If It's Not NOLA, Zagat Might Not Like It
Tim Zagat was spotted at Babbo recently, dining with his wife and taking in David Blaine's card tricks. Zagat is currently going NOLA crazy and promoting a "patriotic tourism" campaign to lure visitors back to the city. We wish the industry down there the best, but our intentions are clearly no match for Zagat's wild fervor. He was just made an honorary citizen of the city, and has previously hosted dining tours as part of the NYC <3 NOLA campaign.
Zagat is so patriotic and New Orleans-obsessed that it looks like his love for the rest of the great U.S. of A. is waning: he recently dissed the White House's cuisine, calling it "strange."
Expect a sighting of the Zagats dining with the Jolie-Pitts to pop up sooner rather than later.
Also possibly Zagat related, yesterday, we spotted what we think could have been Zagat's Bentley at a recent hotel conference outside the Century City Hyatt in LA (was it you Tim?)--its license plate read "ZAGATS." If it wasn't the man himself, someone needs to inform him of how his biggest fans roll.
