Businesses lunch spots on Long Island
A plate of frisee, endive, house cured pancetta, potato crouton and poached egg is called District Salad and is served at The Riverhead Project, on East Main Street in Riverhead. The restaurant is housed in what was once a Chase Manhattan Bank. Owner Dennis McDermott took on this project to create an upscale restaurant using fine local ingredients.
