Matthew Music in Roosevelt Field - maybe it is still there hidden somewhere.
Also Record Stop (?) on Hillside Ave. in NHP - bought my first album there, "Don't Shoot Me I'm Only the Piano Player".

Big Barry's was the first place to have those huge salads that are so popular now. And, this was in the mid-seventies when everyone else served those boring iceberg lettuce things.

There's a Ground Round on stewart ave in garden city (same shopping center as Pizza Supreme, which used to be in the mall for those that like their square pizza)
Flea Markets and cheap johns..drive in movies.. classic.. they should still be around (especially the flea markets like the one that used to be at roosevelt raceway and even bellmont) and the drive in at westbury, which is now a multiplex and BJs

I frequented the one in lake grove and occasionally the one in Rock Point in the 80's.The salads were huge and easily were good for 2 people.
