I loved my dinner here :) I found street parking, it's in a quaint little residential area. The service and ambiance were really cozy and inviting.

All I can say is that I was extremely impressed with this film. Based on the trailers, I was expecting this film to be mediocre, I was wrong. In my opinion, for a superhero film to work, it all narrows down to special effects and the acting. For this movie, both are great. This movie may not have been as good as X-men: First Class or The Dark Knight, but it is an above average superhero movie. Ryan Reynolds is good as always and Mark Strong delivered a strong performance as well. This movie is heavy on special effects and they are SPECTACULAR. The dialogue is nothing new but don't expect it to be excellent given the fact that its a superhero movie. Overall, this movie was very well done and I liked it a whole lot more than I thought it would.

Great acting in Game of Thrones!

I've been a fan of George R.R. Martin's novels for years, so I was madly excited for this show and I'm pleased to say that it didn't disappoint me.

The casting was perfect for major and minor characters alike, and seeing Westeros and Essos come to life was truly awesome. The set design, costuming, cinematography, etc. was all wonderful.

The writers did a great job overall of compressing GRRM's massive novel into a gripping and coherent show. Like any long time fan, I have a few minor gripes, of which the most significant is the changes to Daenarys's storyline, which made the development of her relationship with Khal Drogo less realistic and her storyline in general feel rushed. Her final scene was everything I hoped it would be, though.

Overall, I couldn't have been more pleased with the show. I can't wait for season two!

This is my first foray in the world of Apple after many years of dedicated PC ownership. So far I have been tremendously impressed with the new MacBook Pro. I got the i7 processor and the 7200 RPM 500GB hard drive as upgrades. I'm extremely happy with this purchase and have not regretted it at all. I am becoming a little more of a convert each day to OS X and just how easy it makes things. The thoughtful touches on the multi-touch trackpad alone are amazing to me. I come into work and feel frustrated that I cannot accomplish the same things with such ease.

Large variety of gourmet coffee & tea, reasonable prices, super friendly staff, specialty provisions, and the peace of mind that comes with not having to drink Dunkin "coffee".
