“We were blessed. Although we sustained storm damage, our
immediate family and friends are all healthy and safe. We have been
working around the clock to get the restaurant ready for Thanksgiving so
we can help those who lost their homes and let them forget their
troubles for at least a little while,” said co-owner Anthony Gironta.
On
Thursday the doors will be open at noon to 4 p.m. and families will
begin to be seated immediately for a festive buffet dinner. With 275
seats prepped and ready to be filled Serata is hoping to serve well over
500 guests.
“No matter what was ever going on in our home a good
meal always brought our family together. Our customers are our family
and we want nothing more than for them to at least enjoy their
Thanksgiving as they rebuild their lives,” said co-owner Vincenzo Ferrara.
Serata South is located at 777 West Beech St.
Matthew
Sorrentino of MS*AS Restaurant Consulting, whose family has been
feeding Long Islander’s for years, formerly at the beloved chain of
family style restaurants, Matteo’s, and currently at 388 Restaurant &
Lounge in Roslyn and Chris & Tony’s Restaurant & Lounge in
Syosset stated, “It’s not every day that we can bring so many
people together from the food industry to help and provide holiday
meals for family’s who can use a lift right now. As a property owner in
Long Beach (Sorrentino owns the building in which Serata operates) I am
glad I can help and will joyfully be serving food myself all day to our
neighbors and friends.”

This is the first time I am hearing about those poor animals. I am curious to know if the City…Read More Manager and/or LBPD issued an evacuation order for the shelter animals? Was the evacuation order ignored? Either way, if this story is true and some pets did indeed drown is the City Administration investigating the matter or was the administration hoping citizens would never hear of this and sweep it under the rug and keep those Rescue Ink idiots in charge? Kudos to the brave volunteers. I wonder why their stories were never told?

CMOS, The surfers from out of town come here all year long and add to the economy 12 months a year,…Read More what additional benefit do those people pushing shopping carts full of kid's toys add? Last summer the surfers were give only 1 in 3 beaches and that was base on increased demand, and this year more surfers are expected so it makes sense that more beach be set aside for them, or some kids are going to get hurt and then the city will need to pay for that.
Castles Made of Sand May 17, 2013 at 09:30 am
Paul, after you give us numbers on the "driving" economics of surfers, please tell us how…Read More many surfers come the beach in the summer. Do you know? Or are you just guessing? Your argument that surf shops continue to exist as a result of surfers shopping there is darn near brilliant. I heard a report that supermarkets in town are being solely supported by hungry people. I can't attest to that though. I do know that Empire Kayak is secretly kept in business by Whirling Dirvishes from Instanbul, and not kayakers. But I digress.

We also have posted our dates for the ONLY 501c3 special needs surfing foundation in Long Beach, please check out surfersway .org for more info.Its free and open to all special needs kids.

Eddie, you mislead a lot and lie occasionally. "Gosnell's actions wouldn't be criminal in a…Read More more enlightened state like New York, would they? " Yes, they would be. And you know it. In fact, if the reproductive rights of women were properly respected, pond scum like Gosnell would not take advantage of women whose options are limited and find it difficult to obtain the quality prenatal care and a safe abortion if the need one. I respect your right to be against late term abortion and I am not cheering them on but reproductive rights, control over one's body ought to be protected. And doing so would not only eliminate the Gosnells of the world, but would allow for a full range of services that decrease the likihood that women would face situations that bring them to abortion mills like his.
