Restaurants & Food / Re: Lamoon - new Thai restaurant in Elmhurst

« on: August 21, 2019, 02:52:52 PM »

I would eat there everyday if I could. We had the mango salad, tea flavored pad thai and a spicy red curry and the sticky rice dessert in coconut milk. Their fragrant leaf house tea is heavenly.

I recommend New York Floor Interiors. They did great work and quickly supplied the workers comp and liability insurance forms my co-op required. My co-op was particular about the type of paint used and they complied. I recommend staying at an airbnb or booking a cheap hotel through HotelTonight during the work.

Real Estate & Home Improvement / Removing co-owner from your co-op unit

« on: July 26, 2017, 06:27:26 PM »

Has anyone successfully removed a co-owner's name from your co-op unit? What are the steps? With the co-owner's consent, of course.

Thank you.

Does anyone have experience removing a co-owner of your own co-op unit? What are the steps to move from co-owning shares to becoming the sole owner?

I have the co-owner's consent, of course.

Thank you.

$5-$10 depending on # and weight of bags.

Have you used Instacart? It comes in handy when I need a lot of things same-day but can't make the trek. They deliver from Food Universe, Food Cellar, Fresh N Save, and CVS. Here's my $10 referral: https://inst.cr/t/pNNUzdWp3

Neighborhood Chat / Rogue private garbage truck on 37th Ave

« on: February 05, 2015, 01:33:37 PM »

One night in early October I was walking down 37th Ave when a garbage truck was doing its runs down the same street. It had a private name (i.e. not city) and numerous guys popped in & out wearing t-shirts and umbro-type shorts. They picked up garbage at Jackson Diner and Subzi Mandi, among other businesses. The reason they caught my attention was they accelerated though red lights (not ones changing from yellow to red but RED LIGHTS) *and* each time they stopped to do a pickup the truck parked diagonally, totally blocking traffic from behind. I purposely avoided crossing the street while they were around.

The name was printed on the side of the truck tho I don't remember it. Anyone witnessed or familiar with the rogue garbage truck?

Real Estate & Home Improvement / Floor Sanding & Compliance

« on: July 04, 2012, 12:37:39 PM »

Hello! Does anyone have experience with floor sanding in your co-op recently? My co-op requires contractors to be EPA certified in compliance with lead poisoning prevention. Does the EPA certification apply to sanding and glossing floors?

Thanks!

I second Dr. Veniamin Levant. He pulled a wisdom tooth (w only local anaesthesia) and I didn't mind the experience at all. He's gentle and very reassuring. I didn't even touch the prescription ibuprofen dur recovery.

The cleanings administered by his asst are very painful tho. :*(

Madalyn, I didn't find a holistic dentist who takes insurance til I moved to the west coast.
