New Englander needs convincing, but we came across a few new reasons to book a summer escape to Nantucket or Martha’s Vineyard. For starters, National Geographic recently named Nantucket the “best island in the world” — ahead of awe-inspiring paradises in Polynesia and the Mediterranean. Impressive. But on a local-interest level, we’re jazzed for the June opening of MET on MAIN (38 Main Street, Nantucket, 508.325.5111), the fifth location of restaurateur Kathy Sidell’s Boston-area restaurant HOTgroup, which includes MET Back Bay. Expect the new outpost to boast Moroccan-inspired décor and a menu that combines European café fare with island flair — complete with a tartare and raw bar with rotating selections and a toppings-filled build-your-own pancake bar. The opening marks a homecoming of sorts for Sidell: the restaurant inhabits the former site of the Sweet Shop, an ice creamery where she had her first job. (Aww!) Summertime nostalgia is also at play on the Vineyard, which is ramping up for JAWSFEST: The Tribute, scheduled for August 9–12. Often regarded as the first summer blockbuster, Steven Spielberg’s 1975 flick about a killer shark was filmed on Martha’s Vineyard. So this commemorative series will feature panel discussions with those involved in the movie, reenactments, a screening (of course), and shark-conservation programs, among other events.

So while we await Room (138 Cambridge Street, Boston, word on posthumous album projects, we’ll at 857.350.3344).

And while we’re digging a party scene. Thankfully, no one threw all of Perry’s preppy summer looks for men and the baby out with the bathwater.) The Tip women, we have a soft spot for the pieces that Tap Room will likewise have a casual vibe mark Winehouse’s last collaboration with the — picture a 100-seat dining room with brand: sweater dresses, pedal pushers, and natural wood floors, flat-screen TVs, and bowling bags inspired by ’50s Americana and a wall of retractable garage-style glass Art Deco.

The titular “tip” nods to the array of inventively marinated proteins: steak tips, turkey tips, chicken tips, and lamb tips, plus experimental options like elk tips and alligator tips. (Even side dishes, like wild-boar bacon-chive potatoes, have us roaring.) The “tap” refers to the beverage program, dominated by craft bourbons and 36 draft beers — nearly half of which are local brews. We expect Tip Tap’s business to boom. HOT HANDS Looking to pay homage to the Hub’s brightest talents? Then give a standing O to the Hand Wall at Theatre 1 (200 Stuart Street, Boston), the reincarnation of the Stuart Street Playhouse that’s part of the new Revere Hotel. Unveiled in late May, the wall- of-fame-style installation features creepy- but-cool plaster castings of hands, each belonging to a local notable from the arts world. The inaugural honorees are American Repertory Theater artistic director Diane Paulus, bestselling Wicked author Gregory Maguire, Boston Ballet artistic director Mikko Nissinen, and A&E reporter Joyce Kulhawik, a longtime fixture on the Boston media scene. As for coming attractions? Conductor Keith Lockhart will be cast once the Boston Pops season wraps, and there’s buzz that a certain rock “idol” will swing by to lend a hand this summer. Keep us posted, guys.
