New furniture at NoCoJoCo!
A Joe’s Coffee tweet this morning invited us all to bask in the glow of the new designer furniture at its Northwest Corner location. The main attraction is the avant-garde (and oh-so-organic-looking) Vegetal chairs from Swiss design firm Vitra:

Stop whining, you go here: ‘Hahaharlem’ edition
This week’s SWYGH investigates the collective cold shoulder we have turned toward our neighbors to the north. And east. And southeast.

Some MoHi eateries killing your wallet and/or you
The city’s most recent round of health inspections yielded mixed results for local restaurants.
Some, like Havana “Who goes there to eat?“ Central, The Heights, Pisticci, and Wondee Siam V, had zero health code violations. Vareli, Tap-A-Keg, and Block Heads also fared well with near-perfect scores.
