At Edible Escape: A World of Flavor and A Glass of Long Island Wine

At Edible Escape–our travel tasting party next month–we plan to wow your tastebuds with some worldly flavors. We’ve got a killer lineup, including food from Ukraine, olive oil from Spain, wines from Portugal, high-class Italian fare and so much more. But as much as we love to travel the world with our forks at the ready, we don’t want to overlook the bounty of flavor here at home.

Long Island Winterfest: A Month of Specials on Music, Meals, Jazz, B&Bs and Winery Tours

Once again the wineries, chefs and artists of eastern Long Island is thinking of you and what you’re going to do in the depths of winter. For the next five weekends the East End–and a few points closer to home–are throwing Winterfest, a collaborative,cross-cultural effort to lure you out East. Sure, the Hudson Valley has those foothills, but this semi-agrarian vacation-land shares our very own land mass, and is a short trip up the Sunrise Highway or the LIE from Atlantic Ave. Why not spend a chilly day warming up with local wine? Snuggle up in front of a crackling fireplace at a quiet Hamptons bed-and-breakfast? Listen to jazz with a view of the vineyards? Or find some great deals on true farm-to-table restaurant meals? Welcome to Winterfest.
