Other tasty desserts include the vanilla crème brûlée, profiteroles and ricotta mascarpone mousse.

Almond Restaurant in Bridgehampton continues their acclaimed “Artist & Writers” series on Thursday, February 9 at 7 p.m. featuring author Sylvie Bigar.

Coche Comedor is here to rid you of your winter blues.

The chef’s selections will change weekly and the promotion will be confined to the bar area only.

Honest Man’s Beverage Director Chimene Macnaughton says of these evenings, “Anybody who’s weathered a winter out east is familiar with this stretch we’re in now where we collectively wonder if we’ll ever see another daffodil bloom. We can all surely use some funning up!” We can get behind that!
