5 Easy and Affordable Getaways From New York City

The North Fork is home to a lively farming community, so expect to find lots of produce stands along the roads. From plump plums and sweet berries to juicy peaches and freshly picked strawberries, you'll be in fruit heaven. I suggest coming here with an empty stomach. There are numerous locally owned mom-and-pop restaurants cranking out delicious dishes, making this area a food-lover's dream.

Side note: There is even a food truck that serves a "grown-up" grilled cheese. As you can imagine, it is a melty indulgence, to say the least.
