Growin up:corner store,store name, or a nick name for the store

Growing up in New York and speaking Spanish growing up we called it a bodega and all in my town were Hispanic owned

I never heard anyone call it a cornerstone

The bodega in my block use to be the spot, my ***** avil use to always allow old folks hang out and drink til mad late.

Every time i went in that store there was this old guy name cuba, the old fellow use to always tell kids to go to school and start preaching about mad extra **** while he was drunk lol.

All you heard in that bodega was salsa.

 

[mycoldyourdone]

[solecity]

Us dominicans call them Bodegas or Colmado.. I've heard some ricans call it tienda, where to us a tienda is a department store.

*INB4 everyone seeks ninjahood for all hispanic and NYC answers*

In the Bay, it's either Liquor or Corner Store. Or liquor store with a deli.

Never understood the infatuation with "chopped cheese" it's literally just burger meat .

It's a mix of the price point and its exclusivity to the city. Similar-sized sandwiches sell for $8-11, whereas a chopped cheese is about $5. Also something about the bodega seasoning/flat top grill that cooks egg sandwiches all day.

A chopped cheese is a necessary purchase after a night of drinking when I'm out in Brooklyn.

Good call on the flat top grill going all day long.

Where in BK do you usually go out? Don't gotta get specific if you don't wanna . Just curious the neighborhoods.
