Babylon Village Meat Market • 1983

The Popp family's butcher legacy runs deep—Barbara's father owned the renowned Sal's Meat Market in Massapequa, and her brother trained Lenny before the couple opened this Deer Park Avenue shop in 1983. Behind the counter, fresh-cut prime meats sit alongside house-made Italian classics like Penne a la Vodka and Baked Ziti, all prepared by hands that have spent four decades perfecting the craft. Walk in for a porterhouse cut to your specs, stay for the eggplant parm that proves butchers know their way around more than just meat.
