So, it’s been a good six months since I’ve put pen to paper or finger to key pad for this blog. \u00a0 Did you miss me? \u00a0 \u00a0I bet you did.<\/p>\n

So what’s happened since we last connected here? \u00a0Here’s the quick update on everything.. with links too!<\/p>\n

Vine Street Cafe is coming to East Hampton in the old Cafe Max space. \u00a0Construction is currently under way with an opening target date of early May. \u00a0 \u00a0Via Curbed<\/p>\n

CVS has erected a new monument in East Hampton\u00a0at the site of the former bowling alley, now known by me as “Twin Peaks.” This is for obvious reasons. \u00a0 \u00a0Damn, I need a good cup of Joe and some cherry pie. \u00a0 Old link from 27East.<\/a><\/p>\n

Cue creepy Angelo Badalamenti music.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Speaking of bowling, EHIT has broken ground – that’s East Hampton Indoor Tennis for you couch potatoes – on a new mini-golf course and indoor bowling alley. \u00a0They’ll also have a bar there too… so you actually don’t care when you throw that gutter ball and putt the ball out-of-bounds.\u00a0via Curbed<\/a><\/p>\n

Grey Gardens has hit the market for $20,000,000. \u00a0 Cat food and crazy relatives are sold separately. \u00a0NYTIMES<\/a><\/p>\n

Actor Neil Patrick and his husband chef David Burke of Fabrique fame bought in East Hampton. \u00a0Err… wait… Who is David Burtka? \u00a0Oh.\u00a0BehindtheHedges.com<\/a><\/p>\n

Moby’s in East Hampton has been beached. \u00a0 Eleven Madison Park will be opening a pop up called “EMP Summer House” in the former whale of a property. \u00a0 \u00a0I’m not sure but this sounds like a dangerous place for folks with a pacemaker. \u00a0 LLNYC.COM<\/a><\/p>\n

The former Fresh will soon be pushing naan when Saaz Of Southampton opens up a second outlet in the former Bridgehampton Eatery. \u00a0 \u00a0The NYT gave it a good review (google it…I’m not giving you the link) and so have many of my friends. \u00a0 I just can’t touch the stuff since that one night with Jack Daniels when I lived about the Bombay Cafe in 1989. \u00a0HamptonsChatter\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n

Cheers in Amagansett Square.<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

The Meeting House in Amagansett hosted their last town gathering. \u00a0Wolffer Kitchen will soon be howling in the Square location. \u00a0 Look for a similar….slash that… DIFFERENT\u00a0menu to their already successful Sag Harbor Outlet. \u00a0 Look for an opening sometime in May. \u00a0No word yet on\u00a0how the wine list will look. \u00a0 WolfferKitchen<\/a><\/p>\n

The former B.Smith’s in Sag Harbor which sold last year to billionaire Ron Perlman is\u00a0getting a makeover and will soon open as an “Outback Steakhouse.” \u00a0 \u00a0The restaurant chain is expected to… wait err… what? \u00a0 Le Bilbo what? \u00a0Le Bilboquet?! \u00a0 \u00a0Really? \u00a0 \u00a0Good news for all of you clammering for a good\u00a0Triangle De Thon Au Poivre Noir! \u00a0Le Bilboquet is opening in Sag Harbor! \u00a0 By the way, how did Harlow do there?\u00a0\u00a0 HamptonsMagazine<\/a><\/p>\n

Gone… forgotten?<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n

Finally, The General Home Store in East Hampton is apparently under renovation. \u00a0 Paper now covers the windows where there are all the wine glasses and pricey trash cans your heart desires.. … THE general Home Store. \u00a0Across the drive way from Walbaums. \u00a0 Next to Fierro’s pizza. \u00a0 You know, on\u00a0the corner? \u00a0 It’s next to Gubbins’ too? \u00a0 $200 trivets? \u00a0Whatever…. forget it. \u00a0 Crickets.<\/p>\n

Now this is all out of the way, I can go back to making Hamptons blogging great again.<\/p>\n
