Curio Theatre Company by Smarley

Summer Camp! The teachers in my daughter's school tell her, whenever she gets up to talk, or give a presentation, "well, you look like you're comfortable talking in public, and do a very good job presenting your material". That's because of Curio Summer Camp! The children learn how to write, costume, and perform a skit in 2 weeks! And no one ever drops their lines!! Unbelievable. The teaching is so good in every aspect of theatre, the kids come away with very important life skills, like talking in public, and/or in front of others. And the confidence level in social settings is noticeable also.
Thanks Curio!!

I went to 'The Odyssey' in their new space in the Sanctuary at
Calvary. WoW! What a production! What a space!

If 'What the Butler Saw' is half as good, it will be bloomin'
marvellous, as the Brits would say.
HIGHLY RECOMMENDED

Last weekend I attended the Etc.... Performance series at this
location. It was fantastic. High class dance performances.
Post-modern, modern, breakin' all sorts.... MC'd by a cutie
named Charles. Here's the deal. Anyone can do anything for 20
minutes. This months was all dance but it varies depending on
who applies. It is held every 2 months. Next is May. Sign up
required. Go to their website. I highly recommend this.

Han Wool Restaurant & Sushi Bar by nrosetulip

Hidden gem. My favorite: #150. I don't remember the name or whether it's Japanese or Korean. Here's what it is:
a small pile of cubes of mixed sashimi (raw fish)
on top of a bed of finely cut dark lettuce
on top of a bed or warm steamed rice
on top are some shreds of dried seaweed, toasted sesame, other bits of fish or maguro (eggs)... you get chili sauce and the side dishes.
IT IS AWESOME. Not cheap, but i can't imagine a healthier lunch.

Great Buffet for a great price. Relaxed and easy going atmosphere, conducive to conversation and allows you to enjoy the delicious food. In quantities far too large for normal consumption.

Bucks County Coffee by njm828

Best Caramel Apple Cider, hands down. If you can get a table, it's a pretty good environment for doing work, but not hardcore studying-- def. too loud. Pretty much, I live in there though.

I went back to World Cafe last night and they had gotten their act together much more than the last time I was there. Service was fine, friendly and reasonably rapid. Much, MUCH better than the last time I was there.

Went there for dinner and enjoyed it, but was not completely blown away. I've meaning to go for brunch because I've heard mad raves about that.

Great room. Great music. Marginal food, at best. Last time I was there (and I go a fair amount) the service was terrible-- it took a solid hour to serve our drinks. It's worth it because the music is so good and it's generally a wonderful place to listen.
