Bourbon Arabica coffee has grown wild in Rwanda for over a century, and this is the first African retailer to bring this specialty to the U.S. Rwandan farmers collectively nurture and harvest beans from five regions, each with distinct soil and climates: Akagera, Kivu Lake, Kizi Rift, Muhazi and Virunga. Bourbon Coffee buys coffee […]

Townline BBQ
It’s hard to resist the welcoming, wafting scent of BBQ, especially when sitting in slow-moving traffic on 27. Townline BBQ is an inexpensive, counter-service, wooden shack-esque place with great fried mac and cheese and cornbread. I’ve not had the ribs and brisket, but people I’ve dined with have liked both. Corner of Townline Road and […]
Yama-Q
We love this tiny sushi restaurant for its fresh fare and inventive menu. While sushi staples form the base, entrees like shitake-crusted tofu, duck quesadillas and black bean burritos add an alluring twist. Since it’s always packed with a long wait to boot, it’s best to go during the week or have a back-up plan. […]
Nick & Toni’s
Nick & Toni’s is one of our favorite go-to spots in East Hampton. The menu is comprised of simple and delicious dishes made with fresh local ingredients. The interior is designed to resemble a Tuscan farmhouse, though during the busy summer months you’ll never get a glimpse of the actual structure through the crowd. The […]
Southampton Publick House
If your wallet needs a break from the other Southampton eateries, try Southampton Publick House. It’s a casual, affordable dining spot with craft beers from the on-site brewery. Try the Double White, the Altbier or one of the seasonal beers. 40 Bowden Square, Southampton, NY
Babette’s
This is my favorite Hamptons breakfast spot. The food is delicious, with a focus on local, organic and seasonal, and you can sit outside for optimal people-watching. I always order the Jo Mama, a bounty of sweet and savory components (whole wheat pancake, French toast, one egg, fruit, oatmeal, oven roasted new potatoes). For healthful […]
Vinothèque Speltz
Sommelier Benjamin Fanuel knows what you will like. He personally selects the wines, champagnes and crémants and spirits in this small but robust vinothèque, which features Luxembourgish (from private caves only), French, German, Chilean and American selections, to name but a few. Mr. Fanuel is passionate about wine and loves talking about it. He knows […]
La Fourchette à Droit
If you’re in the mood for a casserole, stop by La Fourchette à Droit, just off Place d”Armes. Although the casseroles like jugged hare with mushrooms and 7-hour lamb shanks set this restaurant apart, the rest of the menu is appealing as well, offering soups, salads, seafood and meat. 5, avenue Monterey, Luxembourg City L-2163 […]
Le Fin Gourmand
Le Fin Gourmand, a Luxembourg brasserie, recently re-opened its doors after a summer hiatus and we were thrilled to finally try it. We’d heard from many people that it was worth visiting, so we met our new friends and neighbors, Cara and Joe, there for dinner. We were not disappointed! The menu features seafood and […]
Fish La Boissonnerie
En route to a different restaurant, we encountered Fish’s welcoming mosaic storefront and charming interior and decided to give it a try. Also, we were curious about the second-floor kitchen. It turns out the food is sent down to the dining room in a dumbwaiter. Climb the narrow, windy wooden staircase to the WC and […]
