If my bearings are correct, Honest Jon's is a few doors away from Mountain Grill Cafe, namesake of one of Hawkwind's albums! I recall seeing it in 1984 while shopping (for records, naturally) at the Portobello Road flea market.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:13pm
Gary:

Hi Dean! Not sure if I saw the Mountain Grill Cafe, although it sounds familiar. Frankly, I was too excited to really notice anything other the CDs I'd picked up -- holy bejeebus, but that is an amazing record store.

RevRab, I was in Honest Jon's for at least 2 hours ... and it's smaller than my apartment

If it's as good as it used to be, L'Oblique in Montreal is a similar kind of store. More boutique than warehouse, but wow, an amazing selection.
Avatar Swag For Life Member 7:24pm

I'm going to have to make it back up to Montreal, I see

And Cheap Thrills, another good Montreal store, at least c.2000.

Was hoping for great Thai food in Brooklyn. Tried a place called Look (by Plant Love House) a few weeks ago. Not bad, not bad at all, but still not as good as Thai food in Queens.

You know, Ike, there used to be some good places on and near Church Avenue, my old neighborhood in Brooklyn
Avatar Swag For Life Member 9:43pm
Gary:

... and speaking of Thai
Avatar 🇰🇷 Swag For Life Member 9:46pm
Alex In Illinois:

There are lots of Thai places in the Chicago area. I think there were more, 20 years ago. Maybe they have just moved westward. Either that, or it is a case of the younger generation not wanting to be in the restaurant business, which happens with all types of family owned restaurants.

Since you live closer to Tornado Alley than most of us, I thought maybe you drove 100 miles West one day with a camcorder, and recorded them yourself.
