Our Anniversary celebration was wonderful! Dinner at Fraiche was really delicious. I had a lovely piece of monkfish with mashed potatoes to die for, and my husband had some oysters on the half shell and a plate of freshly-made pasta with a super-rich sauce I thought was terrific.
No photos of the food because we were so hungry I couldn’t stop long enough to snap!
It was — and always is — nice to get away for an evening with my husband.
And for an added bonus, we had major sightings — right in the restaurant, just 2 tables away: Ed Begley, Jr. and his wife, and joining them was David Mamet! It was awesome: they actually fought over the bill!
Mr. Mamet has a play running right in downtown Culver City at the Kirk Douglas theater — and he was probably on his way there after dinner. I wished I’d had the nerve to stop by the table. I wanted to tell him that I had worked on a movie version of his play American Buffalo about 12 years ago in Providence. It starred Dustin Hoffman and Dennis Franz and is the topic for another post.
Although I will say this: That movie is the reason I was in People Magazine.

Nice dinner, nice sightings! Congrats again.
I am actually leaving to move back to Houston, TX next week…I am going to MISS the restaurants in L.A. SOOOOOOO much…I hope I see more from ya…to keep me posted!
