The event will be hosted in collaboration with Andrew Mahoney, Jack Formica, and the Foster Farm.

News From Arthur and Sons
Arthur and Sons in Bridgehampton will serve happy hour at the bar only and a prix fixe menu every Wednesday through Sunday from 4 to 6 p.m. However, readers had better hurry up. After the print edition of The Star went to press, the restaurant announced that it is closing for the season on Sunday and planning to reopen on May 1.

Among the appetizers on the prix fixe menu are Caesar salad, meatballs, fried calamari, and fried mozzarella. The long list of entrees includes chicken piccata, chicken Marsala, chicken Francese, spicy rigatoni, and fusilli Bolognese. Dessert is either a mini cannoli plate or a gelato al cioccolato cup. The price is $39.95; there are a couple of optional add-ons.

Happy hour features half-priced appetizers, $10 glasses of house wine, $12 well cocktails, and $6 draft beer at the bar.

Brunch Pop-Up
Art of Eating will have its food truck at 264 Butter Lane in Bridgehampton Friday and Saturday from 11:30 a.m. to 3 p.m. for a brunch pop-up. Among the offerings are a breakfast burrito, classic chilaquiles, Oaxaca cheese and roasted poblano quesadilla, posole, squash and goat cheese empanada, churros with two sauces, Mexican hot chocolate, and more. Cups of warm cider are on the house.

This article has been changed from its print version to reflect that information about the Hunters and Farmers Feast and Arthur and Sons closing for the season Dec. 1 arrived too late for the print edition.
