Greetings, JH Lifers. Just in case you missed it, this website will be closing down on December 31st. It's been a great journey, but it is time for this site to walk off into the sunset (or whatever lies on the other side of the BQE). Please see our recent announcement for more information.
Hopefully this is just the beginning of a new chapter in efforts to build community online and in real life. Come join your neighbors at r/jacksonheights or r/queens on Reddit, Jackson Heights 11372 on Facebook, and the venerable JHfamilies group on Google.

it does look great, but outsourcing burgers from a fast food chain? will there be white castles for those who prefer smaller portions?Took this pic from the instagram page...they are making a smashed burger not "smash burger" https://www.instagram.com/p/Buh0OIdhZTj/?utm_source=ig_share_sheet&igshid=1evujeq7c2jkc
QuoteOMG It's open?I will report back shortly.
I stopped by at 4pm yesterday- it was packed and there was a long line, which was nice to see. I realized I was not hungry and decided to try again in the morning. Which I just did. This is going to be a great addition to the neighborhood.
First, it's just a soft opening - someone mentioned the lack of variety but they are going to have much more in about two weeks. The burgers will come from Smash Burger and they have La Colombe coffee, which I love!
thereisnosubstitute, they had kouign amann this morning and I just ate one; it was really good. I don't normally love almond cream but I bought it on a whim instead of a chocolate croissant. The dough is very high quality and well-made and the inside almond mush was not overly sweet, which is always appreciated.
The gelato wasn't out yet (I went at around 9am) and now that I think about it, I can't remember if I saw any bread for sale (like I saw yesterday). I was focused on the pastries.
Edited: hum@njukebox1, there were apple turnovers when I was there this morning.
