Queens-Based Cookie Chain Opens Forest Hills Location

A Queens-based cookie chain is opening a location in Forest Hills next week.

Chip City, which was founded in Astoria, is opening a store at 72-34 Austin St. The grand opening will be on Friday, Jan 14 at 11 a.m. and the first 100 customers will receive a free cookie.

The cookie chain is best known for its “ooey gooey,” thick cookies and zany flavors. Some fan favorites include chocolate chip, funfetti, chocolate peanut butter, blueberry cheesecake, peanut butter & jelly, s’mores and lemon berry.

The company, originally known as Chip, has about 40 cookie recipes and offers a menu of four flavors that rotate daily in each store. The cookies are baked in-shop with premade batter mixed at Chip City’s commercial kitchen.

The new Forest Hills bakery will be the fifth Chip City in Queens and its tenth citywide.

The company has expanded significantly since it opened its first store in Astoria at 30-06 34th St. in July 2017. A year later, it opened its second shop in the Ditmars section of Astoria. It then opened one in Long Island City in 2019 and another in Sunnyside in 2020.

It has also opened three stores in Manhattan and two in Brooklyn since its founding, with several more on the way.

The company will debut its new Orville Redenbacher’s Chocolate Popcorn Crunch cookie at its Forest Hills shop as part of the grand opening.

The movie-theater nostalgic cookie will only be available on Jan. 14 at the Forest Hills location. Chip City will then offer it across all 10 of its locations starting Jan. 19 in honor of National Popcorn Day.

The Forest Hills store will be open seven days a week from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.

The public is also able to buy Chip City cookies online. The company ships them locally and to more than 20 states.

Oh damn. I got a box of these when the truck was on Continental. Super good. FYI – read the instructions. These are ‘pretty good cookies’ until you microwave them for a bit. Then they change to PHENOMENAL.

Brunch, or at least breakfast, is a fairly common offering across New York City restaurants. And these morning meals often follow basic rules and menus with fairly similar offerings such as eggs, traditional omelets and maybe a Mimosa. When it comes to good food and, in particular, brunches that depart from the usual, Kantu really can do.

Rego Park sex offender pleads guilty to charges of sexually exploiting young girls on Long Island: Feds

A convicted sex offender from Rego Park pleaded guilty to sexual exploitation of a child and admitted to soliciting and receiving sexually explicit images and videos from four young girls during a plea hearing in the federal courthouse in Central Islip on Friday. Anthony Pangallo, 41, faces a mandatory minimum sentence of 25 years’ imprisonment and up to 50 years in prison.

According to court filings and statements during the plea proceeding, Pangallo was initially arrested on May 20, 2021, at his Rego Park residence, on state charges filed in Westport, Connecticut. Those charges, which remain pending, involved a 15-year-old victim whom Pangallo met online and manipulated into sending him sexually explicit images of herself.
