February Swanking - Oscar Shorts at the Egyptian - February 24, 4:00 pm - Page 3

We'll be there. With the showing starting at 4:00, that's plenty early that getting into Hollywood shouldn't be an issue.

Oh, it's just that I'd seriously be tempted to stay. Back when the shindig was at the Dot Chandler, we used to camp out overnight in the bleachers and then watch the red carpet arrivals the next day. It was a blast. I did it about four or five times, and it was fun each and every time.

With it so close to the Chinese nowadays, this would be my chance to shout "Zelda! Ooooooh, Zelda!!! (ahem, from Singin' in the Rain.)

We will probably take the train up from LB is anyone wants to join us.

Yes, Hollywood will be a bit difficult to get into that evening - and we should probably decide on a restaurant sooner rather than later so we can make a ressie. I think the later hours are going to get incresingly crazy.

Sooooo, restaurant votes? (Sorry I can't do another poll here.)

My thoughts:

I've been to Cafe Des Artistises and it was nice, funky and cool but it's been a while and I'd love to go back.

I've frequented Micelli's to I'm not too thrilled with eating there again.

Geisha House was REALLY good the one time I went there. We would HAVE to make a ressie there.

I haven't tried Lucky Devils.

The drink options are a whatever to me.

I will be there and up for whatever. I've not eaten at any of those mentioned. So...

NA, I apologize in advance for this post.

I just tried to pronounce "Cafe Des Artistises" out loud and am now giggling at my desk.

Not Afraid · 01-31-2007, 11:32 AM

Shut up.

Yay a Saturday night. Don't have to pick up the kid so I can actually stay for dinner.

I'm going to give Andrew a call to reserve tickets for our group The current number is 7. Is there anyone who has NOT responded and would like to go to the Shorts? If so, please respond to the poll ASAP so I can get a decent count.
