Re: Found Brit food in Long Island / NY
Just dragging this thread up and I'm happy to say I return to LI this weekend!
I lived there for three years in a rental apartment when I first moved to the US. Then we bought a condo in NJ and now we're buying a house on LI. yay!
I cannot wait to get back to LI, I MUCH prefer it to NJ.
Somehow we never warmed to NJ and it never really felt like home.
We're moving this weekend and hope to close on our sale and purchase in the next two weeks.
I used to go to Fairway from time to time too - can't wait to go back!

Yep still there.. it's pretty cool. We're not gonna stay there long term though, we're saving a rather large deposit to go either out on the island (Manorville>Baiting Hollow) or would even consider CT if I can hop on a train to the city.
We don't wanna see any neighbours and need more trees
Sounds like you're gonna be local?

I think there is some rule about all houses must be at least on one acre plots - which is nice.
Not entirely sure about the schoold though - I think there ok. Not sure if that would be a concern for you though.
We're moving to Huntington. Bit strange as the house in in Huntington though - its on the edge of so many. Dix Hills is across the street. V. near to East Northport, South Huntington, Greenlawn etc.. I know the schools here are excellent, which eventually will be great. We have a 7 month old little girl.

We've really gotta go and spend some time looking around and find a location that suits us.. butt hat's the area anyway.. and yeh we want an acre or two too
Schools aren't a concern for us *yet* so we're pretty much free to go anywhere
Huntington is pretty cool, some nice places there. Dix hills = very lardy da
Congrats on your daughter!
