We went to the Lucharitos in Mineola for dinner. It is located in the Morgan Parc building on 2nd Street. As an aside, that is a really nice-looking apartment building. The restaurant had nice inside and outside seating. We chose the outside area When the weather is nice, it is a pleasure eating and drinking […]
From an interesting article on Reddit in which a table at a bar did not tip a waitress when she refused to bring one of their party a soda. This started to make me think on what to do about a tip when service is bad. I have friends who come out all across the […]
We returned to the Bungalow East Restaurant in Long Beach. We loved the wraps last time so it was worth a return visit. We did like the casual environment with the outdoor seating. The restaurant’s menu is large, with a wide variety of wraps and paninis. I wish we were there for breakfast since the […]
We wanted to try Jade Eatery and Lounge in Port Washington. This location is the latest in the Jade Eatery empire. It has been the rotating set of restaurants over the past few years. I was a little confused with why they called it an eatery and lounge. Most new restaurants would use kitchen and […]
I was looking for a good burger and a friend suggested the Shed in Westbury. I was of two minds because I think of the Shed as primary a breakfast/brunch place but I did have a great blackened fish sandwich there once. Being the easy-going guy that I am, off we went to the Shed. […]

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 […]
