Vineyard Fever
Rumor in Martha’s Vineyard is that the Obamas will vacation
there this summer, and residents are guessing that the first couple will
head to State Road, in West Tisbury. The new locavore restaurant, from chef-owners Mary
and Jackson Kenworth (who became beloved by Vineyarders when they owned
the Sweet Life Café), is said to be backed by a powerful crew,
including Comcast chairman Brian Roberts and former News Corp. president
Peter Chernin and his wife, Megan, and was designed by the
Obama-appointed White House decorator, Michael Smith. Callers trying to
score a reservation are greeted by yet another bigwig with D.C. ties: That’s Vernon Jordan on the answering
machine.
