The Next Surf Lodge?

Ever hear of the Ram's Head Inn in Shelter Island? Didn't think so. Despite its current anonymity, this stately estate and inn could be the next Surf Lodge and have Shelter Island's residents cursing Richie Notar and Andre Balazs for years to come if they wind up making a play. In his recent interview with Blackbook, Mr. Nobu let slip that he "was looking at Ram’s Head in Shelter Island with Andre Balazs and at
a place down the block. You want an oasis that’s achievable to go for a
weekend." By a place down the block, we are guessing they looked at the not so stately Chequit Inn. This would be Andre's second Shelter Island property (Sunset Beach), but with the Montauk locals cursing the coming of the Surf Lodge, we aren't sure how kindly the Shelters would feel about a Nobu/AB tag team. We'll keep our ears to the ground to keep you in the loop.

Balaz looked at this last year too, and the year before that, they are asking mid-teens, too much.....
not to mention Ram Island Residents won't stand for it, the Eklunds are attempting to lease to some slimer who wants to put a rehab in the inn and the whole isalnd (Ram & Shelter) are all up in arms...it's all over the papers.....if the town committee aren't going to allow a quiet rehab on serine Ram Island, there is no way in hell they will allow a balaz-like establishment...
DBTH,
I know you probably don't care but everyone's favorite midwestern leech is smack talking again.. That chick really irks me, she is much like every slutty catty chick at my high school.
