Hanging with the crew

DINNER/MEETING
Last Wednesday evening we all got togehter, Peter Watkinson, Suji Lee, Mona Kasra, Jeffery Mohr, Kate Johnson, Michael Masucci and I. We decided to have dinner at Benvenuto. Michael and Kate had been telling about this place for a while now. It's a great place for pasta and Michael said it's the best LA place for pasta. The building used to be the workshop/studio of the Doors and so, although it's a restaurant now, architecturally, there are many elements interior and exterior that hint the hey days of the Doors. The kitchen window looks vaguely like a sound booth window and the bathroom is advertised as the room "LA Woman" was recorded. Tony of Benvenuto was amazing and really took care of us.he even gave us a complimentary Tiramisus.

EZTV (Kate and Michaerl) used to be across the street and for atleast 2 years, Michael said that Benvenuto was there dining room for lunch and dinner. Tony is very fond of Michael and Kate and everyone enjoyed their meal.

SUMMARY
It was a very good meeting. Tony took a picture of us and we will use that for the initial press for our project at Highways. We also came us with a funny title, "Fingered 7". Michael will work on a three sentence project description and all of these items are due to Highways this Wednesday.
