"For Sunday tranquility, The Conference House in Tottenville offers outdoor activities and an exploration of U.S. history. The stone manor was constructed by English immigrant Captain Christopher Billopp in or around 1680 and hosted the peace conference in 1776. When Badalamenti goes, he packs a sunset picnic, his angling gear, or sometimes both, and indulges at the park. 'When I was a boy in Sicily, I would go [fishing] with my brother-in-law, who was a professional fisherman. I have so many fond memories, and Conference House just takes me back and calms me for the upcoming week.' He recommends filling a basket with fresh mozzarella (of course), primo sale (sheep’s milk cheese), and homemade caponata."
