Best Food Around

Watch Hill "Foodies"

The President and founder of Watch Hill Properties, Peter Catalano, and his wife, Dana Catalano, are "foodies" who know all the best places to dine in the Watch Hill and surrounding areas.

"We have been fortunate to have traveled to many countries including Italy, France, Turkey, Brazil, and Greece, to mention a few, where we experienced the diversities and specialties of the different cultures.  Don't forget the United States, talk about Napa Valley, New York, Miami Beach and other incredible cities."
​
Dana was born in Milan, Italy and has become a successful chef in her own right after owning the Historic Watch Hill Inn for 25 years before the restaurant and hotel were converted to residential condominiums.

Peter was born in New York City and has traveled with his wife Dana to world class venues for great food and wine, sharing magical moments together. He never enters the kitchen, but enjoys fabulous cuisine in great settings. As a real estate developer and architect, he knows his food, wines, environments, and service. "High demand results in great experiences."
