Northforker TV is organized around the four verbs that best sum up our content: eat, drink, live and breathe.
Each episode — we produced three this year — features segments about some of the people and places that make you want to eat, drink, live and breathe on the North Fork.
You can watch the full 17-minute episode above then rewatch your favorite segments below. For more about what’s in this final episode of 2018 or to watch the first episode, see the guide below.
Eat — Making holiday platters on Love Lane
The Village Cheese Shop has become a go-to foodie destination in Mattituck and that’s certainly true around the holidays, when local hosts want to provide the best options for their holiday guests.
We spoke with shop owner Michael Affatato about how his staff prepares its platters and what kinds of cheese to eat this time of year.
