Slow Food Meal - The North Fork Table & Inn Style!

YUUUUMMMMMMMMMYYYYYYY!!!!! 

Last week I hopped on the ferries and headed North - to Southold, NY.  I arrived at The North Fork Table & Inn ready to experience my first Slow Food Dinner. 

Totally delicious!  A lovely crowd. Interesting Speakers (Baymen, Farmers, Chef).  Here's what I learned: Peconic Bay Scallops are in season for the next month and they tasted like candy!!  I have never tasted sweeter Scallops in my life and the good news is that this year's harvest is one of the biggest in recent years.  Brussel Sprouts......in season and so yummy I'm tempted to go buy some right now and make a meal of them!

If you can attend a Slow Food Dinner, I highly recommend you do.  It's refreshing to spend an evening with some of the best locals around and eat our local produce.  Yum!!

Happy Mother's Day!!

I am truly fortunate to have a great Mom!  And without sounding too bias, I want to send a shout-out to her on this mother's day weekend. 

My mother, Jeri Woodhouse and her business partner Jayne McCahill have created an amazing company named A Taste Of The North Fork. 

These 2 dynamic women have grown this little business into a huge empire.....they make products for many of the local vineyards and farm stands, that we on the east end visit regularly, as well as producing a fine line of products under their own label.  A new retail store in Peconic is a blessing for those of us looking for that last minute hostess gift! Need a last minute mother's day gift....... 

Jeri and Jayne - you rock!!!
