On the East End, we’re all about the locavore these days, and it doesn’t get any better than The Hamptons Kitchen, a delicious regional cookbook, and the North Fork Chocolate Company, which makes a variety of delicious treats right in house. On April 3, the day before Easter, stop by 740 Main Road, Aquebogue, between noon to 4PM to get your own copy of The Hamptons Kitchen signed by co-author Stacy Dermont. While you’re there, fill your family’s Easter baskets with local candy and delicacies.
“I can’t wait to get out there, all safe and socially distanced, to talk with the public about the joys of locavorism!” Dermont said. The Hamptons Kitchen offers simple recipes appropriate for Long Island’s different seasons and features Dermont’s suggested wine and beer pairings.
Chef Steve of the North Fork Chocolate Company incorporates local ingredients into his chocolate and catering work—including beers, wines, fruits, and foraged herbs and seaweed. “I’m an intuitive cook and artist,” said Chef Steve. “I do what feels right, and that always centers on the best the North Fork has to offer—we live in a uniquely rich food shed.”
Why not support local endeavor—deliciously? See you April 3!
