Cindy Rinfret's fave spots in Greenwich

I interviewed Greenwich local Cindy Rinfret on her favorite spots in Greenwich. Why do you want to know Cindy's picks? She's not your average local. As the author of Classic Greenwich Style (Rizzoli) and the chosen interior designer to such local celebrities as Tommy Hilfiger, Cindy is an expert on the best that Greenwich has to offer. She is always being asked by clients and friends on where she got her jewelry, her hair done, or who catered her latest fabulous party. Here is Cindy's ultimate list of the resources in Greenwich that you need to know about:

• Favorite Restaurant:

Polpo is a classic. Great people-watching and dancing on Friday nights!

• Hair Salon:

I love Lea for color – blondes do have more fun! Michael and Margot are great for a cut and blow-dry.

• Sushi:

Best sushi and waiters in town! Kokoro is great for lunch.

• Yummy Photography Cakes:

Email your favorite picture and they will put it on a cake for you.

• Event Planning/Catering: Jon Cutler

Always there for effortless dinner parties and events. He also has a cute wait staff!

Make any gift special with their custom engraving. I love their St. Christopher enamel necklaces, “The Patron Saint of Travel” – you have to get these for all your loved ones.

Alvaro is a master of gems and jewelry. Hill will make anything for you! What a talent!

• Outdoor Furniture & Home Accessories:

Margaret is the best! She will always help you find what you need to accessorize and furnish your home. If not…go to and see Hilary and Jim!!
