Au revoir or auf wiedersehn from LIC?
Presidents Day week/end brings no new news to LIC, as it is time to visit the Saints …Anton, Barts, Kitts, Moritz etc. Or, if you don’t have a life(a.k.a. have children), you may pick from a menu of three choices: Atlantis, Orlando, or Uncle Mo’s spare bedroom in Boynton Beach. If neither of these options is doable, may I recommend a quick get away to Poland? You will not need plane reservations, though a car would be handy, but not essential. Karczma, a Polish restaurant several blocks from the Pulaski Bridge, does a good job of transporting you temporarily from NYC. Furthermore, after a few $5 Okocim or Zywiec pints, you’ll quickly forget that you are not sunning, schussing, shuttling, or shuffleboarding like everyone else in New York. Best of all, this option is a great one whether you have a life or not. Oh wait, you want more? How about if I tell you that when the bill comes you will feel like the wealthiest man in Krakow? That should make you stop feeling sorry for yourself, GO!
Countries Largest Rock Climbing Gym Coming to LIC – yup, we know and can’t wait
Uncle Mo’s in Boynton sounds like a good option
How about booking a suite at the Z Hotel and schussing down the LIC Matterhorn for Prez Day weekend.
In the kick’em when they’re down category, the MTA suspended downtown 6 train service for the weekend. Thus when you take the E or F from Court Square one stop across the river, you cannot transfer to a downtown train.
Not only am I stuck in LIC for this frigid 3-day weekend, but it’s also the weekend of weak sports programming as the NFL is done for the season and the NBA holding its lame all-star game.
