Dubliner cheddar silk over homemade potato chips with Unibroue La Fin Du Monde, then grill-blackened chicken strips over toasty-roasty garlic bread with Founders Brewing Company Porter. Then a nap. Then Un Chien Andalou. #powerful

Otto’s Sea Grill
(516) 378-9480, Freeport
Apocalyptic precipitation ruined the exterior clam bar experience and Nautical Mile afternoon. Freeport has enough blue liquid already, diabolical clouds!

77 bottles of handcrafted craft beer, crafted by the hands of craftsman. If that isn’t on an advertisement somewhere…

Sierra Nevada Glissade Golden Bock and a swell chit-chat with owner, Stephen Wirth, who plans to launch Crooked Ladder Brewery within the former Crystal Bar, now an unoccupied space adjoined to Digger’s, in October. And so it continues…

Our Mother’s Day din-din of pastitsio, an oven-baked pasta hodgepodge with cinnamon-pinched ground beef and bechamel, lacked yiayia’s Chios charm, but fortunately, lamb souvlaki with tzatziki and Long Ireland Beer Company Celtic Ale were available for cleanup crew.
