The Blue Parrot in East Hampton

A favorite of the east end, The Blue Parrot is back in the game and now open.  Mexican infused cuisine, great drinks and the occasional Bon Jovi impromptu acoustic concert all converge at this laid back, low-key hot spot known around town as one of the best.  Enjoy! 631-329-2583

White Post Farms in Melville

We just got back from a fun filled day at White Post Farms in Melville.  A great place to go with the family (young and old!) you'll be treated to a variety of animals that you can feed, a great gourmet shop and a few rides for the younger crowd.  Beware, this is a cash only establishment once you get to the petting zoo portion of the farm, so bring some extra cash to survive while you're in the jungle.  To hit up our flickr set of our trip, click here. 631-351-9373

Coming Soon: Red Mango Frozen Yogurt in Oceanside

We just got a tip that Red Mango, our favorite frozen yogurt shop is adding to its Long Island locations with a new location in the Sands shopping center in Oceanside.  This is great news for us as we live on the South Shore and won't need to travel to Plainview any longer for our fix. Keep and eye out for it to open very soon.

Upcoming Event: Middle Neck Rd. Promenade in Great Neck (June 11th, 2009)

On Thursday, June 11th from 6:30pm - 10:30pm you'll be able to enjoy outdoor cafe style dining, Prix-fixe dinners, live music and more as Middle Neck Rd. in Great Neck turns into a lively scene.  For one night only step outside and enjoy the warm summer air with some of the best eats on the North Shore.

Notable Opening: Brasserie Persil in Oceanside

Brassseriepersil I must have heard about Brasserie Persil from three separate groups of people this week.  For a small restaurant located in Oceanside that hasn't been open for that long, this is quite a lot of favorable buzz.  French cuisine isn't an overdone scene on Long Island and we're looking forward to trying it out at our next opportunity.  Until then, if you hear of any new restaurants that are creating buzz around your neck of the woods, shoot us a note! 516-992-1742
