All hail the Caesar salad; best ones in Westchester, Rockland

Fall is a time for soups, apple cider and pumpkin everything but for me, there's comfort in Caesar salad. Call it romaine romance: What's great about Caesars are that they're light enough to remind me of summer but substantial enough (especially when you add salmon or steak) to be a meal. There's also something comforting about the combination of crisp lettuce, creamy dressing and crouton crunchiness that leads to my Caesar state of mind. Whether you prefer yours with chicken breast and romaine lettuce, plumped with kale, or topped with anchovies (a divisive factor, I know), menus in Westchester and Rockland have an option with your name on it. What follows are a few of my favorites, keeping in mind I'm a no anchovies gal (though I'll get them mixed in.) More: 19 new restaurants open in Westchester Polpettina, Eastchester Sometimes, the original is hard to beat. Which is why the Caesar at Polpettina has my attention. While I wouldn’t call it entirely traditional — there’s nothing about this place that feels old-fashioned — it certainly embraces the philosophy of making every ingredient count. Here, chef/owner Michael Abruzese combines Parmesan, anchovy, lemon, Dijon, Worcestershire, olive oil, red wine vinegar and

Some Connecticut restaurants have been serving the same recipes since before your grandparents were born.

What makes this Westchester bakery the best for Thanksgiving pies

It's the sights, smells, tastes and sense of nostalgia that make Galloway's Bakery in Scarsdale special. This third-generation bakery, which dates to the late 1940s and is run by the founder's granddaughter, Shannon Galloway, is pretty much exactly as it's always been, which Galloway said is key to its success. (For the record, the website says 1956, but Galloway said she found evidence it was earlier.) "We're plain and simple," she said. "Everything is made by hand. And because we've never branched out, we've stuck to what we do best." That means pies — lots of them, from cherry to coconut to chocolate cream — alongside cakes, cookies, doughnuts, breads, buns and Danish rings. The bakery, which started as a luncheonette in Bronxville before segueing to a spot in Hartsdale, takes pride in keeping to its origins. Ads from The Bronxville Reporter dating to 1952, in fact, list the exact pies that are sold now, among them deep dish apple, chocolate cream and lemon meringue.
