Hey man I been there plenty of times. My kids dig it I don't. I had a burger that I didn't finish and brought home for the dog.....he didn't like it either. Do you know what I'm saying
um...that's great.
Fact remains that a bunch of people getting excited for a new chain restaurant has nothing to do with LI's culinary choices or the overall "culture" of its residents.
It's interesting to visit other cd forums and observe how much happier and kindhearted those users are.

SIB,
I was just playing and see who the first one I'd hook with my sonic statement. People on the forum are so sensitive I type the same rubbish any other place they laugh or blow it off like adults should.
People complain about the Island all the time but if I say something they do a complete 180 and attack me and forget about the non-stop complaining and bashing they been doing for years.. It's quite funny to see.
Kind of like "do what I say not what I do " in a weird way like "don't type what I write unless your in my shoes"
P.S. What kind of dog wouldn't eat cooked ground beef

maybe you should grow up? Adults don't get their kicks by baiting people on internet forums. Again, your behavior says more about you than the responses you're getting.
For me it's all eastern Suffolk and manhattan, I have no use for the area west of William Floyd parkway and east of the east river. It's crowded, esthetically unpleasing, dirty, the people are generally miserable and aggressive. Adults excited about a 900 calorie hot dog from sonic, DISGUSTING!
It's almost impossible to find great food anywhere on this island, but yet in manhattan it's abundant.
I happen to agree with the OP, most of LI is barfworthy. And frankly the petty, juvenile topics started on this forum to bash other active users are a true telling of the mentality of LIers. It gives people a venue to say what they are really thinking. It's interesting to visit other cd forums and observe how much happier and kindhearted those users are.
Oh yeah...eastern suffolk is just wonderful..I agree whole heartedly..the beautiful hamlets of Mastic and Shirley and the wonderful cuisine that sprouts from that area is legendary.
I can see you are a true fine diner. You know that hot dogs are bad for you...and that alfalfa sprouts, locally grown of course, and tofu are just what everyone craves.

I love it...there will be plenty of more bashers to follow. It's early
New York City is a cosmopolitan and immigrant city...the majority of the people who live there are not originally from the NY metro area. The people who set the trends there..the "hipsters", are also usuailly not from this area.
People from LI are the opposite..the majority are people whose families have lived in the metro area for generations. We are the "townies". A lot of people here not only are stubborn in their ways, it seems they would PURPOSELY eat bad food just to **** off hipsters. It's kinda of a minor reflection of the redneck mentality that goes on between south and north.
"....I know I look like a moron and a racist driving around with a Confederate flag on my pickup, but dang it, if it pisses off some Yankee, it's worth it!!"
Of course I'm exaggerating but I'm not that far off from the knee jerk reactionary way I've seen people behave.
I've spent my entire life on LI. About half of my friends growing up here now are NYC hipsters, so I'm exposed to both sides. They and their hipster non LI friends are extremely nose in the air about all things LI. They act like LI is Kentucky or something. When I'm around them, I'm the person calling them pretentious d-bags.
That being said, I do think that LIers are way more closed minded than I can make sense of...why do we not have better variety and quality of food with all the money, population and proximity to NYC? Because too many people are content eating friggin Chicken Parmagana every weekend? I mean, red sauce Italian has to get boring to some of you after awhile. And what the hell is with Italian Americans calling sauce gravy?
A place like Crickets in Sayville I've heard people rave about as a good family place to eat..this place sucks. Have any of you eaten in restaurants on the West Coast? Every diner type place you go to has decent, fresh food made from scratch, and it's reasonably priced. Here, anything of quality seems to cost an arm and a leg. There is no in between. It isn't that way in many parts of the country.
And what the hell is with Italian Americans calling sauce gravy?
in general, when the sauce has meat in it it's referred to as gravy. Just a way to distinguish it from plain/marinara...
