As a frequent supporter (user? addict?) of Baker's Dozen, let's hope they find a home nearby.

The old ratty Motel 6 seems like an odd neighbor. That was surprisingly missing from the renderings :-)
If I can’t keep Grand Asia you don’t get to keep Baker’s Dozen.

Yeah I have fewer and fewer reasons to go to Cary. I’ll still go to HMart. Is that in Cary?
Is this sarcasm? I can’t tell with you sometimes. Lol

What? Anyway, I was wrong. HMart is in Charlotte. It takes me 3 hours to drive there every weekend from Brier Creek.

It doesn't matter. There is nothing in Cary anway.

/s <=== For you UserNamesake. That means sarcasm, humor, etc.

Ah youre really laying it on thick, Zits! Thanks for the clarification!



In all seriousness, are there any attractions in Cary that you frequent?

I’ve only attended a few festivals there (chili festival, the big festival which I forgot the name of that spans the area around the library, the festival in Bond Park and a few pop up events), otherwise I’m usually getting my vanilla elsewhere. *wink*


What say you?

I go to Grand Asia.
I go to H Mart.
I go to Himalayan Range Nepali restaurant.
I go to Lucky 32.
I go to Ruth Chris.

I have only been downtown a very few times. I remember limited parking. We went to Taipei 101 I think.

Well at least the majority of your list is non vanilla. Pleasantly surprised, Zits.

Hey UserNames. It would be better if the Asian market ever opens in the old Earth Fare location in Brier Creek (Raleigh). But they have supposedly been planning that for quite a while and it's still not open.

People that think Cary is Vanilla have blinders on. Honestly, I don't understand how this misconception continutes to prevail.

Sure, every chain that ever existed is in Cary (and Apex, Raleigh, Holly Springs, etc...), but there are so many ethnic shops, cool (non-HOA) neighborhoods, breweries, eateries, and various nooks and crannies. I love Cary for it's uniqueness, and really just ignore all the Vanilla, because Vanilla is everywhere.
