I was at the Americana looking to buy a gift for my wife and I stopped by Young Farm Cafe in Hirshleifers for an Iced Tea. While there, I also ordered a chocolate chip cookie. While the Iced Tea was great, the star of the show was their chocolate chip cookie. It was soft, chewy […]
We have been to the other Shed locations but wanted to try the newest one in Westbury. First off, it is the nicest looking one and the largest by far. The Shed did it right. Of course, there was a wait. Guaranteed. We went for dinner and we were informed that there would be a […]

The eternal question that we have is what is a sandwich and where is the best one? I can not answer the location of the best sandwich but I am going to address what is a sandwich. Merriam Webster defines a sandwich as follows: (i) two or more slices of bread or a split roll […]
I have an unusual question. We are hosting a brunch on Sunday and I am not a coffee drinker. With that said, should I get coffee for my guests from Starbucks or Dunkin Donuts (other suggestions are welcome)?
