A Paramount Birthday

Hearsay wants to take a moment and wish a very special lady a very Happy Birthday. Her name is Annie, and she’s Paramount. (Not to mention extremely youthful for her 80 years!) On August 20, there was a party for Annie at her namesake restaurant, a steakhouse that offers quality, value and good, down-to-earth cooking. Not to mention jumbo martinis! This week’s issue will feature more Scene from Monday’s event, but Hearsay, wily little creature that it is, has snagged a few outtakes for your viewing pleasure, including one of Hearsay’s favorite waiter, Mano, giving MIss Annie a smoocheroo. (And FYI, throughout the remainder of August, Annie’s is offering a special — get a free slice of birthday cake with any entree. So go on, get your sugar on!) Annies 1.jpg
