TV series everyone should binge: “The East End” on News 12! We recently relaunched the show and the new look and energy are unmatched. If you haven’t watched, it essentially explores the Long Island region where foodies, families and outdoor enthusiasts can find the perfect nearby getaway. There’s something for everyone, and it’s where I’ve discovered a lot of my now-favorite local spots.
Favorite way to de-stress? I recently got into hot yoga and it has changed the game for me, both physically and mentally. I also love to cook.
Fast food guilty pleasure: I’m not big on fast food. I was a chef in college, which is actually how I put myself through school. My favorite dish to make at home is beef wellington. But if I must choose, you can’t go wrong with a double and fries from Wendy’s.
