Event Hosted By Darrell Start slideshow LA GreekFest Celebs Written By Darrell 09/15/2006 click for full size Yes, that's our own Hillary rubbing shoulders with the Mayor and Nia Vardalos. Several MILA'ers joined me at the LA Greekfest. There seemed to be a bit of confusion as to the meeting location, but those that found me were treated to the second best table at the Greekfest. While waiting for the others, I had plenty of opportunity to sample the fare of the day as well as several shots of Ouzo. Met Nia Vardalos, a very friendly and down to earth person, the star of "My Big Fat Greek Wedding" which was partially financed by Tom Hanks and wife/actress Rita Wilson who also sat at the table next to us as well as the Mayor. Sorry, no pics of Tom and Rita as security asked me not to take their pics unless I wanted to leave the secured area were we were sitting and fight the hordes of fans, so I was quite content to enjoy my MILA company and my Ouzo. It was fun when a couple MILA'ers wanted to get back to our table and security wouldn't let them in until I waived them in and security allowed them in. LOL, I felt like a star for a good 30 seconds. To be honest, I was a little disappointed in the food there, I was hoping for better. However, I did manage to drown my disappointment with Ouzo. More Photos
