I’ve been in the neighborhood for over 60 years now and that use to be a vegetable stand named “McMuffin’s Vaggies” Oh how i miss the good ol’ days! But Korean food is probably the best food on earth and i hear Kim Chee is the new French Fries… ohh sorry i meant Freedom Fries. Maybe we can rename Kim Chee to Obama Chee. Or Trump Chee in 2016!

I have a 100% accuracy rate judging local eateries.

This restaurant will succeed even if they are mediocre.

I am a dyslexic mathematician. The golden girls of Sunnyside spa need a place to rest their arthritic hands.
