Any one have a recommendation for a carpet cleaning place?  There are a few and the price difference from one to another is $50 so wondering who's really good. Thanks!

I heard Schnitzys. But I sure hope it's Holy Schnitzel!  I'll be there every night. I'm sold on their Tony Special, though all their sandwiches are great.
Yup. I had that Tony sandwich numerous times at the Staten Island location.
 Whoever it is, it better be opened until 2.
That's the only hour I ever went to kosher taco. we need a replacement.

Wow I never heard of either of those places. Where are they now?
Schnitzys is probably Brooklyn's most prominent Schnitzel store, and Holy Schnitzel is a Staten Island based Schnitzel store that has since opened locations in Cederhurst and Flatbush.

What's a good and nice gym to go to around here (don't care about kosher)? For treadmill maybe a bit of weights. I have been to the Lakewood gym it's survivable but not at the prices they charge.

The place on James is called The Kosher Weight Room. It's in a storage unit center. If all you want is a treadmill and weights its fine. It costs $160 a year. No showers, pool, changing room etc.

It is a pretty place? No it's a weight room. If all you need is to come, run and work out it's fine. If you're looking for a nice locker room to hang out in it's not the place to go.
