Authors and Actors

A few fun sightings at Jake’s on Market: one reader writes in to say they sat next to Armistead Maupin of Tales of the City fame, while another diner spotted actress Judy Davis, who was in town to accept the Peter J. Owens Award at the San Francisco International Film Festival. Also in town for festival honors, Kenneth Branagh was spotted at Jake’s last Thursday. The reader who got to meet the Shakespearean actor tells us, “Wow, what a nice guy.”

Local treasure Armistead Maupin was spotted dining at the Grand Café with a group of gentlemen (his musical, Tales of the City, is currently running at the nearby ACT). He had the escargots and duck entrée with a glass of the Mumm “red label,” and observers said it looked like he was having a great time.
