My latest Sunday Seven — a bi-weekly roundup in wine, food, lifestyle, design and travel. A peek inside a beautiful modern Amagansett home, the latest and best hotels in Napa, how to master the perfect french omelette, and the new buzz in New York.


What’s New in New York
There is always so much that is new in Manhattan! Here are some of the most exciting openings, hot hotels, buzzy restaurants, and must-dos across New York City this spring.


Cook Like Gwyneth Paltrow
Six Gwyneth Paltrow-approved recipes that look delicious. People know Gwenyth for her different ventures in acting and wellness, but she’s also written five cookbooks with fresh, seasonal recipes.


Tour This Modern Amagansett Beauty
This Hamptons house is gorgeous. I love that the exterior is minimal and stark, clad with a unique black wood — and the interior has warm tones and wood elements like white oak floors. And that focal point pool is to die for!


Stay in the Best Napa Hotels
Nine industry-pro-approved Napa Valley spots to book on your next wine country getaway. I was all about these! There is definitely a range in here — everything from a chef-owned B&B, to the expansive (and expensive!) Stanly Ranch.


Master the Perfect French Omelette
This link claims the pleasure difference between an excellent omelette and a good omelette is vast, and I’d have to agree! Some good tips in here if you’re striving for cooking perfection.


Learn About Oversupply in Wine
Wine consumption has been on the decline since 2017. As a result, it seems every part of the world is struggling with oversupply. The good news is people are drinking less, but better quality wine. Can the wine industry course-correct?


Eat and Drink in the Country’s Top Spots
For the 2024 Global Tastemakers list of the Best Cities for Food and Drinks in the United States, New York retained the No. 1 spot. News that will surprise no one! Notable newcomers are Honolulu; Portland, Maine; and Washington, D.C.
Hope you have a wonderful and relaxing rest of your weekend!
