Ok, remember that fancy men's store Belhause in Wainscott. Yeah, they were trying to be the Fred Segal or Jeffrey of the Hamptons and it just didn't work. Well back in December of 2009, the show was loaded up and shipped out in the middle of the night. Literally!
Well, the space has now been occupied. So, is it a good Mexican restuarant? A Pottery Barn? A gourmet market like Whole Foods or Trader Joes? Is it anything we really want in the Hamptons!? Wishful thinking folks, it's a Sleepy's! YES... ANOTHER SLEEPY'S!!! Now, by my count that makes 5 for the Hamptons area from Hampton Bays to East Hampton!! I know there is a need with rentals for new mattresses every now and then but do we really need 5!!!? Maybe folks in the Hamptons are sluttier and more promiscuous than I thought. I have visions of mattress filled rooms with weekly bacchinals all season long! Of course we need more mattresses! By the way, I bought all of the mattresses at my house at... you guessed it, Sleepy's! If you dont' have a Sleepy's near you, visit them at www.sleepys.com
Now a quick note of caution. I want to first say, I love Twice Upon A Bagel. They have some of the best bagels in town and their sandwiches are pretty awesome. The problem I have is with their cupcakes, they're two for two with me. Both times I bought cupcakes there (and I'm not talking buying the day olds) they were stale! They were like little confectionary rocks with sprinkles!! Come on guys, good
bagels... great tuna salad... great salmon.. YOU CAN DO BETTER. So my advice is buy the bagels but skip the cupcakes. By the way, please don't say it. I know I shouldn't be buying cupcakes anyway.

Better bagels - and whitefish - at
Goldberg's in Southampton - THEY should have taken over Sean Bell's Bellhaus !

I, too, am tired of seeing all these Sleepy’s around the towns. How (yawn) boring….
