PARIS COMES TO GREAT NECK

Boulangerie Marie Blanchere is located at 550 Middle Neck Road Road.

The pastries are excellent, the baguettes are delicious, the coffee is fresh and very good.

With its first location in the USA right here in Great Neck, I had the pleasure of tasting a few of the beautifully baked goods offered, including the almond and plain croissants, hamburger buns and baguettes.  Looking forward to going back for more.  The chocolate cake, raspberry and fruit pies, sandwiches and pizza look fresh and worth the calories. One can order a cappuccino, and ice coffee is also available.

The staff is very nice and I am most impressed guests on the long lines  have been most patient. 

The trip to Boulangerie Marie is an adventure.  Bon Voyage et Bon Appetit!

MEDICARE SCAM

This posting is a warning for anyone enrolled in Medicare. I received a phone call last week from someone claiming to be from “Medicare Pain Management Dept.” This is a scam to get you to give them your Medicare ID so they can submit fraudulent claims for medical devices. Medicare will never call you directly to ask for your ID or for any reason. If you do receive a call like this or any call asking if you have pain, HANG UP IMMEDIATELY! Do not engage in conversation.  I know these phone calls are annoying and frightening to some, but being informed ahead of time will hopefully prevent you from becoming a victim of these scams.
