the first reeeally good nectarines i found in NY
prices are incredible
the insanely long lines are insanely long and that part completely sucks
but they don't lose any stars for that
i don't even mind the working 3 hours a month part.
hauling boxes around and stocking gorgeous organic and/or minimally treated local-ish produce once a month is a nice change of pace.
when i joined the coop i realized that i don't actually live in brooklyn - i live in berkeley.
then i went across the street to the tea lounge and i knew for sure.

why am i charged random prices for regular 'ol coffee when it clearly states on the wall: all sizes $1.75
why would anyone buy a muffin here more than twice? why did i? denial? yes. plus the coffee over at at la bageltique tastes like something brewed at a sewage reclamation plant, so you do what you gotta sometimes.
political aside: i appreciate that all the coffee houses in park slope support the mentally disabled by giving them jobs

Tea Lounge

then i went back and i hated the tea lounge because there was no place to sit
then i loved it again because i had a really good salad and had a place to sit
then they changed the free wi-fi to some retarded ad supported super-slow retarded thing and i hated the tea lounge for logging me out of IRC every 6.5 minutes
then i went back again stood in line for too long when i was hung over and had some really good coffee and a massive fresh squeezed orange/carrot juice and a yummy muffin and saw the sea of macbooks and i got sentimental about all the macs and i loved it again even though there was no place to sit

yay for cheap drinks!
yay for barmaids who call everyone honey!
what's the deal with all the bras hanging behind the bar? not so sure i wanna be there when the answer can be demonstrated.
it was pretty quiet the one time i went here but i dug the atmosphere and we got to hog the pool table. watching the doorman (insert visual of large thuggish bald white man here) intently watch some merchant ivory film on the tv after football was over was worth the trip to the east village.
