We threw a party for a bunch of friends and we wanted the best caterer. We hired Nader Gebrin, formerly of Bravo Nader. Nader refers to service as exquisite food from extraordinaire talent. I have to agree that this is an apt description because he delivered on an extra special evening and dinner. When you […]

We had a lovely meal at Cena 081 in Westbury, right by the LIRR Train Station. We were greeted by Tom Brady, the manager. Unfortunately for us, it was not THE Tom Brady, retired Football GOAT. I was confused that with the name Cena 081 when their address is 103 Post Avenue. My good friend, […]

Ristorante Venere is in a non descript strip mall where parking is easy which won kudos, especially from my wife, on this rainy night. From the first moment we stepped in, we had the most amazing experience. My overall take […]

I was on Facebook and I saw this Page where Restaurant Workers complain about things that bother them. One rant extremely annoyed me and it had to do with customers asking what is good here? Why does this annoy me? First off, I ask this question all the time so they are referring to me. […]

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, […]
