Chef Arie Pavlou, co-author of The Congressman’s Wife,
Presents Contemporary Art in a Historic Setting
at Bistro Ete

Chef Arie Pavlou and his wife Liz Cordano present the artwork of Clayton and Parker Calvert at Bistro Été. The bistro’s colonial-period dining room will feature contemporary paintings and abstract fine art photography, creating the perfect blend of visual and culinary art. The collaboration was arranged by friend and art representative Mark Anthony Posner, who stated that “the menu is to die for and the art creates a spectacular ambiance.”

Escargot, Striped Bass with Truffle Sauce and Aged Steaks are just a few of Chef Arie’s classic dishes foodies can indulge in at Bistro Eté. Although the Cypriot born Chef studied in Paris and trained in the South of France, his menu flirts with flavors from all over the world. Chef Arie has also written two cookbooks, Foie Gras and Soup — as well as the thrilling romance novel, The Congressman’s Wife.

Book Review: The Congressman’s Wife

Arie Pavlou, chef arie, The Congressman's Wife

“You need to stop fighting this. It’s bigger than both of us.”

We are happy to share the latest review of The Congressman’s Wife, this time by Stacy Dermont of the iconic Hamptons’ website, Dan’s Papers…  

the congressmans wife cover

And now for the review:

Long Island author Aristodemos Pavlou is better known as “Chef Arie” to many. Few would guess that this accomplished culinarian had a trilogy of romance novels up his sleeve. But while reading The Congressman’s Wife (Red Sky Presents New York, 2016), much is revealed about this complex man.

Perhaps Pavlou is a “romantic” in the classical sense that he rejects established norms and conventions. Just this month he opened his own restaurant, Bistro Été, in the former Robert’s space in Water Mill! But, actually, his finely tuned cooking skills hew to the traditional French and Mediterranean cuisines. The mastery he brings to his work is often what sets it apart.

Why was Pavlou moved to write these books? He says, “I have so many great stories!” Quite a few strands of a rich life are tied up in this first book in the series. And the Veuve Clicquot flows like water…One might wonder if a passage like “He knew the first time he’d looked into her eyes that she was for him, that somehow she would complete him, like he’d get back a part of him he hadn’t even known was missing,” could have been inspired by his relationship with his wife Liz, whom he married in February.  You can read the entire review by clicking here…

Grandpa Bernie's Bedtime Stories, kid lit

A Delightful Collection of 20 Tales by First-time Author and ‘Real-life’ Grandpa, Bernard Ditchik

“I started spinning these magical tales for my own children, and then many years later, my children’s children. Time after time, they were mesmerized and engaged, and always asked for more! As they began growing up, one of my daughters said, ‘Dad, you have so many stories. I think other children would like to hear them.’ And that’s how this book came to be.” -Grandpa Bernie
