Ming's II
Consistently wins D&C's award for "Best Noodles". Their interesting noodle dishes are available along with regular Americanized Chinese food fare, which is very good in the opinion of the submitter. Near the corner of Monroe and Culver. Consistently the best. The staff and cooks are very hospitable. — Best damn noodles in town. The noodle soups are unmatched, and the noodle stir-fries have no comparison! — Ming II is phenomenal. I eat here at least twice a week. — Ming II is always a plesure to eat at. We've always loved the food there. My Thai father in law swears by it (which should say something about its authenticity) — Maybe they have gone through some changes because the restaurant I went to today was not the one described here. I am convinced there was at least 0.5 - 1 cup of oil in my noodles. I am aware that fresh noodles need a bit of oil in them to keep them from sticking - but not a whole cup for a plate. Moreover, it was utterly flavourless. The only thing I could taste was the oil. The chicken had a very slimy texture. Add in a couple of pieces of shredded carrot and cabbage and that was my dinner (and my friend's dinner...and my boyfriend's dinner. Scarily - we did not get the same dish.). —

MacGregor's
MacGregor's is a local chain of bar and grills. They have 70+ beers on tap including seasonal, local, and some exotic selections, with cheap and diverse pitcher specials. At some (perhaps all) locations, they refill growlers. Regular visitors can join the Beer Club and earn points for merchandise. MacGregor's has smoking patios and take out food available. All MacGregor's locations have free WiFi. Former Locations The first location was on Gregory Street in the the city's South Wedge neighborhood. It had a pool table, two electronic dart boards, and a jukebox. Unfortunately, complaints about noise, street parking, and drunken patrons incurred fines and caused the owner to close this location rather than jeopardize his liquor license for the other locations. A new bar, Tap and Mallet, opened in this location November 2007. In February 2009 the owner closed the Perinton location at 7408 Pittsford-Palmyra Road following a visit from the New York State Labor Department1. The Gates location was shut down in June 2013 but reopened in November. Their remaining city location, in the Hiram Sibley Building, closed in 2015 and was replaced by Filgers East End. In mid-2018 another location opened in Brighton in the former Zebb's building. It closed "temporarily," along with those in Penfield (1129 Empire Boulevard, opened 2007) and Greece (300 Center Place Drive, opened 2015), during the COVID-19 pandemic. As of April 2022 none has reopened, and to all appearances (including the website) the closures are permanent.

Bloomfield
History Bloomfield, originally part of the Phelps and Gorham Purchase, was formed in 1789 and included Mendon, Victor, East Bloomfield and West Bloomfield. The town of East Bloomfield was defined in 1833. Benjamin Keyes purchased most of the land that constitutes the present-day village from Oliver Phelps in 1794 and that year his large family started settling the village. Our pioneer settlers from New England arrived here in 1789 and proceeded to develop agriculture as the primary industry. The village became a bustling community in the first half of the nineteenth century, offering many agriculture-related businesses to the vicinity. The residents prospered and built many lovely houses that fortunately have survived to the present day. The walking tour starts in historic Elton Park and proceeds around the village's Historic District.

Puket
Restaurants : Thai Food : Restaurant serving Thai cuisine. Located in Webster. passable food - deplorable service. I know that most asian restaurants are family owned, but when you have a five year old who can barely see over the table BUSSING.... I think it is time that you should hire help. The sole adult waitress came by a grand total of twice. I dont know if this was a one off experience but the food wasn't good enough for me to give it another spin. — I went there for lunch, the food was good (I had the chicken Pad Phet) although it took abnormally long. I would go here again but I do like a little bit better. There is lots of seating so you won't have to worry about lunch or dinner rushes. — The food at this restaurant is pretty good. I have to say though, I have never experienced service worse than the service at Puket. I have been here three times (hoping that the service would just work itself out), and every time, it seems to just get worse! We went here a couple of months ago and had the best Thai food we've ever had in Rochester. Very very good food, better than King and I. The service is slow, yes, but on the evening we went, it wasn't intolerable, and our person was very pleasant. — According to my wife, there's a "For Lease" sign on the building this morning. I'm not sure of they just moved or closed their doors all together. — The owners had told a few of my co workers that they are moving, not sure of the new address yet (or if its true). — Just heard from someone at work that they moved down the road. It sounded like they moved into the old Salads Etc building. — I ate here recently and was pleasantly surprised. The food was quite reasonably priced and very good.. The spring rolls were fresh; their wrappers weren't dried out at all. I sampled a green curry and was impressed; I'm not usually fan of any of the dishes which incorporate coconut milk, but this was delicious. I ordered my standby Thai entree: vegetable pad prikpao. The vegetables in the dish were cooked perfectly and I thought the sauciness level was about ideal (enough to enjoy with rice, not so much as to be overpowering). Service: terrible Food: afwul I had a nice dinner here. It was fresh and cooked really well. The server was very nice. It wasnt too busy when i went so of course we had a quite dinner. I think they've moved a few doors down from their previous location. Would definitely try them out if you like thai food. —
Dashen
Now the location of South Wedge Colony Bar & Grille. Dashen was an Ethiopian restaurant located on the corner of South and Alexander Street in the South Wedge. Not as formal (or, some would say, nice) an experience as Abyssinia, but generally cheaper. Opinions vary on the food's quality. The author thinks it is better than Abyssinia; a past author thought it was worse. Try both and see for yourself! Every Saturday night from 9pm until 2am there's an African DJ (the regulars are from Zimbabwe and Mali) playing the full range of African dance music.

JOSANA Neighborhood
The JOSANA Neighborhood is a located west of Sahlen's Stadium and north of Interstate 490. Ames Street and Campbell Street are its main thoroughfares. The name stands for the Jay Orchard Street Area Neighborhood Association, which was formed in 2001 following the shooting death of 10-year-old Tyshaun Cauldwell and subsequent galvanization of the residents. Like the adjacent Lyell-Otis, Dutchtown, U.N.I.T. neighborhoods, JOSANA has some light industry as well. Nearly all of its housing stock was built before 1935. History The area known today as JOSANA was once part of Dutchtown - a corruption of the original "Deutschtown" - for its concentration of German immigrants. They planted numerous fruit trees, resulting in the nickname Fruit and Nut Neighborhood. This horticultural heritage can still be seen in the street names of Orchard, Lime, Walnut, Grape, Orange, and Maple. 1 The Germans were later joined by Italians who worked in the many industries along the river. By the twentieth century, Dutchtown was a bustling, working-class neighborhood of modest homes and apartments, with Jay Street as a busy commercial corridor lined with small ethnic shops. The Charles Settlement House was founded in 1917 to help these immigrants adjust to their new lives. A transition began in the 1950s and '60s with the arrival of African-Americans from the south, followed by Puerto Ricans in the 1970s. Still, the white flight to the suburbs left many properties abandoned, while others were swept up by absentee landlords and converted to multiple units. By the dawn of the twenty-first century, Dutchtown had become Ghost Town, a Detroit-style dystopia of empty lots and vacant structures. Today, JOSANA is characterized by its unique demographics: one-third white, one-third black, and one-third Hispanic. 2 3 Activism Just ten years ago, JOSANA was a different place, a neighborhood broken by decades of decline and abandonment and commonly referred to as "Ghost Town" for its eerily quiet streets and homes left vacant by residents fleeing the devastating effects of drugs, crime, and pervasive poverty that had come to define the area. For the long-term residents who remained in the neighborhood and those who found themselves there for lack of alternatives elsewhere, daily life felt like a constant struggle to maintain a sense of safety and security. Indeed, within Rochester’s infamous "crescent" of distressed neighborhoods ringing Downtown to the north and west, "Ghost Town" had earned itself a reputation as among the worst of the worst neighborhoods. In 2001, tragedy struck the community when 10-year-old Tyshaun Cauldwell, outside playing near his home one hot summer evening, was caught in crossfire that erupted during an argument over a bicycle and killed – an innocent bystander taken far before his time. It was this devastating turn of events that thrust the neighborhood into the public eye, galvanized neighbors into action, and attached a sense of urgency to a renewed push for change . . . By many measures, the neighborhood has made great strides. Through their dedicated efforts over the past decade, JOSANA neighbors and their partners have reinvented the community, transforming it from a place characterized solely by tragedy to one defined by action, organization, investment, and potential. Due to the urgency and severity of the issues, the flurry of activity preceded a coordinated planning initiative, and while a master plan for the neighborhood is thus long overdue, all of the hard work by JOSANA neighbors and their partners over the past decade has set the stage for positive and lasting change. - From the JOSANA Neighborhood Master Plan, pp. 1-2, released February 2011 based on input from local residents. Read it here. (Note that this is a very large PDF. If it doesn't load, try the link from here.) In 2012 Project Scion, a local organization that turns vacant lots into pocket parks, chose JOSANA as the site for their very first project. The Orchard was completed in July with the help of neighborhood residents and is maintained by the community as a prized green space. The Stadium Estates are expected to be completed by the end of 2015. There still remains much to be done, however. According to 2012 data, the area between Jay Street and 490 was deemed to be the seventh most dangerous neighborhood in the U.S.. 53% of the homes in JOSANA are owned by absentee landlords and 29% of the children under six tested in the very high range for lead poisoning.4 Establishments Abundant Life Faith Ministry Allen Auto Parts Corporation Duffy's Food Service and Parts H&S Motors Just Press Print Ontario Building Supply Co., Inc.

Railroad
View of the Goodman Street Yard from an artist's studio loft at 176 Anderson Street. Taken during the Landmark Society NOTA tour of Sept. 29, 2012. For information on Amtrak service to/from Rochester, see How To Get To Rochester. Rochester used to have a beautiful train station designed by Claude Bragdon in 1914. Alas, it was torn down in 1965 thanks to misguided "urban renewal" efforts catering to the almighty automobile. A few fragments have been preserved and were exhibited at the University of Rochester Dept. of Rare Books & Special Collections in 2010. To see what could have been, check out the grand Utica train station, which has expertly preserved and is often used for wedding photographs. The next Amtrak Station was built in the 1970s and was actually meant to be a temporary structure. The Louise M. Slaughter Rochester Station (named after politician Louise Slaughter) opened in 2017 and is an Amtrak intermodal transit station. Local and regional bus transportation is provided by the Rochester-Genesee Regional Transportation Authority (RGRTA). Taxi firms also serve the station. The station is located on the north side of Rochester at 320 Central Avenue, as were the previous two stations.

AndreaCogliati/Reviews/Bodhi's Cafe
Bodhi's Café 274 N. Goodman Street Rochester, NY 14607 (585) 473-2030 http://bodhiscafe.com/ RocWiki main page Visited on March 6, 2008 at 7:45 pm Fine dining experience at café prices. Live music during the weekend, usually on Friday and Saturday nights. Ambiance Bodhi's Café is a lounge restaurant and café located in the Village Gate district. It's designed as an open-space loft, with high ceiling, concrete floor and bohemian furnishing: there are an antique piano, a country bench and an aquarium, several photos (for sale) on the walls. The atmosphere is soft and relaxed and invites to quietly enjoy the chef creations. Tables and chairs are neat; no tablecloth, revealing the café soul. Tumblers are used for water and wine, a modern choice I do not particularly fancy. Menu Fusion cuisine. The menu shows very good intentions of using common ingredients (like tuna, salmon, chicken, shrimp) or less common ones (like grouper or chuck loin) in an unusual and creative way. Results are first-class and tasty, without been excessive. A few choices for vegetarians are present as well. Appetizers ranges from $6 to $8, while entrees are in $10-$16. Drink List Wine list is limited: a dozen wines, available per glass or per bottle, are listed, plus 3 house wines, available per carafe. You can chose among several grapes and world regions, though. A dozen beers and a selection of teas and infusions are available as well. Meal Wines We chose to drink two glasses of wine: Heron Hill Chardonnay (Finger Lakes, NY) $5 Medium body, good acidity, nice citrus and grapefruit flavors. Fat Cat Merlot (California) $6 Medium body, clear varietal flavors with just a hint of oak. Spring Rolls Fresh shrimp, napa cabbage, carrots, green onion and sweet and spicy dipping sauce. $6 Basically a shrimp salad wrapped in a surprisingly transparent, somewhat jelly, wrap. The fresh basil leaves, the hazelnut relish and the dipping sauce create an interesting contrast. A good start. Score: 13/20 Pan-seared Grouper Pan-seared grouper over jasmine rice cake, topped with a coconut curry lime sauce and a kimchee salad. $16 South-eastern asian influences in this light, simple but tasty delicacy, presented as a small pagoda in the dish. An amazing, meticulous culinary understatement. Score: 16/20 Black Peppercorn Crusted Chuck Loin Black peppercorn crusted chuck loin over roasted garlic and sour cream, smashed potatoes topped with horseradish cream sauce and braised spinach. $16 Strong flavors for a not-so-common beef cut, remarkably tender and marvelously cooked. Score: 15/20 Cakes Fresh baked desserts and pastries are featured. All desserts, but a few, are homemade; the others come from a bakery. Apple cheesecake. $6 Chocolate ganache cake. $6 Both desserts were delicious. The chocolate ganache was really decadent. A great finish! Score: 16.5/20 Service Our server, Alicia, was impeccable. Very prepared on the menu and the specials, attentive and witty. The owner, whom I previously met once, was also very amiable: he greeted us when we arrived, he stopped by our table inquiring about the meal and exchanged a few words when we left. Price The bill totaled to $61, before taxes. Absolutely reasonable. Pros Very relaxing atmosphere. Great food and desserts. Excellent service. Reasonable prices. Live music. Cons Very small wine selection. The kitchen is not completely isolated from the dining area and clothes can catch slight cooking odors.

We aren't censoring you; we are redacting your surface level beliefs in order to better express what the best in you yearns for.

Muddle a few sprigs (4ish)of very fresh mint with 1 tsp (or to taste) of bar sugar and 3 oz. of your favorite bourbon in a tumbler or julep cup. Fill with crushed or shaved ice. Some heathens splash a little water in to help release bourbon flavor. Drink. —RxScabin 2007-05-05 21:10:33 RedDress, your registration e-mail address doesn't work.
