"Bodega love"... which states use the term "bodega"? I certainly never heard it until I moved to NYC from CA.
  1:16pm
JakeGould:

@LizBerg: I would say all of the major cities and slacker towns use “bodega.” I only heard “bodega” in NYC in the 1980s when the old corner newsstands and groceries became… Bodegas.

Ken From Hyde Park:

I don't recall any bodegas here in Dutchess County. I'll look out for them, though, and report back with the coordinates.

im kinda sad, the, by far, best pizza place in my neighborhood recently closed. why can't all pizza places make great pizza? i mean, how complicated is it?

In the 80's in Syracuse, NY -a college town-I NEVER heard the word Bodega to refer to a small store....In the 90's in NYC on the LES there were "Korean Stores" and there were Bodegas. I do not think Bodega is that prevalent in the USA....unless there is an actual, no kidding Bodega present.

"bodega" is ubiquitous in new york city but the rest of new york (long island and north of the bronx) calls them convenience stores.

@steve: Way back in the day—like 1970s and 1980s—pretty much ever NYC pizza place was great. Even in my dumpy childhood neighborhood I had the choice of (3) pizza places in 1987 that were all great.
Avatar 2:02pm
steve:

jake, any idea what the heck happened? this is a mystery that needs to be solved.
  2:11pm
JakeGould:

@steve: Neighborhoods change and tastes change. I grew up in Brighton Beach as it was transitioning from being “Lower East Side by the Sea” to the Russian enclave it is now. Gone are the knishes as well.

The deal is back when rents were less and health department laws were less restrictive, anyone could open up a single storefront to make and sell food. So you had a lot of better choices fighting based on quality on the low end of things. Now you can’t just open one store to survive. Notice how many pizza places tare mini-chains now. It’s a quantity business at this point. And then things like the 99 cent slice places pop up and they are like Starbucks and kill the market even more.

So now if you want a decent slice it’s not as easy to get. But if you want a fancy full pie from a brick oven those places are more common.

NYC is just not for small business owners anymore. I mean the pizza place around the corner from me where I grew up had chickens in their backyard that laid the eggs for some of the stuff they served. Non trendy 1970s NYC. You could not get away with that nowadays. Let alone one single store that lasted for decades like that.

@steve: Which is all to say… The hope for the future is food trucks. Just like in “Blade Runner.”

NYC's former state of semi-lawlessness (and more affordable rents) bred many amazing small businesses and quasi-legal art and music spaces, good points, Jake.

Love the techno "Robot dance party"!!! Thank you Liz!
  2:23pm
JakeGould:

@LizBerg: I don’t know if I would say lawlessness was the deal, but I get the idea. It’s also like Chinese food place. In NYC they are all practically those take out hole in the wall places that serve the same junk. Not like the old days when they were all like real restaurants.
Avatar 2:24pm
steve:

great points Jake... the place that closed in my neighborhood (Original Carmine's) had been there with the same owner working there every day (Carmine, an old italian guy) since the 80s. they got shut down by the health dept and he decided to retire rather than deal with it.
  2:27pm
JakeGould:

@steve: Yup. Typical pattern. Also I don’t take those DoH notices of “cleanliness” seriously anymore since noticing a pattern: Businesses that have been doing fine with no issues for years suddenly became “vermin infested” when real estate development happens. I’m convinced it’s that and suddenly a local business owner falling out of favor with the local community board then then… Pushed out for newer retail. Corrupt money grubbing and power plays.
