My first REAL celebrity sighting!

So as I mentioned in a previous post, I went to Nobu for Restaurant Week last night with some friends. The food was good and all that, but the most important and notable part was that I finally got to see a real celebrity up close.

My friend Chetesh nudged me on our way out and said "Hey that's a Lakers player over there." I don't know a lot of Lakers players, but I thought I'd ask which player it was. It turns out it's Pau Gasol, one of the only two Lakers I recognize (the other being Kobe, of course). I didn't recognize him though -- I've only seen a few games, and in those games, he's always running around sweaty with a headband with his hair flopping around. At Nobu, he actually looked like an awkward, pimply 18 year old. Even though I think he's older. And his hair may have been shorter.

Anyway, the point of this ramble is that I finally saw a real celebrity in LA! I'm hoping I'll see a few more during Restaurant Week -- I will keep y'all posted!
