I'll be in Portsmouth on a Fri. night in July. Any ideas for a liesurely meal. Not an all fish or sea food place please.

Maiko 11 in New City is very good for Japanese food. Ambiance and service, excellent.

I was there for lunch last week. The food was good but not spectacular. The desserts, a lemon tartlet and a caramel bomb, were excellent and beautifully plated. The service, however was less than stellar. The waiter took beverage orders and never checked back so my dinner partner never ordered the glass of wine he later wanted. Coffee was served, but a refill was never offered. The bussing was better than the waiting.

Fink had a back operation last week and is recovering slowly.

What about Bischoffs in Teaneck?

I finally ate a smaller dinner to leave room for dessert. Very good blueberry cobbler. Fink had me try the oreo cheescake(individual size.) I'm a cheesecake purist. Keep it plain. I guess if you really like oreos this one is for you.

Any recommendations for eating in Englewood area. A restaurant where the noise level allows conversation.

Had baby backs today. Meaty and tasty as usual. Note:The sour cream biscuits are good without the gravy also.

I needed desserts for a party. I ordered a cheese cake and a bluberry cobbler from Finks. They were great.
