Krisch’s Restaurant is Worth Every Calorie

Krisch’s Restaurant and Ice Cream Parlour is a staple in Massapequa.  Stepping into the restaurant is like taking a step back in time.  The entrance is lined with mouthwatering chocolate treats that are impossible to pass up.  If you have to wait for a table, purchasing a few of these confectionary masterpieces is an awesome […]
