Actors used to have to win awards to qualify as A-list celebrities, but nowadays you really haven't made it until you open a restaurant.

Gerard Butler of "300" is the latest to join the actor/restaurateur crowd: His Korean BBQ joint SHIN opened in Hollywood earlier this week.

Butler, who was spotted making out with reality star Shanna Moakler at the restaurant opening, has a bevy of celeb-investor friends on board, including music producer Mark Ronson, Strokes frontman Julian Casablancas and DJ Steve Aoki.

Oh yeah, and the food. The traditional Seoul-style dishes--thick sliced pork belly, bone-out marinated beef ribs and BBQ tiger shrimp have us interested in more than just star factor.
