Every Saturday at the Farmers' Market in Greenport, I routinely spot these two chic girls - often outfitted in St. James striped shirts, many times carrying yoga mats, and one always with the cutest Provence-style market basket in tow - shopping for local produce. Well Saturday they finally approached my stand bought a chicken!
As it turns out, they come by way of Brooklyn to open Fork and Anchor, the newest culinary addition to the NoFo dining scene. Formerly the Angel Country Store, in East Marion, the girls are planning to turn a general store that dates back to 1860 into a foodie destination offering basic provisions, exotic appetizers and prepared foods featuring all local produce. There will also be picnics to go and CSA (communtiy-supported agriculture) boxes for sale for weekenders. Erin Fitzpatrick and Lucy Muellner, a sommelier/events planner and a fashion stylist turned chef, plan to open for business this month. They also got their liquor license approved so expect to see Greenport Harbor Brewing Company on tap.
Oh, and they were just featured in Vogue.com last week. Check out the article here: http://www.vogue.com/culture/article/an-eating-guide-to-long-islands-north-fork/
Already they're bringing an element of style to the North Fork; I can't wait for their premiere.
