Sal’s Pizza
“Sal’s is a local legend for its monolithic Sicilian slices,” Sexton says. “Get a crusty, caramelized corner slice and sit in the front window. Or, if you’re pressed for time, take one of those weighty, tombstone-sized boxes of dreamy Sicilian back home.” 316 Mamaroneck Ave (914) 381-2022, salsmamaroneck.com
Hash o Nash
“Falafel, hummus, shawarma, kebabs—you know the deal,” Sexton says. “Hash o Nash is a great spot for quick, often healthy, takeaways. Plus, its Middle Eastern cuisine is vegetarian friendly. Look for delicious fried halloumi cheese.” 441 Mamaroneck Ave, (914) 630-7310, hashonash.com
Lum Yen
“Sometimes,” says Sexton, “all you want is a Mai-Tai and a pu pu platter. Big, glitzy Lum Yen hearkens back to that innocent, mid-century age when Chinese food was fun.” Speaking of fun, “Snag some sweet-and-sour takeout and download tiki drink recipes for home,” Sexton advises. 100 W Boston Post Rd, (914) 698-6881, lumyen.com
