Totally off topic here, but just noticed you added a pic cazattack - your pretty cute!

Flushing does have a chinatown area too, but with the exception of a few places - I think she would have more selection in Chinatown.

I agree, save for the Anime Castle in Flushing.

Jolt cola? You must be from Rochester. Are looking for some Genny Cream Ale too?

PS: The nearest Wegmans is in Woodbridge, NJ

upstaterinbklyn, i'm from albany. we dont even have wegmans, BUT i have a large amount of friends in the syracuse, rochester and buffalo areas. i like rochester, though i dont like garbage plates. yuck. (pls say you know what im talking about!)
On of my closest friends went to RIT and said he could order jolt from campus public phones to be delivered to his dorm! i wish it were so here!

Yes - I know about the Garbage Plate, but my knowledge is strictly second-hand. I've never had one.

I'm from Buffalo, but as you might expect, very familiar with Rochester "culture".

For the Sunkist and Jolt, you might want to try Fairway market. They have a huge variety of brands. You could give them call to see if they have it:

Fairway Like No Other Market

My favorite place for cheap technology products and hard-to-find computer stuff is Datavision on 5th Ave. between 39th and 40th.

I went to Buffalo for a business trip before, just as I imagined it lol. Although the Buffalo Chop House was good and Duff's was ok - expected a little more. I heard the Anchor Bar was better, but never made it over there.

Datavision is hit or miss for me, sometimes their prices are good, and sometimes it's higher than everyone elsa. Plus, there sales people aren't that friendly.
