Three Places for Getting Your Regis Philbin Fix

January 18, 2011 at 3:38 PM | by | Comments (0)

This morning, Regis Philbin announced that he would be retiring from the Live With Regis & Kelly show after 28 years of hosting it and it's previous iterations. Now this news probably won't crush you and send you into a flurry over how to get your Regis fix when his final season finishes up, but just in case...

Here's three places to find The Reg when he's out and about around the world:

· Mar-A-Lago:: Guess who is a close, personal friend of Donald Trump? That's right—Regis! As a result, he and his wife Joy have enjoyed many, many trips down to vacation at Trump's Mar-A-Lago resort in Palm Beach, Florida. He always seems to just be returning from a trip here, where he rubs elbows with other frequent Mar-A-Lago guests like Oprah and Barbara Walters. In order to get in, you can't simply book a room or a tee time; you've got to be invited, a guest of a member (ah hem property owner) of the Mar-A-Lago Club, or a name in your own right.

· Il Tinello Restaurant: This Italian restaurant in the middle of Midtown Manhattan hasn't got "Agnolotti al Regis" on the menu for any old reason; Il Tinello is a favorite of Philbin's. The crowd does skew older, but the service, meals and value for price consistently score high marks. With all the shout-outs he's given on the show, we're surprised Il Tinello has managed to retain its under-the-radar reputation.

· On a Crystal Cruise: For vacation, if Regis and Joy aren't at Mar-A-Lago, there's a very definite possibility that they've gone the cruise route instead, boarding yet another Crystal Cruises ship. Regis is usually onboard either as a guest performer/entertainment host to interact with other cruisers, or as himself, a regular guy just cruising with his wife and some other friends.
