In September, if Marc Orfaly is asked to write a paper documenting what he did on his summer vacation, he’s certainly not going to be lacking material. Pigalle and Marco’s chef/owner has teamed up with Danielle de Benedictis, owner of Nantucket’s Summer House, for a tasty summer 2008 partnership. Now Orfaly is executive chef and oversees operations at both the Summer House (17 Ocean Avenue, Nantucket, 508.257.9976) and the Beachside Bistro (17 Ocean Avenue, Nantucket, 508.257.4542), two popular island hangs. Treat yourself to contemporary cuisine and upscale hospitality at the Summer House, or enjoy the Beachside’s unpretentious food and unrivaled on-the-sand location — either way, you’ll be in the capable hands of Orfaly, a four-time James Beard Award nominee. Sounds like a hot summer to us.
