LUNCHBOX SPECIALS: Kashi Modern Japanese (12 Elm St., Huntington village, 631-923-1960, www.kashijapanese.com), an upscale and modern jewel in Huntington village that’s making as big a splash with its food as it is for the stylish, contemporary décor, offers terrific $15 box lunch specials. Teriyakis – chicken, shrimp, salmon or steak – are paired with enticing companion dishes (chicken with shrimp tempura; shrimp with beef kushiyaki; salmon with rock shrimp tempura; and rib eye steak with crispy calamari) and served with soup or salad. If sushi is more your style, sushi with one of their fast-becoming-famous rolls – likewise served with soup or salad – is also $15.

LOBSTER TIME: Harbor Mist (105 Harbor Road, Cold Spring Harbor, 631-659-3888, www.harbormistrestaurant.com) offers a 2-pound lobster special for $26.95, Sunday and Monday. Pair that with the spectacular view and that’s a lobster special that’s tough to beat.

FATHER’S DAY: Dad’s big day is Sunday, June 19. For a gift to bring out the gourmet grill man he really is, Williams & Sonoma offers a set of grilling planks in maple, cedar and alder. Grilling fish fillets, poultry or steaks on natural wood planks infuses the food with a lightly smoky flavor while retaining moisture. Just arrange the meat and additional ingredients on a presoaked, preheated plank, close the grill lid and cook. Foods emerge with a pleasant smoky flavor. Alder adds smoky flavor to poultry and seafood; cedar adds a smoky edge to poultry, pork, beef and fish; and maple planks are great with pork, poultry and seafood. The set of three is $12; three each of three, $32. www.Williams-Sonoma.com.

Show time is 8:30 p.m. and admission is $20 per person. Dinner’s a separate transaction and they promise to have you done in time for the show. Call for reservations.
