If you are interested in joining, you must complete orientation and pay the $25 fee (non-refundable) and $100 equity investment (refundable upon giving them the finger and ending membership) BEFORE you are even allowed to set food into the co-op. There are no exceptions to this rule. Signing up is also dicey; you have to keep going to their website until there's an opening for orientation, which is rare. I sincerely wish someone would infiltrate this elite organization and destroy it from the inside. Kind of like the Night Manager, but in food-coop form. They'd be running so fast their Birkenstocks would fall off.

Think going deep into the smaller batch offerings of many local brands in particular like Barrier, Evil Twin, Other Half and Kelso, as well as national stars like Half Acre and Stillwater among others. Its gotten to the point that it often rivals the selection of the excellent Goldstar Beer Counter a block away, minus the growlers. As you can see, whats driving this high rating is chiefly the beer selection, it really might just be quietly one of the best in BK and I hesitate to blow up my own spot but I must give credit where it is due, and its very much due here. Beyond that the place is one of the more bougie "gourmet" delis that are found throughout the metro that generally represent a step or so up from the humble bodega, both in terms of quality/selections of offerings and in pricing. Staff is friendly and efficient and again the beer selection is AMAZING...

NYC is swarming with people and with our busy and chaotic lifestyles, we often don't think to say "hi" or get the small town feel by knowing your neighborhood vendors. Granted, Park Slope is unique in the sense that this is pretty much, Sesame Street- a family friendly neighborhood. Although, the intimacy of knowing who the merchants are is still lost. Whenever I call to make my order- they always know what I want and make suggestions based on my liking's (they actually pay attention :) ) So, next time you are there or if you choose to give this place a shot-- ask for Hector, because he is incredibly kind, sweet, and an overall awesome individual.

I had a special event and I wanted to get my make up done professionally. I was concerned because in the past, when having my make up done it was just "too much." Instead of looking great the makeup was overpowering and unnatural. I had an appointment with Jenny on the afternoon of the event. Jenny was a sweetheart. She was patient, really listened to what I liked and didn't like. I had shown her photos of my dress which was helpful. I was stressed when I came for my appointment and Jenny and the other beautician's went out of their way to make me feel relaxed and at ease. My make up looked spectacular! It wasn't overdone, it was absolutely lovely and glamorous. I plan to make another appointment with Jenny to do a make up tutorial. I know I won't be able to do my own make up as flawlessly as Jenny. Still, why not learn from the best. I also plan on scheduling a facial and purchasing beauty product products. Such a great experience. Thank you Jenny and Carrie Lindsey!
