If you’ve been through Wainscott lately, \u00a0you’ve probably noticed there’s a whole lot of something going on at the former location of Georgica and Saracen restaurants. \u00a0 The location is now the home of Osteria Salina and the inside has been given face lift that would make Cher green with envy! \u00a0Its been a much needed change for the 130 year old building that was more recently the home of ruckus night clubs catering to the hard partying “bottle and banquette” crowd. \u00a0 \u00a0Instead neighbors now have a traditional Sicilian restaurant in one of the most charming locations around. \u00a0 In fact, if you ask me it looks like they spent a pretty penne to make it look good! \u00a0Sorry for the pun.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

The restaurant which was formally located on School Street in Bridgehampton has now been expanded by purveyor Tim Gaglio and his wife Cinzia (the chef) into a larger 225 seat venue overlooking Georgica Pond. \u00a0 The menu will remain the same and feature old favorites like Charred Octopus, Polpette (amazing italian meatballs), Mezzi Rigitoni alla Siciliana, fresh seafood specials but with the addition of pizzas cooked in the brick oven that was a staple back when the restaurant was “Sapore di Mare.” \u00a0 \u00a0 If you don’t remember back that far then you certainly don’t know the reason Route 27 is so close to the site!? \u00a0Well I’ll tell you, it’s owed to two feuding brothers, one who designed highways for the state and the other who owned a house in Wainscott!<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n

Well enough about the location, the food which comes with a Sicilian pedigree (Cinzia comes from a long line of Italian restauranteurs) that goes all the way back to Sorra Italy has been earning raves from local celebs like Billy Joel, Alan Alda and Howard Stern to name a few. \u00a0 In fact, I bet next door neighbor Ron Perlman will soon swing by for some Bucatini con Sarde … the smells will get ’em and I heard he loves to walk everywhere! \u00a0 There’s no doubt it will be attracting the same crowd plus a few new ones with the expanded dining room. \u00a0 Osteria Salina will open it’s doors quietly this Thursday (5\/21) night at 5pm and be open for business year round. \u00a0 It’s a great addition to the area and if you have any doubt they’re aiming for a different crowd than the last establishment, stop by on Sunday’s from 1 to 9pm when they’ll be serving traditional Sophia Loren sized “family style” dinners. \u00a0 \u00a0If you want a reservation and my guess is your going to need them… check out the restaurant on OPENTABLE.COM<\/p>\n

As any real estate on the east end will tell you, dealing with Summer rentals is never easy. \u00a0 \u00a0This Friday will no doubt too be another hair raising experience for agents all over as tenants start to move into their seasonal rentals. \u00a0Yes, I’ll soon be getting calls about defective toasters, noisy neighbors and even the occasional call asking for an address (write it down before you go out drinking).<\/p>\n

Well it’s a few years later and now enough time has passed to tell a tale I from a few years ago when one tenant called me complaining about the wireless Internet. \u00a0 I explained I wasn’t an expert but I would swing by and take a look. \u00a0 \u00a0Apparently the code for the wifi wasn’t working and I thought I’d give it a shot. \u00a0When I arrived I input the code and bing! \u00a0It worked! \u00a0 What was the problem? \u00a0 Well, when I gave them the code in the e mail I wrote “the password is case sensitive xyz.” \u00a0Yes, you got it… they wrote “CASE SENSITIVE” when inputting the code. \u00a0By the way, English was their first language and it was a $200k+ seasonal rental!\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0Only in the Hamptons!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
