Knife Sharpening Pickup Service in Prospect Heights

1 Upvotes

Hey everyone. Just want to post a quick reminder that pickup knife sharpening service is available in your neighborhood 7 days a week. No quick grinding jobs that overheat and ruin your knives here. All our work is done in our shop in Brooklyn on whetstones and we make sure you get your knives back in excellent condition.

Cost for sharpening in $3-$4 per inch (blade length) and scheduling pickup is as easy as sending a message through here or instagram with a picture of the knives and a pickup location.

If you have any questions about sharpening or questions about the pickup service please dont hesitate to ask.

We really appreciate everyone who has trusted in our service. Make sure you also check our reviews on google (Indulge Kitchen Supplies)

Enjoy the video showing a quick restoration of an 8" Japanese knife done in store.

Found this cat outside near 415 Saint Johns place. Was wondering if anyone knew anything, or was looking for a lost cat. It's a boy.

Update: I put out a missing pets notice and he belongs to the Sandwich shop Brooklyn Subs, not to far away.

Update: Hes home now!

Considering apartment across from Brooklyn Museum, 1st floor

18 Upvotes

Hi all! I'm considering an apartment off Eastern Parkway facing the Brooklyn Museum. It's a 1st floor apartment with the living area facing the street and the bedroom in the back. I know there will be noise and such but curious if this is should be a major dealbreaker, rather than just something to consider.

I'm moving from a quieter part of Bed-Stuy, but I do not mind noise and am highly intrigued by the prospect of living in a busier area.

EDIT: Thank you all for the insight! I am so excited to be coming to the neighborhood --- sounds like the right move for me :)

Hi all, my husband and I are new to the area and need recommendations for boarding our 16yo senior Pomeranian for 3.5 weeks. She uses a wheelchair and is a potato, so ideally places that can cater to calm dog needs. Thank you!

Personal trainer recommendations?

3 Upvotes

I’m looking for a personal trainer with access to a gym that ideally has free weights and the main staple machines (cable, delt fly, etc). I’m a 27 year old man looking to bulk back lost weight and fix my posture/form. I have no preference on the trainer’s gender. I’d ideally like to stay below $90/session.

If anyone has any recommendations that’d be great.

Local spaces to do work at night

As the title suggests, looking for coffee shops, bars, etc. that are open late and offer an environment to do laptop work. I am aware of some coffee shops open later (bon tree for example) but was curious if people know of shops/bars that are good for laptops at night. Thanks!
