Where to Go for a Food and Wine Fix in The Hamptons
The combination of wines and spirits, fine food, and great company is one of the greatest pleasures in life. Here are some top picks for dining and drinking in the Hamptons.
Sag Harbor
Newly opened Wölffer Kitchen uses local, seasonal, and homemade ingredients to serve classic American cuisine with a Mediterranean flair.
Start with the steamed mussels in rosé, coconut milk, and red curry broth, with house-made veal chorizo and grilled bread. Follow up with the seared yellowfin tuna with aioli, roasted potatoes, arugula, bacon, and pickled red onions, and the campanelle pasta with braised duck, escarole, crumbled fennel sausage, black olives, tomatoes, Parmesan, and chili flakes.
Round out your meal with exceptional local and regional sipping—the Wölffer Estate Summer in a Bottle 2014 rosé, the Momokawa Organic Junmai Sake NV, and the Sparkling Pointe Blanc de Blanc Brut 2010 are just some of the inspired titles on this all-star wine list.
East Hampton
1770 House offers food and drink in a formal dining room and a casual tavern. For dinner, start with the spicy fluke tartare with marinated cucumbers, hijiki seaweed, and wasabi tobiko, move on to the Montauk scallops à la Plancha with cured duck, Brussels sprouts, roasted pumpkin, and hoisin, then polish off with the Stella Pollock cherry upside down cake.
Save the drinking for the tavern, for some meatloaf in puréed potato, spinach, and roasted garlic sauce and a half bottle of Archery Summit Arcus Pinot Noir 2011, or some Opus One Magnum Cabernet Sauvignon 2006.
Southampton
Southampton Social Club offers winning wines and cocktails, and spectacular New American noshing to boot.
Start with the toasted brioche with caviar, smoked salmon, and crème fraiche, sesame-encrusted ahi tuna with wasabi caviar, wakame, and soy reduction on lotus chips, and the savory lobster salad on mini croissants. Afterwards, sample the Maine Lobster Orechiette with shiitake mushrooms, asparagus and baby spinach, heirloom corn and tomatoes, and cognac consommé, or the local pan-seared striped bass in roasted tomato and artichoke tapenade, organic black rice, and vegetable bouillon.
Pair your fare with some Moët & Chandon Imperial, Balland Sancerre Blanc 2013, a bottle of Jadot Corton Charlemagne 2009, or savor some mixes like the mecox colada (vodka, lime sours, passion fruit, coconut, and pineapple), or the“Roaring Twenties,” a cocktail of St. Germain, Grey Goose vodka, grapefruit, and lime juice.
Next time you hanker to ‘dine and wine’ in The Hamptons, make a beeline for these places for some serious craving consummation.
