They said they will try to be on Austin Street on weekends through the summer. They closed up shop on Austin Street a couple of years ago — next to where Rove restaurant is today — and moved to Metropolitan Ave.

A Couple of Ways to Cool Off
With it actually feeling like a genuine New York City summer for a change, we turn our attention to some icy treats. Luckily, Metropolitan Ave. has a couple.
With the Carvel down there having opened, then closed, then, who the hell knows? ... I, like plenty of other car-less Notherners who don't frequent Metropolitan Area very often, was left confused about the status of one of my favorite childhood haunts. So, for all of you like me who were wondering whether there still is a Carvel in Forest Hills or not, I can happily report there is indeed—and just a short walk down to Metropolitan Ave.
And remember our place to get ices that used to be next to the old Bonfire Grill—Uncle Louie G? Well, that's now located down there as well, sharing a location with Twist It Top It frozen yogurt.

Couple of Closings...
Surprised that more people in Forest Hills don't miss the ices shop Uncle Louie G which used to open every summer on Austin St. right next to the Bonfire Grill. Yea, it was a little run down, but the ices and ice cream weren't bad. Anyway, that place looks completely closed, with construction going on inside it.
And then, I come back on vacation and see that the Lady Love Boutique at the corner of 72nd Ave. and Austin St. has closed. Surprised no one had contacted me about since it was one of the more eccentric-looking shops on Austin St. and in business for quite a few years.
