Why some people just hate the Hamptons Buzz!

Well it's been a few weeks since I sat down and blogged but I'm back after a brief hiatus. It was the end of the summer here and I just needed some time to breathe and enjoy the east end. The crazy crowds are gone and the planes,

helicopters and sea planes have gone south for the winter. Speaking of the air traffic. A group of local citizens are calling themselves the "QUIET SKIES COALITION." Their mission is to do something about the ever increasing air traffic on the east end. According the group summer traffic at East Hampton Airport is about the same as Islip! Which according to the group is all the more absurd because it's a "FAA UNCONTROLLED AIRPORT" subject to no local regulation. Considering the volume they have, they believe it's a disaster waiting to happen or at the very least get worse. There is also some concern about the property values of those who lie in the path of these planes and Sikorsky helicopters. Anyway, if you want more information about the Quiet Skies Coalition you can e mail them at info@quietskiescoalition.org or visit the website www.quietskiescoalition.org.


Meanwhile, most of this summer I have avoided the new Mexican restaurant Agave in Bridgehampton. Well I've since gone their twice and I will say the talk about it is a

little unfair. While it's not Rosa Mexicana, it is a definite improvement over the food at Blue Parrot. The chips were freshly fried, the service friendly and responsive. I've tried the enchiladas and the fajitas at Agave and I'll say both were pretty good. The chicken fajitas were my personal favorite and were perfectly done with a generous portion. So while I can't say you should run to Agave, I will say if you want a casual night out with some good Mexican food head there and just enjoy it for what it is... a decent night out in the Hamptons.
