NY Best Wing Fest. And of course,
you can’t go wrong with a pint and
their ever-popular shepherd’s pie.
Or, if your drinking/eating desires
run south of the border, stop by
Cabo (3A N. Park Avenue, 516-
255-0065, caborvc.net), where
the frozen drinks flow and the
guacamole is prepared tableside.
Their massive Coronita Margaritas
are an undertaking worthy of the
most seasoned imbibers, and all the
better to compliment the first-rate
nachos, tacos and fajitas. You might
run into a bachelorette party or
two, but who’s complaining? The
more, the merrier.
The options don’t end there, either. A
favorite among the after-work crowd
is Lindsay’s (59 N Park Ave., 516-442-
3344), popular for its classy, upscale
ambience, friendly bartenders and
fine selection of reasonably priced
single-malt scotch. Or for a more
laidback, hometown feel, give North
Village Tavern (40 N Village Ave.,
516-766-0181) a whirl, where the food
and drinks are equally appreciated
and the large-screen TVs are either
showing sports or music videos synched
with the jukebox.
The restored 1882 Phillips House holds one of New York’s finest small museums.
The best part is, if one spot isn’t your
special happy place, there are several
more in the immediate area you can
stumble over to and try. It may be just
3.4 square miles in size, but Rockville
Centre truly does have it all.
