…is just plain wrong.
The definition of a “power lunch” or “power drink” place is a venue where well-known people go to discuss business or just to hang out. From that definition, the Beverly Hills Polo Lounge is still quite relevant. George Hamilton goes there. Stephen Fry eats there. John Mayer hangs there with Andy Cohen. Cameron Diaz lights up the room there. Michael Lohan talked about his daughter Lindsay Lohan there.
And I know that because I’ve seen all of them there myself.
My Now Famous Moment At The Beverly Hills Polo Lounge
I’m not going to recount it in full here, but my famous moment at the Beverly Hills Polo Lounge involved not just seeing Alec Baldwin, but also winding up in the same breakfast party he was in – for a moment.
It was the hilarious, wine-fueled idea of my lovely lady friend who’s name I will not use to crash a party he was in. We did, and for about a minute.
Stay tuned.
