A tablehopper reader spotted Jeremy Sisto at Vik's Chaat House last weekend. He was reportedly “lunching with some friends and/or family, looking downright hot!” Meow to that, sister. More Drew Barrymore and Justin Long sightings from last weekend! When her 20-person posse left Bar Jules after their…

I had two tablehopper readers write in about spotting Vince Vaughn at Gary Danko last Friday April 24th. Sean Penn was on the town Saturday night, both at the Clift’s Redwood Room with a group of friends, and at RN74 Saturday night with Matt Gonzalez (former mayoral candidate/supervisor/…

John Cleese dined at One Market Restaurant, and was reportedly a “delightful guest, funny and gracious.” He ate a lighter version of the mushroom potpie. How, you wonder? He ate it without the pastry top. A tablehoppin’ reader spotted Forest Whitaker sipping a cappuccino at Douce France cafe in Palo…
