodgers, I’m not a collector and would like to give this away to someone who is. If you can meet me at a cafe or someplace public near me, the handoff can take place. Highland park area.

UPDATE: I’ve gotten a few responses. If those don’t work out, I’ll move onto the next responses in order received. Please leave a comment if you’re interested and I’ll get in touch if that becomes the case.
