If you’ve been on Winter Street in Edgartown recently, you might have seen a cool store, Lure-Fish, next to Vintage MV Wine & Spirits. In the window, there are these really cool fish pictures. When you get up-close, you see that it’s a ton of lures that were used to create the image. Head inside this little pop-up shop, a...

I am big into themed things – food, parties, events, I love something cohesive. So, when I ran into chef Josh Aronie, from the Homeport and The Beach Plum restaurants, and he mentioned BBQ nights at The Beach Plum, I was intrigued of course. Local Smoke has lent its smoker to chef Nathan Gould of The Beach Plum. This is such a tre...

Ah… Fall on Martha’s Vineyard. A truly magical time. There is a slight chill in the air, but it is just as beautiful as ever. Also, to the surprise of many, there is so much to see and do. After all, Fall is the unofficial festival season on Martha’s Vineyard. Have Fun With the Locals The weekend of October 2nd and 3rd, i...

I went for coffee with a friend to Beetlebung in Oak Bluffs on Monday, and saw that it was closing on Sunday, September 20th. I realized that I had not been yet this year, and needed to sample the new chef’s food before it closed. The next day I made a date with a friend, and was ready for Beetlebung version 1. I say version 1 beca...

What I love about Summer is the fact that there is so much to do on Martha’s Vineyard. There’s not a day where you have to even think about what to do, fun waits around every corner. Though I love every minute of it, come September, I like to take a break. I don’t feel the need to travel someplace exotic or far away, yet (those fe...

Each Summer, thousands of people rent homes for vacation on the Vineyard. Part of the experience is packing the car full of all your stuff and of course favorite foods that you can’t live without. Then on top of that there are the quick trips to the stores once here. Inevitably, there is food left over, and most people don’t want t...

I always enjoy learning about how the Vineyard inspires people. Rob Ianelli has been coming to the Island for 25 of his 29 years. It is here that his best memories have been and continue to be made. Coming from a family of entrepreneurs, and being one himself, Rob has begun a number of businesses on Martha’s Vineyard. He did What’...

Chilmark Tavern has eluded me for the last couple of years, but this was the Summer it had to happen. I have been hearing so much about the Island’s only “tavern”. The food and the scene draws crowds nightly with people from all over Martha’s Vineyard. Living in Oak Bluffs, it sometimes feels like heading up-Island is a serio...

For 24 years, kayakers, row boats, and now paddle boards and more, have been racing for a good cause at the Oar & Paddle Regatta. Originally started by Island legend Dana Gaines, who loves to kayak and has actually won the regatta 22 times, the Oar & Paddle Regatta is a fundraiser for the Friends of Sengekontacket...

Did you know that the Right Fork Diner has been serving up dinner during the Summer months for four years? I had no idea. How did I miss out on this amazing experience for so long? I am slightly ashamed with this realization. To make matters worse, the last day to have dinner at the diner is Monday, August 31st. The diner will sti...
