The grand opening of Distrito T-Mobile was magnificent! There is going to be so much music, entertainment and fun in this complex! Are you wondering where to stay and where to eat?
I stayed at the Embassy Suites San Juan which is steps from the beach in Isla Verde. I love the made to order breakfast, the giant suite with two televisions and plenty of room to hula-hoop. The pool was beautiful day or night and it is less than two blocks to the beach. If you have forgotten anything or just want to get your hat, sunscreen and beach chair on arrival, there is a CVS less than a block from the property.
Do you want to be in the middle of all the action? Only have to walk a few steps back from Coca-Cola Music Hall, Caribbean Cinemas and all the restaurants of Distrito T-Mobile? Then you need Aloft San Juan. From the pool on the 3rd floor, you can watch the Toroverde Urban Park Zipline fly by and then go there for games, rock climbing and THE FLYING BULL!
Come with us for: drinks at La Central dinner at Barullo and see the next movie with lunch at La Burguesia!
We also toured:
Lupe Reyes (check out the fresh tortillas), see the rum barrel bathrooms at La Central, Sazon with the mechanical metal fish in the air and Arena Medalla where you can pour your own beer, play games including magnetic scrabble and, of course, KARAOKE!
What do you do after zip-lining? We ate an AMAZING lunch at La Burguesía in Distrito T-Mobile! I had “This ain’t your daddy’s cheeseburger!” and at our table we had nearly ever other choice including ALL the dessert milkshakes which are topped with a giant slice of cheesecake, chocolate cake or s’mores. Join Evian for our tour through the kitchen including where Pablo and Jorge grind the meat, and the team bakes the bread, cooks your burger, creates your shake and dresses your fries. YUM!
Since Hamas’ October 7 terrorist attack, many Jewish faculty at colleges and universities across the country have been describing their professional lives in language more commonly associated with trauma than academic disagreement.
If we want to produce Jews who carry Torah in their bones, we need institutions willing to demand that commitment, and not institutions that blame technology for their own unwillingness to insist on rigor.
Jason Zengerle, a contributing writer for The New York Times Magazine, and staff writer at the New Yorker wrote a new book about Carlson, “Hated By All The Right People: Tucker Carlson and The Unraveling of The Conservative Mind.”
