Trader Joe's plans 2 new New York stores. See where they're going

Two new Trader Joe's stores are planned for New York, expanding the popular grocery chain's presence in the state. The California-based retailer announced plans this summer to open new locations in the Syracuse area and Yonkers as part of its latest nationwide expansion. The plans add to the company's growth in New York, which includes a Long Island store that opened earlier this year. The expansion comes as Trader Joe's continues to draw shoppers with its private-label products and competitively priced groceries. Where are the new Trader Joe's stores? According to Trader Joe's, the two planned stores will be located at: Camillus: 3515 W. Genesee St., in the Syracuse area.

Bill Murray spends Halloween at a Yonkers bar

It was a treat, not a trick at Rory Dolan's in Yonkers when actor/comedian Bill Murray showed up on Halloween. The McLean Avenue bar is continually festive — owner Rory Dolan hosts a party no matter what night Halloween falls on, but this being a Saturday, it was particularly celebratory. And all the more so when Murray came in with two friends, ate dinner (he had rib-eye and a nice bottle of wine), and later, helped pour Guinness from behind the bar. Food: It's Halloween season, here's where to eat in Sleepy Hollow, Tarrytown Dolan said he was friendly with customers, many of whom approached him to talk about their favorite movies of his. Dolan, meanwhile, discussed golf courses around the world with him, including prime spots in Ireland. Murray also told Dolan he wanted to check out his place because of its reputation as having great energy. Murray's sighting, which Dolan displayed on his restaurant's Instagram page, was the latest in a string of celebrity spottings this fall. J-Lo was seen at Coffee Unique in Bronxville getting coffee while New York Knicks Point Guard Jalen Brunson, a Scarsdale resident and Laughing Horse regular, was seen in Harrison.

This New York Bakery Still Makes Italian Pastries The Old-School Way, From Cannoli To Fresh Focaccia

Your cannoli should not be filled until you actually order it. That’s a pretty reasonable argument, and one Bronx bakery has been making it with ricotta cream for ages. Shells sitting around full of filling? You may want to give that another thought. The story behind the counter is...

Lynbrook Says Ciao to New Italian Café, Affogato

Atlantic Avenue recently welcomed a “sweet” addition to its already existing stores, Affogato Café. Located next to The Bowl, Affogato Café has been the talk of LHS ever since its opening in early September. Affogato Café is an authentic Italian café prioritizing fresh and simple ingredients in its delicious treats. This café makes for an exciting, new place students can go to during off periods. Rather than the usual bagel or slice of pizza from neighboring businesses, at Affogato, students can buy a fresh-baked pistachio croissant or a ham and cheese sandwich served on imported Italian focaccia, all for a reasonable price.

Owners Diane and John Durkin say they are overseeing the kitchen personally, working alongside new executive chef Ryan Macuska on a menu built around Dover sole, rabbit confit and chanterelle mushroom puffs.
