Bistecca by IL MULINO: Review

                                          :

     If you are looking for a fantastic gourmet meal during your stay at Mt. Airy Lodge look no further than Bistecca by IL MULINO. Located right off the casino floor- you will find no better steak in NYC or the North Shore. A true steakhouse you have your classic cuts, from skirt steak to a porterhouse they are all aged and served with delicious sauces- like béarnaise, or a green peppercorn cognac sauce (yum!).
    If steak isn't your thing they have wonderful pasta dishes fresh clams, lobster and a lineup of specials offered every night. We tried the Burrata appetizer which is a seemingly a ball of mozzarella but it is so much more. This is a fresh mozzarella ball that they fill with cheese curd and warm cream so when it sets it makes a creamy center, one bite of this you are instantly transported to heaven. Seriously guys if you have a chance to try it do it- do not think twice just do it.

Hurricane Harbor Review

   

      Boy is it starting to heat up here in the tri-state area.  The sun is shining and we need ways to start to cool off!  Hurricane Harbor is the answer my friends.  Six Flags is the place to be for thrilling rides and family fun.  Add in cooling off and that is exactly what Hurricane Harbor is!
     We were invited to Hurricane Harbor for a Blog-BQ in honor of the new Cabana Cove Bar & Grill's grand opening!  This new eatery is right by the wave pool and cabana area of the park. Not only does it have beer and wine (which mom and dad are sure to enjoy) but they have a wide variety of hearty and even healthy options for the family!  Huge Caesar salads with jerk chicken, steak
sandwiches, and a GIGANTIC hot dog are among available items, and boy are they good!  Along with those lunch and dinner items there are also snacks like humus and pretzels, and some huge, soft cookies!

     Now let's talk about the park. This is a perfect sized water park, not too big and not too small. With ten rides, including the wave pool, lazy river and one huge kid area called Discovery Bay, you can easily walk through the park and hit every ride with ease.  Every single ride is supported by on-point life guards that were in the midst of their training during our visit.  You and your family can relax because they have you covered, and the only danger you will be in is thrills and chills when you slide down one of the monster slides!
