Instead of sitting in the Science Center all afternoon or hunting through Lamont for the most comfortable chair, students should go back to their rooms, curl up in their comfy beds and sleep.

Regulars at the year-old hot spot dig into Vietnamese spring rolls with seared, black sesame seed-coated swordfish, or rum-painted grouper with a tangy-sweet mango mojo and crispy plantain curl.

Sean (Mark Lamos) and David (Bruce Davison), a middle-aged couple, watch a hunky guy stroll past them on a Fire Island beach, and their toes curl with wry pleasure.
