We were in Plainview and wanted to try out Cravings Market. When we arrived, the place was entirely empty. We had to wonder if they were closed or open. Not too reassuring. But since we were already there, we decided to try it. We ordered a chicken pesto sandwich and chicken salad wrap. Pretty basic […]
I saw a posting on Reddit about a woman who went to Subway and Subway added a mandatory tip of 20% to the bill. We went to Subway where my husband and I each ordered a pretzel and my two nieces each ordered a footlong sub sandwich. I am the only one who got a […]
After dodging a bullet at another lunch spot nearby, we decided to stop by Buckram Stables in Locust Valley to have lunch this past weekend.

I ordered the Nonna Rosa Panini which is […]

For those of you who have never experienced a meal at Biscuits and Barbeque, they serve up southern barbeque and creole food.
