Restaurant fire shuts down Jericho Turnpike

3:35am? Bet you the mob finished bleeding this place dry and now wants the insurance money.

This is sad. My wife and I go here quite frequently. The waiters and other staff are great folks as is the food. I hope they rebuild (and soon). Good luck Jack.

You've been watching the Sopranos too long!

I'm surprised they weren't able to put out the fire right away. The Fire Station is practically across the street.

This fire is causing them havoc. Every time they think it's out the fire flares up again.

And life imitates art (which was imitating life). Don't rule it out until the fire marshals investigate.

While I hope for a speedy recovery for the minor injuries suffered by the fire fighters, I celebrate the fact this person can no longer be selling "veal".
Calves raised for veal are taken from their mothers immediately after birth and raised so as to deliberately induce borderline anemia. Calves are then denied basic needs, including access to their mother's milk, access to pasture and exercise and often prohibited from any movement at all in order to produce the pale-colored flesh for which veal is coveted.
Calves confined in veal crates, usually measuring 2-feet-wide, cannot turn around, stretch their limbs, or even lie down comfortably. Scientific research indicates that calves confined in crates experience "chronic stress" and require approximately five times more medication than calves living in more spacious conditions. It is not surprising, then, that veal is among the most likely meat to contain illegal drug residues, which pose a threat to human consumers. Researchers also report that veal calves exhibit abnormal coping behaviors associated with frustration including head tossing and shaking, kicking, scratching, and stereotypical chewing behavior. Confined calves experience leg and joint disorders and an impaired ability to walk.

The building was involved upon notification of the FD. If a fire isn't reported until it had a good hold on the building then the FD could be an abutting building and it wouldn't be put out "right away".

I don't consume caffeine. I am stating fact. These calves suffer needlessly for some fancy "dish". Wake up and smell the coffee!

I have a life and only wish the same for the poor calves. The subject is related. Don't think this place wasn't torched for a reason!

I have nothing to do with PETA. I am autonomous.

I was sound asleep at that hour. I found out about it while at work in the morning. My response was to someone who said "get a life" and I replied by saying that the poor calves don't have a life. Some people are motivated to take action for animals.
