Food Network Star Ina Garten started out on the road to food fame with a specialty shop called the Barefoot Contessa on Newtown Lane in East Hampton. Though she sold the shop to focus more on her television show and cookbooks, and it has since closed, she continues to have an office above where the shop was once located. She also films her show from her house in East Hampton Village. A line of Barefoot Contessa products, like brownie mix and German chocolate cake mix,can be purchased on her website.
This local chain has become an East End staple. You will usually find a line at the Newtown Lane location, but The Golden Pear has a lot to offer. From bakery items to hot meals, this non-fast food take out restaurant has something for everybody. The Golden Pear Cafe has a full breakfast, lunch and bakery menu, as well as several catering options. If you are looking for some of your favorite Golden Pear items, visit its Web site to get a hold of some brownies or a cook book.
