Bev Hills: Christmas lunch at Spago, Christmas shopping at the Wine Merchant

I just had lunch with my dad and sister at Spagos in BH and afterwards we walked around before retourne a la offeeeese! My dad’s bestie, attorney Don Fenmore, came too and brought along his little girl, who is actually my “big sister” cause she is older than me, Miss Tanya Fenmore who I always love to see. Tanya has two degrees from Harrrrrvud, and now works in film. She told us all about the new reality show she is developing [more to come later]. My sister Yvette got me a stuffed bunny for Christmas and our dad ordered him carrots. Everyone kept asking me why I brought my raggedy old stuffed animal to lunch and we were all VERY insulted.

 

Outside we ran into L.A. Natives Alex Klein (left) and Matt Klein (right) with their dad (middle). They are our neighbors in Malibu, went to Campbell and work in their family's seafood business - What a couple of hot catches!!

After lunch we went to the Wine Merchant to buy presents. I got in trouble for taking pictures but then I bought a crate of “splits” for my mom’s birthday (my mom LOOOVESSSS splits) coming up on Dec 30th and I think the ‘wine merchant’ was proud of my selection and forgave me. Note: My favorite thing in the world is a big giant crate of anything miniature. Then the fabulous director of beverages from across the street at the Montage, Dave Wallace came in and BOUGHT THE EXACT SAME CRATE!!! I said “OH! You’re buying a crate of the wine I just bought a crate of!” I thought it was so random, yet so astute of me to be choosing the same BOX! the Montage made a special trip over because they ran out. I was very proud of myself. The beverage director invited me to come have a glass of wine with him any time and I think I just might. He was at the Laguna Montage before this and came up here to open up Beverly Hills. He told me the hotel is at 100+ capactiy all Christmas. Which means there are 100 people on the waiting list through New Years! Anyone on the list, if you love the Montage as much as I do, you can come stay with me and my mom in our Pied a Tier on Burton … just a few blocks East!

Outside the Wine Merchant we ran into Arthor Sarkissian. Not only is he the talented producer of While You Were Sleeping and ALL the Rush Hours, he is also the father of my step siblings. Arthor was getting his glasses fixed at Luxurator by Franco … Arthor has impecable taste and everyone should do everything he does. If I have glasses one day I am definitely taking them here.

Pretty interior inside Luxurator by Franco - the material is Hermes organce snake or maybe crocodile

I also saw this really strange car outside Spago and after wondering if it was the new Fisker or some wierd thing, the Valet told me it was kit car but I am looking into and will have a lisense plate check run and post more if it’s worth knowing about.
