Bridgehampton Inn & Restaurant

Located in the same compound as the renowned Loaves & Fishes Cookshop, and overseen by Sybille van Kempen—daughter of the legendary Anna Pump—Bridgehampton Inn and Restaurant offers casually elegant food in its dining room.

Although these recipes are technically restaurant fare, most of them are remarkably easy to prepare, as well as stylish and flavorful. It's easy to imagine serving your guests dishes such as roasted baby carrots with grapefruit gremolata; chilled corn, basil and buttermilk soup (no cooking required whatsoever); braised short ribs with roasted root vegetables; or a fresh apricot trifle, with a pistachio praline for flourish.

And, as an added bonus, there are more than a dozen zippy, contemporary cocktail recipes to help everyone relax before a lovely meal.
