With the summer starting, we decided to go to Bar Frites in Greenvale. They have both indoor and outdoor seating. I always love the outdoor seating. It changes the whole eating dynamic Tonight, unfortunately, we were unable to get a table outside. It was a little warm inside. We started the meal with salmon burgers, […]
Since the weather has warmed up, we headed out to Westhampton Beach and had dinner at Salt & Loft Very pretty place in the village. We chose to sit outside and it was the perfect setting for dinner. We saw a bunch of people cruising the strip (both in cars and on food) especially if […]
Our next entrant in the best bagel challenge is Bagels & Bialys in Albertson. This unassuming store front came as a big surprise. I have passed it thousands of times and would continue to do so. But a friend of mine suggested that I include Bagels & Bialys so off I went. The interior was […]

On a suggestion, I went to My Three Sons Bagels in Garden City. It looked any other non descript bagel shop. First positive sign was the line for people. I am always encouraged by that. I ordered a plain bagel and some whitefish salad. If I was judging based upon the whitefish salad, this bagel […]
While we were out east in Riverhead, we had lunch at the Farm Country Kitchen. The entrance is so unassuming that we missed it when we drove there even with the help of Waze. Once you do enter the restaurant, the move is to sit outside overlooking the Peconic River because the view is spectacular. […]
After eating at Takumi Taco, I wanted to see if there were any other taco destinations that could compete. This brought me to Right Coast Taqueria on Jericho Turnpike in Mineola. The interior is clean and efficient. You can order either at the kiosk or with the cashier. I do like those options They had […]
We were out at the wineries and stopped by the Magic Fountain in Mattituck for some dessert. We were surprised that there was a line at 6:00 pm but from conversations with other folks, they said there is always a line. A good sign. I was glad that they had the line so I could […]
