Celebrate Long Island Restaurant Week: Foody's Water Mill Hosts Homegrown Harvest Menu & Slow Food East End Benefit


Bryan Futerman, executive chef and owner of Water Mill Foody’s Restaurant is a passionate homegrown chef who cares as much about his menu’s ingredients, his customers, and his community  -- in equal portions.

Somehow, he finds the time to talk to his local growers and their artisanal homegrown ingredients.
He explores the menu and the gardens at his inspired Homegrown garden: The Hayground School’s Jon Snow, as featured in the The Hamptons & Long Island Homegrown Cookbook,




Just the other day, Chef Bryan cited the Hayground School lunch menu, saying he enjoyed “a delicious bowl of white bean and Hayground Swiss chard soup & homemade baguette yesterday with John and all the students in Jeff's kitchen. An inspiration indeed!”

How much do we love that?!  A far cry from the usual brown paper bag stale sandwich school lunch bag that most remember!

Chef Bryan has artfully curated a seasonal harvest menu for the dinner to celebrate my book: 
The Hamptons & Long Island Homegrown Cookbook

The event will also benefit Slow Food East End.  http://www.slowfoodeastend.org/category/events/
