Inside Nello Summertimes: The $27 Cocktail Makes A Comeback

[Photos via Rob Rich] Summertime feasting, patio lounging, and vino sipping has officially returned to Nello so head to Southampton, order a $27 cocktail (or the affordable $18 bellini), and “Tell Nello You’re Here.” Last Saturday, the Italian eatery celebrated Memorial Day Weekend playing host to Hamptonite-scenesters who opted for an evening of spending at the notoriously expensive restaurant to ring in the summer. Guests included the likes of Elizabeth Fekkai, Bobby Hernreich, Ron Burkhardt, Jenny Norberg, and even Nello Balan. More pictures from inside Nello Summertimes below…

The GofG Hampton’s Guide To The Weekend

[Photo via KrillWasHere] Okay, we know it’s the weekend after a huge holiday and most of you are still recovering. Even though hopping on the Jitney might not be appealing to you so soon after one of the busiest weekends of the summer, tough it out and join the GofG Hamptons crew as summer in the East End continues…

Nick Cannon performs at AXE Lounge
Where: AXE Lounge at Dune
Why: The AXE wearing Hamptons crowd partied at Dune every night during Memorial Day Weekend so we’re hoping a packed house can be expected this weekend as well. Nick Cannon is expected to perform and we’re excited to see who he brings. Mariah Carey perhaps? LMFAO was a crowd favorite last weekend so Nick has some tough competition.
When: Friday, 10pm

Interview With Steven Alan: On His New Store In The Hamptons, Another Birthday, And What It Means To Be A “Hipster Icon”

[Happy Birthday Steven Alan!]

Pop-up shops seem to be… well, popping up all over the place this summer. But one we’re really excited about is Steven Alan’s beachy casual boutique, located on 52 Newton Lane, in East Hampton. The larger-than-life designer literally does it all (showroom manager, jet-setter, dad) - including opening up a store in three days. No wonder he was struggling to hold on to his voice by the time I got him on the phone yesterday. After meeting him on Sunday, it was a pleasure talking to him again - the guy who has been called a “hipster icon”, and designer I’ve been following since I went in search of the perfect button down, is about as laid-back and cool as his clothing. Here he talks to G of G about the pop-up shop, his Hampton favorites, his Birthday, and just about everything else in between. More »

What’s The Real Deal With The Harbor Club?

[Photos by ROB RICH] Rumors today have it that the Harbor Club, the newest player in nightlife land out East, is taking their crew and moving to The Georgica. After the Fire Marshal busted their party last weekend and discovered they had no license to be there, we assumed they wouldn’t be in the same space, but were (and are) confident that David Marino, Ben Grieff and James Cruickshank would get their act together and figure out where to take the party.  These are the guys responsible for much of the success of places like Bellas in the city, Dune, and Stereo back in the day. Wherever they end up, the prep schoolers and DJ Nick Cohen fans are sure to follow. But, it’s NOT going to be at the Georgica. But don’t take it from us, take it from The Georgica’s Matt LevineMore »

“Best $2k I Ever Spent!” Birthdays At Surf Lodge!

[Lauren Biller gets a birthday kiss from Jon Gershman] Go HERE for more photos by ROB RICH!

We have saved one of the bests for last this week, and now, it’s time to take a look through last weekend shots of our beloved Surf Lodge.  A fitting Montauk local to celebrating your Birthday at–even if your friends may be the first to tell you it’s the reason Montauk is being RUINED. How could you care about that anyway when you are shoving your face with the delicious dishes created by chef Sam Talbot and listening to live music on the deck surrounding some of the most amazing sunsets out east? Surf Lodge, we’ve been waiting all winter for you!
