The food is meh. Got it twice when he was still doing pop ups and it wasn't worth the money or the process either time. I can make a better steak and cheese in my skillet at home for a lot less money and time.

I drive on these streets and it’s a combination of a few things
-
Drivers are aggressive “me first” and very inpatient.
-
Distracted driving with the loud stupid music and phone in hand or driving on drugs with weed fumes pouring out of the car so strong I get second handedly high for a few seconds.
-
The road design sucks, there’s more than a few streets that have the lanes, if you were to follow them to the tee, would drive you into the other side of the street into oncoming traffic. Like that road between the highway over the diner and the closed down meat store with the giant gay pride flag on it.
-
Uneducated drivers, I see people inside! The rotary coming to a complete stop to let people outside the rotary enter and pass in. I also see all the time at the grafton rotary, drivers block the fucking rotary because of “me first” and don’t stop on the line to leave the rotary open and let traffic continuously flow. So they sit in the rotary clogging the street. Until the red light far down the road turns green. There’s so much backed up traffic because of this jack ass behavior.
-
Driving school is a joke. Where I work I can see out the window, different driving schools use my street for new drivers to learn how to parallel park and how to 3 point turn. So almost every person rides up on the curb, almost smashes the parked car or gives up and drives off.
-
Messed up roads with giant potholes has ppl swerving in and out of lanes to avoid them and these same ppl Never use their side mirrors to check if they’re gonna ram someone else out of their lane. Same with these little attention starved little kids always doing wheelies on their probably stolen bikes or dirt bikes who take up the whole road or on the wrong side of the road to be edgy.
-
Nobody knows what a turn signal is or what the speed limit is. Or how to merge.
-
If it’s not aggressive drivers, tailgating up your ass pickup trucks, it’s on drugs drivers, distracted drivers, or the sleepy slow idk where the fuck I’m going drivers that refuse to keep up with the pace of traffic which seemingly, seemingly like to instigate and coax drivers into road rage
Some ppl really don’t belong on the road or should have access to a motor vehicle

Not sure what you're looking for in terms of features, but I bought a Weber Spirit E-330 last summer. Can't say enough good things about it.
3 burners, plus searing burner. Also has a side burner.
We had it assembled and delivered to our summer place in Thompson CT for free from Bousquet's in Danielson, CT for $800 or so.
Not sure if they service your area, but if you call and get a quote, another more local company might price match.

Google ciggy bombs and youll have about 50% of your answer. Foods is palatable people are nice place is clean, everything else is subjective opinions.
The new place on the block, especially one with such a massive social media presence, is bound to draw all manner of debate.

I'd agree, overall as an average, stagnant. Some things are better, others not as much. Less affordable, but that goes for most cities.

Sandbagged fried food is not good fried food.

I don’t know if I’d say Worcester has declined since then but I’d say it’s stagnant

It was a long time ago when Worcester was on an upswing artistically and realistically, you could still get a nice three bedroom apartment for under 1k.

Three double IPAs and a couple Completos were a solid night back in 2012.

Made a good choice. Whitco is my go-to store for bicycles and appliances.
I find Klems has gotten so big that their customer service has suffered. BTW, my family had been buying tractors and farm supplies from them since the 1950's.

I’m from Worcester but my wife is from Rhode Island. I asked her if she thought Worcester drivers were bad and she said she hadn’t noticed. Lol

I do not recall that vendor, but is there a demand for food at last call, I may be interested in providing the service.
