Three Jolly Pigeons Looks Beautiful
I never thought I would write The Three Jolly Pigeons and the word ‘beautiful’ in the same sentence, but it’s true!
3JP got a makeover and it looks amazing!
They are calling people in with their sangria and spicy watermelon margarita!
When I was a kid, I felt my Irish grandmother was lonely because both my grandfather died long before I was born. I would encourage my grandmother to go to The Three Jolly Pigeons and find a boyfriend. My grandmother was in her 60’s and wasn’t looking, but she would tell everyone that I told her to go to 3JP to find a husband!

South Shore Republican Club in Bay Ridge
Oh I just saw this so today.
Update: Tonight was their meeting and Assemblyman Lester Chang was there, so that’s a good sign!
While I am not a Republican, we all know we need a new city council representative because lobbyists are winning in our community!

The Asian Community Wanted to Give Criminals a Clean Slate? Iwen Chu Voted for Clean Slate
I’ve never heard anyone in the Asian community calling to give criminals a “clean slate.”
Senator Andrew Gounardes was pushing for Clean Slate. Iwen Chu voted in favor of a Clean Slate, which means that people who went to jail for manslaughter, deserve a Clean Slate in eight years (it was written as seven on one of the bills).
Records will automatically be sealed three years (for smaller crimes).
I’m shocked that a mother would vote to clean the slate for people who have killed other people’s children. Many cases are settled with plea deals down to manslaughter.

Roll-N-Roaster Brought Back Cottage Fries
Roll-n-Roaster brought back the crinkle-cut potato rounds, known as cottage fries.
Regular visitors to Roll-n-Roaster were not happy when the cottage fries were replaced on the menu last year. NYC Youtuber, Michael Quinn had a petition to bring back the old fries!
Some people love the old style – some love the new. Roll-n-Roaster didn’t get rid of the new ones when they brought back the cottage fries. They are called Dippers on the menu.

Merchants in BR Celebration 6/14
Merchants in Bay Ridge register here.
They will have FREE business resources and development specialists offering opportunities for financing, marketing/social media, hiring/training staff, navigating government agencies and much more.
Someone should hire two teenagers to deliver a flyer to each merchant so they are all invited.
I like that there is an Arabic translation, but a Chinese translation would be good too.

Heads Up Dyker Heights – You Have Visitors
This morning, two women were going door-to-door in Dyker Heights. One resident heard their dog barking and went to the front door. She spoke through the window to find out why the women were on her stoop. They asked if anyone was deaf or hard of hearing in the house.
The Brooklyn resident asked the women to please leave and they responded, “we need to know if anyone is deaf or hard of hearing.” These could be pushy salespeople for an earpiece, but it’s a strange visit on Sunday morning.
Last night there was a driveway visitor in the 80’s at 9:50pm.
At 12:00 am, a different man walked up the stairs of the same house.
* Last week, an 82-year-old man had his watch stolen on 17th Avenue and 86th Street. (See here) Not one local paper reported it, even though the theft was reported to the police!
Why are elected leaders allowing people to stake out the neighborhood and rob seniors? Their silence and failure to act says they don’t care!
No one should be walking around neighborhoods trying doorknobs and walking in people’s backyards.

Filming in Bay Ridge on Tuesday, June 13th
On Tuesday, June 13th, there will be more filming in Bay Ridge and more parking restrictions in the area.
Shore Road between 83rd and 86th Street has orange ‘No Parking’ signs for a project called Out of the Kitchen. A Google search shows that this is the code word for: “Out the Kitchen: is the title used for Daredevil.
Also Community Board 10 announced that there will be filming at Xaverian High School on Tuesday. They didn’t say who was filming.
I wish that filming companies that used street parking provided residents parking codes to use at nearby lots, so residents weren’t inconvenienced in a busy area.

In Bay Ridge:
1. Lavender Body Work 7504 – 3rd Ave (between 75th and 76th Streets). Full body – $40 for an hour. A lot of people go here because they also have a punchcard that allows you to score a free massage.
