Dan's Taste of Two ForksManhattan Media, the publishers of Dan's Papers and producers of events throughout the Hamptons, Miami and Manhattan, is proud to announce the second annual Dan's Taste of Two Forks. This pivotal summer event for foodies from the tri-state area celebrates the best restaurants and wineries from both the North and South Forks. Stemming from the overwhelming "sold-out" success of the 2011 Dan's Taste of Two Forks, we are gearing up for the highly anticipated follow-up event which will be this summer's hottest ticket.
Dan's Taste of Two ForksFor the inaugural Two Forks Outstanding Achievement Award, Chef Gerry Hayden of North Fork Table & Inn will be honored for his dedication to the local community and commitment to native Long Island produce and ingredients. Gerry has had a decorated career, having run such celebrated Manhattan eateries as Aureole and Amuse before opening North Fork Table and Inn in 2006. For the last two years the chef, passionate about eating and sourcing locally, has been nominated for the James Beard award for Best Chef, Northeast. He owns North Fork Table and Inn with his wife, Claudia Fleming.
This delectable celebration falls on Bastille Day this year, and we are proud to have award-winning chef and French native Jean-Georges Vongerichten host the festivities with true French flare.

"I am honored to host the 2nd annual Dan's Taste of Two Forks," says Jean-Georges. "It is always a pleasure to be amongst a group of gifted chefs and fine restaurants."
