I generally don't break the $50-60 mark for any garments, especially a shirt! Perhaps I am cheap, but I really can't convince myself to buy the boutique high priced items on smith/court. Which is a shame, cause I love shopping, and I love this neighborhood - alas, two loves that don't seem to meet. I wish there was an affordable boutique alternative in the Brooklyn area? Anybody care to chime in on their best, cutest, most affordable finds? Oh wow that is expensive! I generally don’t break the $50-60 mark for any garments, especially a shirt!

There's also a mention that Tuk Tuk will be closing soon. Word on Chowhound is that Baluchi’s may be replaced with a French restaurant. There’s also a mention that Tuk Tuk will be closing soon.

I didn't dislike them exactly, but I thought they were overpriced (you had to pay extra for rice -- at an Indian place??) The place was always so cold inside too. And last but not least, and this is just a personal thing with me, but I can't stand copper goblets for drinking. Cold metal glasses - ack - it actually makes my teeth hurt to think about them.
