Healthier Food Choices in Hempstead

The Village of Hempstead is home one of the most diverse communities in Long Island. So naturally, the dining options in the village reflect that diversity as there is a wide variety of  places to eat. Choose from: American, Asian, Caribbean, Italian, and Latin cuisine. You can enjoy a local dish or another from around the world - without ever leaving Hempstead. Now there are two new faces that have joined the list of eateries.

Introducing Pavon Deli Restaurant

Pavon Deli Restaurant is a recent addition to the streetscape across from Old Navy, and Stop & Shop shopping center; this intimate eatery features some savory cuisine celebrating the fine staples of Central America and most meals are under ten dollars.

Even though you might be away from the dining room, "it's an experience like home," says Chef Oscar Moreno. Rosa McDermoth, co-owner says, "Everything is fresh and nothing is ever frozen. Our mission is to keep up the same service from start to finish; chatting with customers and making them feel welcome; and, if they want to eat something they don't see, or something from the home country, we'll go make it in the kitchen."

A visit to Pavon Deli Restaurant will quench your taste buds for tortillas, pupusas, tamales and curtido; also an array of grilled fish and chicken, peppered beef, stewed sausage and vegetables to choose from the menu. Did I mention the rice and beans are seasoned with love and tons of salads to choose to keep the calories away?

Pavon Deli Restaurant is family-owned, clean and spacious enough to seat a corporate group. Make a commitment to support local business and visit Pavon Deli Restaurant, 131 Fulton Avenue 516-414-0925.





Loli's Soul Food Serves Up Food For The Soul

Loli's Soul Food & Catering is the hottest spot in town paying homage to traditional Southern cuisine while tantalizing one's taste buds with its affordable menu peppered with momma's down-home recipes.

The food is absolutely tasty with a low sodium credo offering 'melt-in-your-mouth' barbecue chicken; tender oxtails cooked to perfection; colorful vegetarian plates, and, superb desserts from the smooth banana pudding to the super moist red velvet cake.

Loli's is no ordinary soul food restaurant. "We take it back to the basics, I think we lost that; for instance, the greens take six and a half hours to prepare, we clean them three times, cut them down and stew them slow to perfection," says Chef Anthony Cruz.

Leron Parker, co-owner, says, "Food is supposed to be savored and enjoyed since it's made with love. We want our customers to return and don't want to raise their blood pressure so everything is prepared fresh daily." Loli's Soul Food is the perfect ambiance for gatherings-from a family dinner to a corporate event. Give yourself a day off from cooking and visit Loli's Soul Food, 143 N. Franklin Avenue, 516-280-7485.
