Find The Perfect Setting
Art of Eating, one of the East End’s premier caterers, has just launched East End Locations, a new website specifically dedicated to helping one find an event venue or wedding location in the Hamptons or on the North Fork.
When it comes to this topic, Art of Eating knows what they’re talking about. Over the last three decades, the company has catered everything from high-profile political fundraisers and private occasions for celebrities to corporate off-premise events and high-end weddings. The folks at Art of Eating have working relationships with all the behind-the-scenes players in the various municipalities when it comes to permitting. The website breaks down a half dozen possible categories for events: Waterfront, Artistic, Vineyards, Elegant, Countryscapes and Refined Rustic.
“We believe that events should be an expression of your personality,” states Cheryl Stair, Art of Eating co-owner and chef. “The event should be as unique as you are.”
One vital piece of advice offered on the website is to not fall in love with a location until considering the following: budget, layout, parking, guest count, restrooms, rentals, lighting and the all-important legalities that may be involved. These checklists are included in a guide that may be downloaded.

Things Are Heating Up
Fans of all things spicy will appreciate the fact that Heather Suter of Greenport Fire House Sauce and Vincent Macchirole of Greenport Jerky Company have teamed-up on the launch of a new line of Greenport Fire Hot Sauce flavored jerky.
The product starts with Greenport Jerky’s Tender Original Beef Jerky and combines it with Greenport Fire’s traditional style hot sauce infused with roasted habañeros, garlic and carrots. The result is a jerky with big, bold, savory flavors and a respectable amount of heat.
“We have been looking to work with other small batch producers, with Heather making the best damn hot sauce around it seemed to be the perfect fit,” said Mr. Macchirole. “The flavor has exceeded our expectations.”
“We like to find companies with makers that are as equally passionate as we are about their product. We already carried their jerky, so when we were approached by Vinny it was a no brainer, I think you would agree,” added Ms. Suter.
A couple years, after opening a store in 2010, Ms. Suter decided to follow her love of hot sauce. Greenport Fire specializes in carrying small batch sauces from all over the world. Greenport Fire’s slogan is “Everything we’ve got is hot.”
When they sold their marine business after 28 years, Vinny and Carolyn Macchirole took a month-long road trip. Along the way, the couple noticed beef jerky everywhere. They had been making jerky at home so in 2016 figured they could make it for everyone and Greenport Jerky was born. The company’s slogan is “Jerking it Since 2016.”
You can pick up Greenport Fire Hot Sauce Beef Jerky at local farmers markets, fairs and by stopping into Greenport Fire, 125 Main Street in Greenport. The jerky can also be ordered online at greenportjerky.com.
