But yes, that must be the Rolex boutique (run by Longs). But why do you say the new place is an ALS boutique, or were you joking?? Edit: oh, i see, he posted in the ALS page
given their relatively smaller size. A VC boutique wouldnât have surprised me. And ShreveCL is an AD right there. If this is true, then I guess that changes. Should be interesting.
