With Martha Stewart-like grandmothers (albeit Italian & Native American), Deborah Gavito, Counter’s Proprietor / Wine & Beverage Director, learned everything from cooking with seasonal vegetables to the secrets of weeds such as dandelion and milkweed. "Working at the Union Square Greenmarket (in downtown Manhattan) gave me an appreciation for fresh, local, sustainable farm products; and made me understand the importance of supporting the dwindling number of small family farmers.” Creating the only earth friendly wine and martini bar of its kind in New York City has been Deborah's passion. She loves sharing her knowledge & love of organic & biodynamic wines – and the organic martinis & spirits – that COUNTER. is known for.
