NY/ L.I. themed Items for Welcome Hotel Bag

Hey ya'll!

I've already purchased cute bags for our 160 out of town guests.

But I'm thinking of what to put in the bags that relate to Long Island as a welcome for our guests from Texas, the Midwest, Seattle, etc.

I've found North Fork Chips, Entemann's Cookie boxes and am thinking of including a CD of LI artists including Mariah Carey, Billy Joel, Brian Setzer.

Any other ideas for food items to include, even if they are NYC items?

Thanks :)

Re: NY/ L.I. themed Items for Welcome Hotel Bag

definitely wine from LI...but it may be expensive.

You can also go to museums in your area (or NYC) and they will probably have long island/nyc merchandise.

And Long Island is known for its oysters and fishing in general....in the 1700s and 1800s, it was known for ducks and potatoes
