Living on an island like we do, here in New York, rewards us with a nearly unending assortment of beautiful dining options to choose from—and this is one of them...

"Trumpets on the Bay" is located in the charming town of Eastport, and about halfway to the Hamptons, right along the edge of Seatuck Cove & Moriches Bay—this lovely restaurant offers you magnificent water views and impeccable service by the polite, well dressed staff...

This "special occasion" restaurant lures romantics not only with the stunning seaside scenery but also with the fine American-Continental cuisine—which I happened to just adore...

Though its one me and my Baby don't get to quite as often since moving west to the Great South Bay area, it is still a wonderful restaurant to enjoy on a weekend excursion with your sweetheart—afterwards, especially if you stop in for Sunday Brunch, you can stroll through a few of the antique stores and boutiques in town for a little shopping or, better yet, take a short drive west to Moriches and enjoy discovering all of the interesting odds and ends inside of the "Barntique Village"

*"Perfectly Prepared Lobster & Desserts"*

Regardless of whether you're going to shop, head east to "Duckwalk Vineyard" or just go in for a meal—you will not be disappointed...

From seaside favorites such as whole Lobster, Halibut Veracruz (with jalapeño, wine & avocado) and Striped Bass with Confetti Rice or Grass Fed Filet, Hampton Salad (with bleu cheese, pine nuts & raspberry vinaigrette) and the Chef's Pasta du Jour—the menu might be smaller than some but there's more than enough options for any guest to choose from and each dish I've tried has always come out made to perfection...

Though the views and scenery come at a premium, "if you love the one you're with, bring them here"

Me, I'll be heading back soon, if only for the Lobster Bisque and whole Lobster dinner I had the last time I was there—definitely worth a visit, if only once, and oh so "Definitely Delish"
