November 14, 2022 by InsidePress

Open November 18 to December 30

WESTCHESTER COUNTY, N.Y. (November 14, 2022) – Harvest Moon Farm and Orchard in North Salem will once again transform into an enchanted forest after apple-picking season is over; and this year the LUMAGICA spectacular holiday trail is longer with several new and brilliant displays.

The natural landscape of the Orchard is a canvas for design and creative and immersive storytelling and will be filled with over 750,000 lights, whimsical creatures, and many surprises. The over half mile trail will take visitors on a journey through six magical spaces, Sparkling Light, Into the Wonderland, Magical Trees, A Great Celebration, Treats and Sweets, and Beyond the Forest.

During the LUMAGICA experience, guests will enjoy enormous, illuminated displays including a 20-foot-tall reindeer and a soaring parrot offering plenty of photo ops as attendees wind their way through light tunnels all timed to a musical performance. To get into the spirit of the holidays, visitors can grab a warm drink and an illuminated wand on their way in to begin the trail. At the end of the trail, participants will be greeted by fire pits as well as hot food, cider donuts, and seasonal drinks available for purchase. It is a memorable holiday experience for all ages.

LUMAGICA will open November 18 and run through December 30 from 4:00 pm to 9:00 pm at 130 Hardscrabble Road.

Old Stone Trattoria’s Recipes for Success & Delicious Dining

November 9, 2022 by Nolan Thornton

Old Stone Trattoria has been a staple of the community for over a decade, thanks in no small part to the hard work of owner Angelo Tradito. If Old Stone’s customers had to have one complaint about him or the restaurant, it’s that his Chappaqua hotspot is only open six days a week! From their specialties Chicken Scarpiello and their homemade Fusilli to the perennial crowd favorite Chicken Parmesan, it can be difficult to keep ingredients on the shelf. That’s fine with Tradito because the fresh ingredients are part of the secret to Old Stone Trattoria’s success. “It’s fresh ingredients and love,” said Tradito. It’s hard to think of a better recipe than that.

When you first sit down, you are greeted by a basket of warm bread and a delicious tomato and olive oil dip. There is an excellent assortment of additional appetizers as well, such as the Black Truffle Burra. The only thing to keep in mind is to not fill up before the entrees! Old Stone is famous for their pizza, but their entrees are not to be overlooked. The Penne Ala Old Stone is an excellent choice for patrons of all ages. Kids love the creamy pink sauce that’s reminiscent of a vodka sauce, and the parents love the pancetta and mushrooms that really sends it over the edge.

All the recipes were handed down from Tradito’s parents, who ran a restaurant themselves where Tradito served as head chef for many years. Good food runs deep in the family. They immigrated to the United States from Italy when Tradito was five and have honored their roots ever since. Old Stone’s food is prepared in a traditional Sicilian style. Their Chicken Parmesan and their Eggplant Parmesan, for instance, eschew the typical breadcrumb method for a lighter egg wash and flour treatment. That might be part of the reason why they go through four pounds of eggplant a week according to Traditio. Speaking of vegetables, a side order of the Broccoli Rabe is an absolute must! And if you want more, the Broccoli Rabe and Sausage Pasta is an incredible choice for an entree.

Not only does Old Stone have great food, they have a great staff as well. Every employee works hard to make sure you have a wonderful meal. This all comes back to passion that Tradito displays. “I love getting to know the customer and I love the customer getting to know us,” he said. Tradito knows many customers on a first name basis, including Bill Clinton, who can be spotted picking up takeout from Old Stone Trattoria just like every other Chappaqua resident. But Old Stone Trattoria doesn’t care who you are. You’ll still be greeted with a warm smile and great food no matter what. “When I step inside, it’s like I’m home,” said Tradito. It shows. When you eat at Old Stone Trattoria, you’re in Tradito’s house, tasting his food that was passed down from his parents. You’re one of the family.

The history of Old Stone Trattoria reads like a movie script. Tradito had lived in Chappaqua for years before opening up Old Stone, but had since moved away. One day, he was paying a visit to his old stomping grounds when he stumbled upon a vacant building that just spoke to him. As luck would have it, the realtor was hanging a for lease sign just as Tradito was making his way over to get a better look, and the rest was history. Old Stone celebrated its 12-year anniversary in September, and there are no signs of slowing down.

Old Stone Trattoria is open for dine-in and takeout services from Tuesday through Sunday at 425 King Street in Chappaqua. If dining in, it is recommended to make a reservation.

MOUNT KISCO, NY – The Northern Westchester Hospital (NWH) Foundation announced today that Barbara Alpert, MD, PhD, FACP; Pamela Hervey; Amanda L. Messina, MD, FACS; and Carl D. Reimers, MD, FACC, FSCAI, have been appointed as board members. The mission of these volunteer leaders is to serve as hospital ambassadors for the community and to provide advice on fundraising strategies for the hospital, which is part of the nonprofit health system Northwell Health.

“We are thrilled to have Drs. Alpert, Messina and Reimers and Ms. Hervey join our already amazing group of foundation board volunteers,” said Keeva Young-Wright, associate executive director of NWH and president of the NWH Foundation. “These four mission-driven leaders have longstanding relationships with the hospital and, as Foundation board members, will provide great insight to fundraising initiatives that advance patient programs, lifesaving equipment and technology, and capital improvements.”

All new members will serve three-year terms. Dr. Alpert, an internist specializing in adult internal medicine at Optum Care, formerly CareMount Medical, has served since 2013 on the NWH President’s Council, an advisory board designed to help the hospital address community needs, and said she is excited about her new role.

“I am very enthusiastic about this opportunity to serve the community through participation on the NWH Foundation Board,” said Dr. Alpert. “Our hospital is singularly focused and uniquely positioned to address the medical and emotional needs of all residents of our community, and I am honored to contribute to this endeavor.”

Ms. Hervey is a longtime philanthropist, devoting her time and resources to many local organizations including the Westchester Land Trust, John Jay Homestead, the Community Center of Northern Westchester, Caramoor Center for Music and the Arts, and Friends of Karen, where she served as board president.

“My passion for improving the lives of others, especially within the community I live, has been paramount to me throughout my life,” said Ms. Hervey, who remains on the board of Friends of Karen, a nonprofit that provides support to families across the tri-state area with a child facing life-threatening illness. “I have no doubt that my skills in finance, strategic management, and governance will help Northern Westchester Hospital achieve its goal to improve the wellbeing of the community.”

Dr. Messina, the chief of general surgery and a bariatric surgeon at NWH, brings an extensive background in leadership to the board. She serves on several oversight committees, providing strategy and development insight to maintain top-quality care and patient safety at the hospital.

“My training to continuously improve my skills as a surgeon perfectly prepares me to support the mission of the Northern Westchester Hospital Foundation board to improve the quality of care patients receive at this amazing hospital,” said Dr. Messina, who is also part of Optum Care. “I am privileged and eager to add impact to this board’s mission.”

Dr. Reimers, director of the cardiac catheterization lab, brings 27 years of experience as a board-certified cardiologist and interventional cardiologist. The catheterization lab is part of the Seema Boesky Heart Center at NWH, an extension of the renowned cardiac catheterization program at Lenox Hill Hospital in Manhattan, which consistently earned national distinction under his leadership. 

“In my career I have never found a place as unique and special as Northern Westchester Hospital,” said Dr. Reimers. “The team spirit, quality of patient care as well as patient experience are exceptional here. It is an honor to become a Foundation board member and to have a role in the ongoing success of this hospital.”
