Not Takanah. Price is important, but not as important as it being nice..
FYI Takana in Lakewood (unlike Brooklyn) can be made really really nice. I know people that are considered very balebatish (300k+ annual income) that have made Takanah weddings.

No.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

Anyone hear about the $99 deal for the Chevy Cruze?
I am sometimes accused of overthinking things. I am still mulling over whether that accusation has merit.

Pretty sure the one that opened where C&G was, has a location in Cedarhurst with the same type of specialty pizza, sushi etc.. and under the same name. The other one in Todd plaza just stole the name, and is just a regular pizza store.

Not  quite. The original Upper Crust is in Cedarhurst. A random person decided to open up one in Lakewood with the same name. Then the one from Cedarhurst decided to open up in Lakewood with his same name. Also the one in Cedarhurst is called the Upper Crust while the one in Todd Plaza is called Upper Crust.
