J U L Y OUT & ABOUT
BY JILL DAVIS
Out & About is back! Well,
not exactly the way it was,
but then again, what is?
Nevertheless, with outdoor
dining okayed in NYC and
entrepreneurs becoming more
creative, there are some fun
things to do this summer as
we tiptoe back to social activities.
So get out there and have
some fun!
DINING OUT
It’s been quite a while since
the words “dining” and “out”
have been able to be used
in the same sentence, but in
June, New York City restaurants
were finally able to welcome
diners for outdoor dining.
Although indoor dining
remains off-limits in NYC,
patrons can now enjoy a meal
“al fresco” during these warm
summer months.
In the area, Bell Boulevard
has always offered a wide
variety of restaurants and the
street is always jammed. To
help with the crowds who are
popping to get out for a nice
dinner, the Bayside Village
Improvement District helped
organize the expansion of
street space to accommodate
restaurants and their diners.
That means there’s good
news and bad news: The good
news is that Bell Boulevard
between 39th and 41st
Avenues and 41st Avenue
between Bell Boulevard and
214th Place will be fully
closed to vehicles on Friday
Le Havre Website Address and Email Addresses
12 LEHAVRE COURIER | JULY 2020 | WWW.QNS.COM
evenings, from 5 to 11 p.m.,
Saturdays from 6 p.m. to 11
p.m., as well as Sundays from
noon to 10 p.m. Restaurants
in the immediate area offering
outdoor dining include
Bourbon Street, Donovan’s,
One Station Plaza, Papazzio,
Press 195 and Uncle Jack’s.
The bad news is that parking,
which is already a challenge
on Bell during peak times,
will be even more daunting--
so plan ahead for a nice long
walk back to your car to work
off your delicious meal. (At
press time, the expanded seating
will continue until Labor
Day, Monday, September 7.)
Other restaurants offering
outdoor dining in Bayside
that are a little bit out of the
core include Trattoria 35
(Bell Blvd. & 35 Ave.) and La
Veranda (208 St. & Northern
Blvd.). Even closer to home,
Vivo! on the Cross Island
Parkway by the Clearview
Golf Course and Jaegerhaus
on 149th Street have also
opened for outdoor dining.
It is recommended that you
call the establishment or check
the restaurant’s website for
specific hours of operation.
TRIBECA FILM FESTIVAL
Now through August 2
Bronx and Long Island
Tribecafilm.com
Robert DeNiro’s
annual festival is
going on the road
this summer and
two of the locations
are local: Orchard Beach in the
Bronx and Nickerson Beach (Lido
Beach) in Nassau County. The series
takes place each weekend through
August 2. Orchard Beach can fit 500
cars per screening, and Nickerson
can hold about 250. Orchard Beach
screenings are free, but Nickerson
Beach will set you back $26 per car.
Movies will be shown drive-in style
with IMAX on board to enhance the
image and sound quality for all Tribeca
Drive-In viewings, and IMAX has
collaborated with Tribeca Enterprises
to curate the program from its library
of films. The festival will present new,
classic and independent works from
various filmmakers, creators, and artists
onto the big screen.
Films being shown at Orchard Beach
will include the Dark Knight, Straight
Outta Compton and Wonder Woman.
Nickerson’s slate will include Back
to the Future, Jerry Maguire and Spy
Kids in its line-up. Check out the
Tribeca website for more details.
TILLES CENTER DRIVE-IN
CONCERTS
July 18 – August 29
Brookville, Long Island
Tillescenter.org
Tilles’s parking lot holds only about
100 cars, so getting tickets could be
tricky. Concertgoers are permitted to
bring a lawn chair and sit outside their
vehicle (masks are required). Since
there won’t be concession stands, this
will be a BYOS (bring your own
snacks) affair. Each show will be 90
minutes and are rain or shine.
Concerts will include the Bruce
Springsteen tribute band, The B Street
Band; the Swingtime Big Band; and
the Long Island Concert Orchestra.
Tickets start at $29 per car and must
be ordered in advance. More info can
be found on the Tilles website.
PARKING LOT SOCIAL
August 12-23, Brooklyn
Parkinglotsocial.com
“Engines Off, Party On!” is the
slogan. This US touring event mixes
music, comedy and movies and
includes special “Social Kids” entertainment.
When you get there, you’ll
find two 40-ft screens, a 52-ft-tall
rainbow-shooting fire hydrant and two
inflatable Parking Lot Social gorillas.
Local food vendors will be there to
bring food right to your vehicle. The
exact location in Brooklyn wasn’t
available at press time, but we were
able to find out that tickets are $30
per car. Find out more details on their
website as the start date gets closer.
