September 16, 2009
James Beard House
167 W. 12th Street
New York, NY
Reservations: 212-627-2308

Hammertown is delighted to highlight this event.  Although in New York City, it is honoring our local farmers and chefs and helping support the James Beard House.  And there's a personal connection for me:  It is being organized by Brian J. Alberg ( my niece's husband), who is the Executive Chef at The Red Lion Inn in Stockbridge.  And, chef  Adam Zieminski of Cafe Adam (next door to our Hammertown Gt. Barrington store) will be one of the 6 participating chefs in this event. Read more...



JOAN'S PICK THIS WEEK: BAGGALLINI BAGS

Are you a woman with a flare for fashion but a need for real practicality? Do you love fashionable bags, but they really lack the functionality you need?  Rhonda and I took the plunge this past summer to bring Baggallini bags into our stores, and we can't keep them in stock. These really are "must haves"!  Find out how to get yours here...






HEAD OUT TO "THE GREENS" AT COPAKE COUNTRY CLUB

And we're not talking golf!  We're talking about a great restaurant you might not know about yet.  Restaurant & club owner, Jon Urban, has accomplished what he set out to do.  He's created an upscale restaurant with fine American cuisine but has somehow managed to make it feel warm and relaxed -- like you're in a family-run restaurant.  It's truly authentic and I love that!  Read our review here...


THIS WEEK'S RECIPE:  CHAIWALLA'S FAMOUS TOMATO PIE

I know... I know... Many of you are still mourning over the tomato blight which struck your gardens as well as many professional growers in our area.  But take heart, there are still great tomatoes out there just waiting to give up their juicy wonderfulness for you. And this is one of the best tomato pie recipes you can find.  Let us know how you like it.  Get the recipe by clicking here....
