I have used Yelp for years to find and choose restaurants. They curate multiple reviews (in excess of 287 million) from various sources to generate over 178 million unique visitors a month. But the question is are the reviews reliable? Recently, I have come to believe that Yelp is no longer a good sources for […]
I was in NYC and wanted to grab a bagel in midtown so I pulled up Yelp and found Liberty Bagels and it had 4.5 review. How could I go wrong with them. New York City and bagels are inseparable where bagels from a food truck can be good! The Liberty Bagels Experience: A Disappointing […]

We were on the North Fork and decided to go to the Cooperage Inn Restaurant for dinner. From our research, the Cooperage Inn is a beloved fixture on the North Fork dining scene, known for its charming country ambiance and generous portions of American comfort food. I like generous portions and comfort food. So off […]
We were looking for a good breakfast place near Riverhead and found the Main Road Biscuit Co in Jamesport. With biscuit in its name, what could go wrong. We already loved the Little Gull Café for their biscuits so I am on biscuit kick. Word of warning, the Little Gull Café often runs out of […]
We returned to Rialto Restaurant in Carle Place. Rialto has a warm and inviting atmosphere. It is throwback to how Italian Restaurants used to be. With all the recent closures of restaurants, I am glad that Rialto remains. You feel the charm and vibe as soon as you walk in. The menu at Rialto features […]
We ate at Greek Xpress in Great Neck. Greek Xpress is a blend between a fast food and a full-service restaurant. It is a clean friendly environment. You receive the wait staff service that you would expect in a traditional restaurant. Instead of ordering at the counter (as you would typically do in a fast-food […]
Our friends have proposed by the Dirty Taco + Tequila in Port Washington which is located in Manhasset Bay Marina. You will find it nestled in the corner at the end of street that has industrial and residential buildings. Interesting enough it is right next door to Serra Provisions, our new favorite Italian Grocer Store. […]
We headed to Fauna in Westhampton Beach with a party of 10 people. Normally you do not get the best experience with such a large party and it is hard to judge a restaurant with this size party. But it is what it is. A few quick things about Fauna, it is one of the […]
With the recent slew of restaurant closings, it started to make me think about my childhood memories. When we were growing up we did not take an unlimited number of photos documenting our lives so sometime all we have is our memories (as warped as they can become). While growing up, we would enjoy La […]
