SURF LODGE
Montauk’s wildly popular Surf Lodge has been taking some heat from the Town of East Hampton, resulting in the new owners, Montauk Properties, paying a ridiculus $100,000 fine. But that’s all in the past if you ask maitre d’ Jayma Cardosa.
In a recent interview with The East Hampton Star, Cardosa describes her own ambitions for running the club now that she has a fresh start.
From trunk shows to concerts, there will never be a dull moment this weekend in the happening Hamptons. And the best part? Most of these are charity events, so not only will you be having a blast shopping, dancing, and attending concerts, you'll also be helping a cause. Here our are top picks for this weekend.
Friday August 26th
The Bridgehampton Antiques & Design Fair

The fair will have an extensive range of unique antiques, jewelry and decorative home accents. From Asian to Mid-Century Modern, these top-notch dealers will cater to your every style need. Admission is $5
Nothing screams summer like a dance block party with stellar food and music. Finger on the Pulse (the twin team of Darin & Greg Bresnitz) brings this to you August 6th at City Winery.
What makes the food stellar? Only that they will be the creations of 10 standout NYC chefs: Sam Mason (Tailor / Empire Mayo / Lady Jays), Phillip Kirschen-Clark (Vandaag), Christina Tosi (Momofuku Milk Bar), Sam Talbot (Imperial No 9 / Surf Lodge), NoahBernamoff (Mile End), Thomas Kelly & David Schillace (Mexicue), Jenny McCoy (Craft), TimSullivan (Jazz at Lincoln Center's Dizzy's Club Coca-Cola), Daniel Holzman (The MeatballShop) and Oliver Kremer & Tyler Lohman (Dos Toros). Not too shabby.

Hamptons
I went out East this past weekend. I went through the process of getting a car from Hertz, with GPS of course - they call it never lost, headed out east early, early Saturday morning. I stayed in East Hampton on the North Shore where it's easy to get lost and drive in circles. The occasion, because I needed one of those days, was a friend’s Birthday party and yes she’s hot!
Saturday was gorgeous. The perfect weather, sunny and cool. Laid out by the pool and soaked up some rays waiting for a car load of mannequins to arrive. Got the pool and jacuzzi ready and headed to the store to stock up on libations and nibbles. This should be called pool time. It's like the coffee room at the office where people gather and mingle in a semi-work atmosphere, except your having a cocktail and wearing next to nothing.
