CEO John Mazur. There is a store selling cloth, not sure they’re one or separate entity. It has a gorgeous garden in the back. The huge teak panel with mirror is $825, $150 shipping.

Inspired by these signs and this one from sweet shop, we purchased four frames at $36 each, the listed price.

This antique store in North Fork is the most expensive one. The most clean one.  The most organized one. Almost all the antique stores have dust and smell damp. Not this one.
The sign says Your husband called .. He said to buy anything you want. is pretty cute.
The cigar box cost $295 is beautiful.

Gene Mott says he and his wife Patricia got into the antiques business by accident. He was working a construction job when he found a piece of furniture in the road and sold it to a dealer. “I had a little too much fun with it,” he says with a chuckle, “and it got out of hand.”

This accident was a happy one, because the 4,000-square-foot store he built and crammed with unique items 36 years…

One of the antique store in North Fork we visited. Yi loves the School House lighting feature that reminded him of

It’s a one block street, one end is at the Mattituck train station in North Fork. The Love Lane Kitchen looked popular, with a crowd waiting.

@ NYBG. Portage canoe trail: how do they get down the fall?

Here is (we can’t find their dinner menu on line) sweet menu and first course menu.
It’s pleasant, a copycat. Very good cooking. I particularly liked the ‘shot’ of butternut squash with chorizo oil, delicious. They offer  $75 prefix and the tasting menu is $150.

I had appetizer (tuna), main course (lamb) and for dessert, I’ve pear and almond tart. Delicious? Not bad. Worth $75? No. The waiting staff isn’t sophisticate, (a few seemed haven’t reached drinking age) the rent should be much less if not fraction of Manhattan’s. They ask the table stick with the same dining option (either tasting menu or prefix), served with multiple waiters simultaneously. Being in the ‘wine country’ their corking fee of $30 per bottle is too much. Oh maybe because of it.

The North Fork Food Truck was parking in the lot when we left.

The freebies: the butternut squash and Cherizo oil is excellent, the chocolate is so so.
