Mark SealBut you did manage to escape long enough to work out. Where
would you go after Crunch, if you didn't go back to your
apartment? I would go to brunch or lunch and eat at a lot of
the places that are actually still my joints. There's this place
called Quality. It's on Third Street. The decor is very clean and
simple and very unpretentious, and they have delicious omelets and
salads. Everything tastes really fresh. They have the most
incredible biscuits you have ever tasted in your life. You just put
the butter on ... my fiancé feels like they don't even need butter.
The biscuits are so good. I found Joan's on Third, which is another
place I really love. I eat there, like, three times a week. It's
really embarrassing. It's a little gourmet deli/restaurant. They
have a huge array of
food. They have sandwiches with mortadella,
and they have curried chicken, salmon, and delicious salads. And
then they sell, you know, wines and mustards and jams and olive
oil. Whenever I do a party, they cater it.
Is there a hotel you like? I love going to Beverly Hills
Hotel, to the little
Polo Lounge and the little diner downstairs,
where you can get a really yummy turkey burger called the
Novogroder. Oh yeah, Novogroder cheeseburger with pickles. I don't
know why they call it that, but it's delicious. It's just so juicy.
It's so many different tastes all together. The Beverly Hills Hotel
is very old-school Hollywood. I always have a weird feeling of
being an old movie star there. I feel like I should be wearing a
little
tennis outfit, and I should be about to go play tennis. It's
all salmon and green. I like the Polo Lounge at night. It's a big
kind of landmark for me, because David [Benioff, her fiancé] lives
up in the canyon, so whenever I was going on a date with him, you
know, I would always drive by the hotel. And when we were on our
first date, we went there after going to a restaurant called
Nishimura, so it has sentimental meaning.
