A: It pains me to write this review--I want so badly to like the Astor House--I love the Tuck Shop and never have had a bad meal there. but things are just not right at the Astor House--we ate there last night on Halloween. What a missed marketing opportunity--Trick and Treaters kept stopping by --we heard many saying we had no idea this place was here. instead of handing out a coupon for a macaroon with lunch--the staff did nothing and were actually kind of funky when people walked in. The Astor House needs to get an identity--the "service" is just funky--neither a cafeteria nor service--you would think with 4 people in the restaurant--you would not have to go to the end of the counter and pick up your "tray" of food. the tables are wobbly and the chairs are uncomfortable--things that I wouldn't care about if the food was good. On to the food--I may have a bias because I spent a lot of time in Kansas City and know what good barbecue is--what is being served is not. the meat continues to be dry and the sauces are yucky--they are two sweet or weirdly spiced.--the one highlight was the link--chicken and garlic was good. The food is served in paper on trays--all i can say is yuck!--we had to ask for paper plates--which at least made the eating process tolerable.. the Astor House is in a great neighborhood--but even the neighbors who can walk there are either going to go to the Tuck Shop or walk a few more blocks to 7th st to restaurants that have much better food. I will definitely be back to the Tuck Shop over and over again, but am done with the Astor House--have been there several times--and it is just not right--they need to find out what the neighbors want and be that--coffee, sandwich, drinks and snacks--do --something well and be at the level of the Tuck Shop instead of a pretend cafeteria-- .

A: The Village is not just a gym...it's a lifestyle. Like most have already said on here, the prices are more than other gyms in the area; but The Village is also so much more than other gyms in the area. I paid $500 to sign up and then pay around $140/month for my membership. Yes, this is a lot of money, but for me it is definitely worth it! I had signed up to the other gyms in the area at different times for $25-30/month, but I think I only went 2 times in the two years I was paying the memberships, so it was cheaper but not worth the price. I go to The Village sometimes 6 days per week and will even go when I'm not working out just to sit and do stuff on my laptop (they offer free Wi-Fi) or to get lunch or dinner at one of the two little cafes. The Village is what you make it; what you want it to be. You can go and just do weights and cardio in the extensive weight room and cardio room. They have tons of free weights and machines and then even more cardio equipment. Even during the busiest times at the gym I've never seen machines filled like I have seen at other places. There is a 1/18 mile track upstairs with another workout room that has a variety of equipment including a TRX and Kinesis. If you want to go above and beyond just working out by yourself there are many different classes which range from Zumba to Yoga to Spin to Athletic Conditioning and more. The Cycling room has, I think, 45 bikes which are completely adaptable to you and very comfortable for spin classes. The Yoga room is beautiful, calming, relaxing and not out in the open like many other gyms. There is a Pilates room which is fully equipped with reformers and tons of other Pilates stuff. There is also a basketball court, squash court, raquetball courts, 15 tennis courts and 2 pools, both heated one for play and one for laps. They have a full spa and salon, a wine bar that serves food, cafe that serves food and smoothies. The locker rooms are fully equipped...you don't have to bring anything except the clothes you plan on wearing home! I don't have kids, but they also have locker rooms for families and rooms for kids while parents are working out. Like I said, The Village is what you make it. This is true with the different activities that they offer. There are hikes, running groups, weight loss competitions and non-exercise related activities, like Casino Night. I love The Village and I am not a "gym-rat" type person at all. The people are friendly, healthy and you can definitely see that they enjoy being at The Village when they are there, compared to other places where it is a chore to get into the gym.

Answer: Speaking as a collector of rare & OOP VHS tapes (yes, some of us still have VCR's), I have found Bookman's "pricing structure" for VHS tapes to be terribly inconsistent. One day, a discontinued title, one which isn't available on DVD or Blu-Ray, is priced upwards of $40-$50. Then, the next day (still unavailable on DVD or Blu-Ray), it's in the clearance bin for $1.00. Which is it? Pick a price and stick to it. The fact of the matter is, you do have better odds finding rare & OOP VHS tapes at pawn shops and thrift stores, neither of which will be terribly snobby about clearing it off their shelves for less than what Bookman's charges. Case in point: I snagged a VHS copy of Todd Solondoz's rare first movie "Fear Anxiety & Depression" (1989, pre-"Welcome To The Dollhouse") in excellent condition at one of those nondescript pawn shops further up along Country Club, and I paid less than a cup of coffee. So, my recommendation for VHS collectors: Skip Bookman's unless you like getting hosed on titles you can easily - ok, not *easy* easily - find elsewhere for less. (I'm not referring to the DVD's, of course: I've got no doubt Bookman's is the cat's meow for that - just don't go here if you're a serious VHS collector.)

Output: RIP OFF! Do yourself a favor and go into the south Grand Canyon entrance. The West entrance is on an Indian reservation. They charge an outrageous amount of money to see the canyon. They wanted $150 for two of us. The South entrance, all you pay is parkimg and there is more to see and do.

Answer:
This is my favorite HT but not my most visited. This store use to be lowes foods...until about a half a year ago....its big and clean. Almost the exact same setup as the Lowes....Its in a shopping center with chick-fil-a,a jasons deli, and a chinese restaurant so you could enjoy some other eats.
