READY FOR CORNED BEEF? St. Patrick’s Day is just around the corner, which means corned beef will start popping up on restaurant menus. Corned beef at Finnegan’s with a pint of Guinness and a shot of Jameson’s should get your Irish up. Tell Tommy the Long-Islander Foodies sent you.

GRAND ST. PATRICK’S FEAST: Huntington Elks Lodge No. 1565 restaurant and catering hall (195 Main St., Huntington 646-504- 3557) will host an exciting St. Patrick’s Day party on Saturday, March 12, 7-10 p.m. A $20 buffet will be stocked with Irish favorites, and beer specials include $3 pints.

‘MOLTO’ MONDAYS: The folks at Ruvo (63 Broadway, Greenlawn 631-261-7700 www.ruvorestaurant.com) tell us that in Italian, “molto” means “great quantity.” We think it ought to mean “what a deal!” On Molto Mondays at Ruvo, you’ll start with either classic Caesar salad, insalata misto or a hot bowl of pasta fagiole; then enjoy a heaping plate of homemade pasta – choose rigatoni Bolognese, spaghetti alla vognole, penne alla vodka or spaghetti with meatballs – and accompany your meal with a glass of Chianti or Pinot Grigio, all for $20 per person. So what does “molto” mean to you?
