Looking for some grub to grab for lunch as I’m passing through
I like anything and everything
So don’t be picky thinking I won’t like it. Been a while since I’ve been In cuse and want some great eats
See above
My general dentist does not do root canals so they referred me to an endodontist. The endodontist does not accept my insurance and they want $2200 (not including the cost of the crown) to do the root canal.
I can’t afford to not use my insurance. I have $1200 in coverage left on my dental insurance for the year so the insurance will be a big help. Willing to travel up to an hour. Or do you know of any dental offices that will do in-house dental plans? Any suggestions will help!
What about Syracuse style of salt potatoes make them unique or different from potatoes sprinkled salt all over? I say this as someone who grew up on the Northside in the 2010s and have yet to hear mention of them in-person before.
Hi everyone,
I’m an incoming grad student starting at Syracuse University this August, and honestly I’m kind of lost with the apartment search right now. This is my first time moving to Syracuse, so I don’t really know the area or where people actually find decent apartments.
I’ve mainly been using sites like Apartments.com and Zillow looking for a studio apartment, but almost every place either: says there’s a waitlist, or already got leased out immediately.
At this point I genuinely don’t know where people are actually finding housing lol.
I’d prefer a studio or maybe a small 1bd near campus (or somewhere safe with an easy commute). I’m okay paying a bit more for a decent place (still under $1,500 hopefully), but I’m trying to avoid rundown student housing if possible.
Are there better websites, Facebook groups, local property companies, or apartment complexes I should be checking instead? Any neighborhoods grad students usually live in?
Would really appreciate any advice because this whole process has been way harder than I expected 😭
Hi,
we’re four guys, and we’ve put together Westminster’s restaurant scene in an app called Vota. The concept is simple: you see two places side by side (for example Famille vs. Kachina Southwestern Grill), you choose the place you’d rather go to, and the ranking updates instantly. The more people vote, the more accurate the list gets over time. There are still a few duplicates here and there, but I’m continuously cleaning up the data.
Here’s the iPhone version, with categories that actually fit Westminster’s food scene:

And here’s the Android version (finally live):
https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=org.vota.app
P.S. I’m not from Westminster (I live in Gothenburg). I’m not collecting data, not selling anything, and the app does not use AI-generated content. I’m posting in a few different subreddits because we now support more regions, and I genuinely want honest feedback from people who actually know the area.
Does anyone know of any good kayaking spots around here? I’m familiar with a few places in Oswego County that I used to go to as a kid, like Sterling Creek, but my wife and I just picked up some new kayaks and are looking for some places a little closer to home to check out this summer.
I have never purchased a vehicle from drivers village and would like to know what to expect. I plan on checking out the used car warehouse and the Burdick Toyota dealership. Anyone have a recent experience at either? Are they pushy/aggressive with their sales tactics? Do they allow you to haggle at all or are prices firm? Do they give you a hard time when it comes to financing? I would prefer to use my own financing instead of using theirs and I know some dealerships get pissy if you don't finance through them. Do they offer fair values for trade ins? Appreciate any advice.
Looking to get a few yards of black mulch, thinking about just going back to bags again since bulk deliveries are usually too expensive (am 30 mins from the city). It looks like most places are charging 3 cu-ft prices for 2 cubic feet bags nowadays , so I'm wondering if anyone has spotted any good deals this weekend? And yes I can handle the large number of bags.
I'm from Broome County and was looking for recommend for a plastic surgeon or provider in Syracuse that does beautiful filler work, specifically under eye filler. I turned 40 recently and eye creams aren't cutting it. I'm tired of looking BEAT tired all the time because of the shadows this tear trough creates and I don't wear makeup so I'm ready to try a little filler to plump these little divots up and be done for a while.
I already checked Google and have found several highly rated practices but none have any pictures on their sites specifically of under eye filler/tear trough filler before and afters, almost everything they feature are lips. 😞 Has anyone here had their under eyes done and can recommend a provider? My worry is filler migration in that area and I'm looking for feedback.
Thank you in advance for any help, it's greatly appreciated!
P.S. If you don't have anything nice to say or constructive to contribute don't bother commenting, please. Politely move on with your day and choose kindness.
I'm looking for a rec league where I sign up as an individual. The leagues I've found here seem like you sign up as a team. I want to meet people so using the rec league for that.
I'm open to any area near Syracuse, and really any type of intramural sport.
Lonely seniors in Oswego County are finding new friends through an innovative program that pairs them with lifelike robotic cats and dogs.
Since 2018, the Oswego County Office for the Aging has helped more than 400 seniors adopt animatronic pets that purr, whimper, and respond to touch—without the costs or care demands of real animals.
"These can provide a much-needed distraction," says Elizabeth Weimer, Senior Aging Services Specialist. "The feedback we have gotten is that they really do help with loneliness."
The state-funded program provides the pets free to qualifying seniors living independently. The full story is gifted to redditors.
We recently moved into the Fairmount area, and the kids have some neighborhood friends, but both have expressed an interest in making more connections. However, as is age-typical, they are resistant to trying new things.
They are both homeschooled -the public schools where we are from were trash, and they both want to stick with it so as not to have to try public school so late in the game. Despite being homeschooled, they are well-socialized and blend well with same-age peers. This does eliminate school-based sports, clubs, and activities though.
To ask them, they just want to meet new people to game with online. As for me, I think they'd benefit from a little bit of time out of the house and old fashioned face-to-face interaction as well.
They aren't into sports, but also aren't afraid of the outdoors. My 15 year old has interests in archery, guns, hunting, and fishing (all things I am very little help with). My 13 year old is into more niche geeky things. Both of them are into PC gaming.
Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated. Especially scenarios where it would be easy for them to check it out in a non-committal way through a website or FB page or something.
(Side-note: my 15 year old would be glad for a job instead if there's anywhere that reliably hires 15 year olds)
Does anybody know what places are hiring? preferably with monday-friday morning availability
I'm heading into NYC for a couple of days and I'm planning to drive most of the way, park in a commuter lot, and take the Metro North into the city. Is there a particular station that's most convenient from Syracuse to leave the car at? I'm hoping to not have to pay too much for parking.
Sorry if this was already asked! I'm a very beginner gardener planting my first raised bed this year. I have my lovely little seedlings ready to go (tomatoes, peppers, lettuce, the usual) and an assortment of seeds to sow...but this weather has been pretty confusing. I was hoping to plant everything tomorrow after this hot spell passes, but now I'm hearing we have low temperatures at night?? I have no idea when to plant or if I missed the window or what 😭
Have you guys already planted or are you waiting? Is June too late to plant?
Again, these are /large/ pitty mixes. Adorable but large. Pls leash your dogs.
Ps) this was NOT the pit named Blue. He is very well behaved and his owner is super considerate.
