One of my favorite things about LIB Magazine are food reviews. It has become one of my passions. I love doing food reviews. It let’s me experience a new culture without going there. In other words it’s a vacation without jumping on JetBlue. One of my favorite food vacays has become a little Indian joint in Astoria, called “Seva”.  I know Chicken Tikka Masala is as Indian as Chef Boyardee is Italian. From what I understand Chicken Tikka Masala is more English than Indian- but who wants to split hairs? In fact in 2001 it was voted “the true British…

With a sound that combines everything from psychedelic rock to funk streamlined into a raucous yet melodically appealing full package, the Farmingville-based Chris Ruben Band is ready to deliver more music to the masses. With their debut EP “Fortune Favors the Bold” having come out in March, the band has been hard at work on their follow up, and just released their new single “Stomach Coil” as they rock The Lounge @ The Space at Westbury in New York. After 5 plus years of working solo, songwriter and musician Chris Ruben founded the first of many groups in late…

All photos via Google And with a simple ground ball to third the season was over. That’s all she wrote. Gleybar Torres bounced out 5- 3. The chase for 28 is still a chase. Next season the Chase turns 10 years old! 2009 NY Yankee World Series ring This season was a disappointing one. One hundred wins is usually a great season, unless a team in the division wins 108. In this case it leaves you 8 games back the division. As much hope as last season left us, this season leaves us disappointed.  I personally think the Yankees were a…

Break out your Lederhosen When we think German imports what comes to mind? Mercedes Benz, Audis, BMW and other luxury cars? Would it be the mechanical way they go about things?

Finley kicked off Oktoberfest this past weekend in Bayshore. Bring on Hofbräu, direct from Bavaria. I guess bring on Sam Adams too… seeing how that’s what Finley’s was pouring. Oktoberfest (traditionally celebrated in September) beers are different. Oktoberfest are usually lagers. So you…
