Whether you’re looking for a night out to ply yourself with Passover favorites or want to stay home for a cozy family seder, you’ve got options on the East End. Matzo ball soup, roast chicken, kugel and the rest of the culinary clan are all available for the taking—no chopped liver here (well, unless you want it; there’s plenty to be had). You just need to decide if you’re hankering for take-out or a dine-in experience for the celebration beginning April 6th. Pesach sameach!
Wishbone Farms
54 Hampton Road, Southampton, 631-259-5333
Veteran South Fork chef Eva Lebowitz Pesantez puts a whole lot of love into the warming, homey dishes she prepares for hungry take-out crowds at Wishbone Farms. Her Passover menu is no exception, and is choc-a-block with irresistible dishes for a full-on, table-packed seder for the record books, with stunning touches of flavor and texture that will elevate your meal to the next level. Think harissa-kissed brisket with apricots, pastrami-rubbed smoke salmon, honey roasted carrots and red-wine poached pears with shortbread.
