I decided to try the Pantano’s Neighborhood Eatery in Plainview thinking that it was an offshoot of Pantano’s Gourmet. I learned that there is indeed a relationship between these two Pantano’s but they are run separately. I did conclude that was a real difference between the two. I ordered the Nonna Rosa Panini which is […]

Another legacy restaurant will bite the dust with it getting replaced by who knows what. The […]
My sister in law absolutely loved the Jolly Fisherman’s Banana Cream Pie. In fact, every holiday she had at her house, we were asked or more clearly demanded that we bring these banana cream pies. Unfortunately, the Jolly Fisherman closed last year leaving a gap in the food scene of Long Island. More troubling for […]
Since 1975, Bagel Boss Hicksville has been leading the charge with great bagels. The best part of this Bagel Boss is that they are open 24 hours a day. You do not find that in Florida! Even though Bagel Boss has a great reputation and is one of my favorites, we had to follow the […]
