Andy "give my dog some grillz" C.'s Profile

Places to Avoid Like the Plague

The "not so top" list. Various reasons, various genres of institutions. Not all of my one or two star reviews made this list, but these are the "cream of the crop" when it comes to being the pits.

1. Chicagoland Toys and Hobbies

Chicago, IL 60631
(773) 775-4848

Categories: Hobby Shops, Toy Stores

Neighbourhood: Norwood Park

10/25/2009

It proved a challenge for me to hold my tongue when I walked into Chicagoland Hobby. See, I started out flying an E-flite mCX helicopter that I purchased about a year ago from HobbyTown USA in Orland Park. Seeing as it was time to upgrade to…More »

Neighbourhood: Near North Side

Quality of the pens is in line with Century Pens or any other "local" shop in Chicago. Security of the storefront is good as well, requiring a "buzz in" during certain hours.

5. Sushi Jade

7421 Lundys Ln
Niagara Falls, ON L2H 1G8
Canada
(905) 371-3888

Category: Sushi Bars

4/5/2011 First to Review

Niagara Falls, ON L2E

Oh my.

Location: 4 out of 5
