Fried mozzarella, and nachos, and dumplings oh my!  This menu is the kind that bar food aficionados dream about. Conveniently located next to The Rockville Centre Long Island Railroad train stop, it has a little bit of something for both weary travelers and townies alike. They also have an event coming up for Oktoberfest:

Cannon’s Blackthorn
49 Village Avenue, Rockville Centre, NY, 11570

For starters we sampled Canon’s egg rolls which is a specialty of theirs. Rich with corn beef and cabbage and a refreshing mustard sauce beneath it’s a delicious way to start any meal.

Also, I can never turn down a dumpling as I’m sure you can tell from my last dumpling festival post. Granted I generally prefer mine steamed, however, these deep fried duck and shrimp delights were a flavor explosion. I could have used a bit more duck in each but the flavor pairing was interesting and unconventional for a train side pub.

One of my favorite things about Cannon’s (you can already tell this is not my first time to the rodeo) is that you can create your own salad. I chose to top my cobb creation with steak as opposed to chicken. You can opt for either chicken, shrimp, or steak all cooked to perfection.

Simple and tasty, if you find yourself stranded on Long Island for the afternoon or even want to take a trip there for funsies, visit Cannon’s. Its castle-like decor is especially adorable during the holiday season. Don’t forget to get your ticket to this festival coming up this weekend! A perfect pairing for any Octobeerfest I know.
