There's a word in Italian: fata. It means fairy.
And Faye — the name of our co-owner — means "gift of God" in Greek.
So they called it La Fata's Eatery. Because some things in life aren't coincidence. They're fate.
Rakesh Nayak grew up in a small village in India. He slept in a basement in Queens. He trained under European chefs. He learned that food isn't fuel — it's ceremony.
Now he brings that ceremony to 19 North St, Middletown. Imported prosciutto, curated Italian wines, artisan sandwiches made to order. Orange County's only Italian wine dispenser.
Come in. The fairy tale is real.
