NEW BURGER: Word on the street is that American Roadside (337 New York Ave., Huntington) has been sold. When we looked, there were neither signs on the building nor menus on the wall, but you could get a burger. Look for new local ownership under the name Top Bunz.

WINE DEALS: Here’s a chance to try some of the wines that consistently earn a Wine Spectator Award of Excellence for Jonathan’s Ristorante (15 Wall St., Huntington 631-549-0055 www.jon-athansristorante.com). Wednesdays and Thursdays, take 30 percent off all bottles of wine. It’s a great time to build a meal around that Turley Zinfandel you’ve had your eye on.

TANGO TREAT: The Heckscher Museum of Art will feature tango music by Serenade Duo, featuring flutist Michelle LaPorte and guitarist Gerry Saulter, plus classic tango dancing by renowned dancers Madalyn Klein and Nelson Avila, on Saturday, Feb. 13, 7 –9 p.m. Appetizers from Café Buenos Aires will be served along with wines from Paumanok Vineyards. $20 for museum members, $25 non-members. www. heckscher.org.

JET SETTERS DO GREECE: Prime – An American Kitchen and Bar (117 New York Ave, Huntington 631-385-1515 www.restaurantprime.com) takes diners on a first-class culinary trip to Greece with its Jet Set menus Sunday through Thursday nights in February. Enjoy charred octopus salad with olives, feta and peppers, or chick pea soup to start. Main courses are Mediterranean sea bass with potatoes, spinach, lemon-dill yogurt sauce, or braised lamb with cumin-scented eggplant. There’s baklava with sesame ice cream for dessert, or sautéed blood orange with Greek yogurt, honey and almonds. Three-course prix-fixe menus at $40 per person ($50 with wine) are themed to a new region of the world each month.
