Hugh Hefner and his girlfriends (3) stopped at Impellizzeri's just after close Friday night. They had just left the Barnstable-Brown party. Hef stayed in the car. The girls came in with camera crew in tow. They filmed the whole visit for their show, The Girls Next Door. The producer came by Saturday night with releases to sign. Supposed to e-mail me when the footage will be aired.

After trying to sue one of the highest profile restaurants in town last year, I don't think anyone invited him.

I worked the Winner's Party and was told that the guy from Entourage was there, but I never saw him. Believe me, I looked! However, I did get to stick my nose in the rose garland on Sunday morning while we were cleaning.

On Wednesday evening, we catered dinner for Nigel Barker, America's Next Top Model and his family
On Friday evening, we had 3 NFL refs in the restaurant for dinner. Not Hef or Andie, but we were happy to make their Derby experience a good one.
It's the hand of the cook that expresses the heart.

Prince Albert was in town this year. Some friends became fairly close with him several Derbys ago & he goes to their private party each year when he comes into town. Seems very nice.

On Derby Eve, hubby and I brushed past Adrian Grenier. We were leaving Fourth Street Live! at 1am (ok, so technically Derby Day); Adrian was entering 4th and was hand-in-hand with a young woman. I swear I heard him say... "There's that woman from the Louisville Hot Bytes Forum!".

Lucky! I'm never in the right place at the right time. I was probably replenishing the shrimp cocktail at my buffet table while you were rubbing elbows with the rich and famous. :wink:

Speaking of shrimp cocktail--I found it unbelievable that all these wealthy people thought it was okay to just throw the tails on the buffet table instead of in a napkin or plate. I was disgusted!
