  1. I think they are ALL Korean owned. I’ve never seen anything other. The kids call the Korean owner in the one down the street from me “Chinaman.”

  2. Do you think if I set the alarm for 5 a.m. & posed my question then that Mr. B. would get around to posting it by 8 or 9 so Master Plvmber & others would see it?

  3. Arkady, the Fan, churchhill, and carytown have lots of northern transplants who bid up the prices cause it looked so cheap. Jackson Ward (not as premium; proxy of stuy heights here) houses can be had for around 250k

  4. M4l,I will try to experiment with those guys.

    Bxgrl, he actually DID clean that before. And it came out ok.

    So rob, you just wear wash&wear fabrics?

  5. In Brooklyn Heights on Henry, right off Clark, there is a Korean couple that own a drycleaner. (In fact there were a couple of Korean owned drycleaners around there, but they were my favorite).

    I had a great relationship with the lady. Her husband is a retired pilot of Korean Airlines (total maniacs but that is another story). I used to show her where I spilled the coffee with milk and sat on gum, and had ink stains etc. Lovely. And she carefully marked them all. She would add a buttom or sew up a hanging hem without telling her about it. She is also a great seamstress. I would go to her, despite my new place in Fort Greene, UNTIL this new guy and she would ask me WHAT HAPPENED whenever I would stop by for something occassional. Anyway, I could be going back to her.
