CROWE SIGHTINGS FLY: We’re
sure seeing a lot of film superstar Russell Crowe around Huntington
these days. Crowe, who stars with Lucy Liu in the upcoming
Quentin Tarantino martial arts flick “The Man with Iron
Fists,” was spotted with his director, hip hop star RZA,
dining at Besito (402 New York Ave., Huntington Village 631-549-0100
besitomex.com) last Sunday, Sept. 14. Crowe enjoyed fish tacos
with a Carlitos Way margarita while RZA sampled the vegetarian
tacos and fried plantains. The film is slated to hit theaters
November 2.

MORE CHOCOLATE: There’s no such thing as too much chocolate,
which is why we’re looking forward to the opening of
national sweet shop franchise Kilwin’s at the former
Lite Choice store on Main Street in Huntington Village. Kilwin’s
always looks for a tourist destination with an upscale demographic
for its locations, and Huntington fits the bill. The store
offers “down home” confections and ice cream made
with fresh ingredients. Look for the store to open before
the holiday season.
