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 […]

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. […]
I was driving on the service road and saw this line in the parking lot of the Fabric Mill. I stopped by and saw Ralphie Crossroads Cafe, a food truck, at the end of the parking lot. I stopped by to try a hot dog. Once I was there, I was thrown for a loss […]

I wanted to follow up from my hot dog visit to Ben’s Deli with other sandwiches. Instead of our traditional orders of pastrami and turkey, we went with a chicken Caesar wrap and a grilled chicken panini. As Ben’s is kosher, no dairy or cheese in either of our sandwiches. So we did not know […]
I would like to start a school in which they teach waiters and other support staff how to serve the customers. There is a real need for people to learn the appropriate serving steps. The reason I am looking into this is because at the last two restaurants that I went to the waiters started […]

The layout is a pretty traditional one with the deli counter running the length of the store broken down by items to order like salads, panini’s and sandwiches. The nice bonus was the tables outside. I tend to be a […]
Cooperhill — A Modern American Bistro and Quite a Find We headed over to Copperhill in Williston Park. It is a quirky American bistro that prides itself on being located in a 125 year old farmhouse. The only thing that I do not get is why is it important to highlight that the restaurant is […]
