Out east foodie is about celebrating the bounty and richness of all things food throughout the east end of Long Island. I am a trained Graphic Designer for over 20 years, bringing people’s brands and stories to life in a holistic way through beautifully designed graphics with combined photography and text. My hope is to bring that same level of expertise, passion and sensitivity to this blog, which will captivate the out east communities stories in a unique way. I will be visiting local farms, fisheries and artisanal food makers that span the palate of the Hamptons and North Fork region, sharing with you the foods and philosophies of these local artisans. There is a revival of history on the east end. It revisits the old tradition of farm-to-table and brings neighbors to one another by supporting what makes us thrive and what makes the east end so special. Building bountiful relationships with local bakers, beekeepers, cheesemakers, chefs, farmers, fishers, gardeners and winemakers, we can create an eco-friendly food system that is undeniably sustainable, local and delicious.

My FoodyDirect Interview about Eating on Long Island's East End

November 07, 2015/ laura luciano

I recently was interviewed by the acclaimed gourmet food website FoodyDirect as part of their Expert Interview series that features folks like me who have a voice and palate for all things food. FoodyDirect is a team of passionate food and drink experts who seek delicious sips and eats prepared by top-tier restaurants, specialty food vendors and artisans. I was honored to represent the East End of Long Island and flattered to answer a few questions about myself and what feeds my insatiable appetite seasonally from the land and sea. Check out the full interview here and what fall recipe is my favorite this time of year.
