Lunch: TV Titans, Ivana Trump, & Devo! - Posted November 18, 2009
DIANE CLEHANE
You never know who you're going to meet on any given Wednesday at Michael's. I've chatted with former presidents, Oscar winners, and tabloid targets who have made the usually unflappable crowd turn and stare, but it's those unexpected, below the radar moments that are often the most fun. When... [FishBowlNY]

Lunch: Special Evening Edition as Michael's Celebrates 20 Years - Posted November 5, 2009
DIANE CLEHANE
As much as we enjoy observing the social customs of the various media tribes during our Wednesday lunches at Michael's, we jumped at the chance to mingle with the natives last night as they roamed free from the pecking order in the dining room. Michael McCarty threw himself quite... [FishBowlNY]
It's Spin City for Moguls & Machers at Michael's - Posted September 30, 2009
DIANE CLEHANE
The flacks were certainly out in full force today at Michael's. It seemed anyone who was (or represents) anyone was out and about with something to spin. Well, at least it's a sign that life goes on in Manhattan no matter how bleak New York magazine says our financial... [FishBowlNY]

Lunch: Kerry Kennedy, Monica Crowley & Barbara Walters - Posted May 20, 2009
DIANE CLEHANE
Maybe it was the gorgeous pre-Memorial Day weather, but the mood in the dining room at Michael's today was noticeably upbeat. The usual suspects were out in force, and it seems everyone has caught a whiff of the optimism in the air. A welcome change, to say the least.... [FishBowlNY]

Lunch: Barry Diller (on a Vespa!), Harvey Weinstein & Judge Judy - Posted May 6, 2009
DIANE CLEHANE
Maybe it was because it finally stopped raining for five minutes, but the power-lunchers were out in force today at Michael's. There was a crowd gathering in the lounge before noon waiting for tables. Of course, most of the regulars breezed in at their appointed hours, making sure they... [FishBowlNY]

Lunch: Special Post-Inauguration Edition - Posted January 21, 2009
DIANE CLEHANE
The mood was festive at Michael's today, with plenty of Obama buttons on display and lots of talk about the president's stirring inaugural address. Jack Kliger told me, "I thought the whole thing was inspiring. His speech was terrific." Jack had a good laugh about Barack Obama's heartfelt thanks... [FishBowlNY]
Lunch At Michael's: The Dog Days Are Here! - Posted August 8, 2007
DIANE CLEHANE
The morning monsoon that shut down the city for several hours kept all but the true diehards away today at 55th & Fifth. Even general manager Steve Millington was kept from his post due to a weather-related nanny nightmare (we can relate). Others, like our pal Jaqui Lividini, arrived... [FishBowlNY]
Lunch at Michael's: Forget Michael Caine It's Star Jones! - Posted June 6, 2007
Imagine our disappointment when we heard that had we chosen to come by on Monday, we'd have been sipping Bloody Marys at the bar with Claire Danes and Natasha Richardson. Luckily, there were enough faces in today's crowd from filmdom, fashion and, of course, publishing to satisfy our appetite for observing... [FishBowlNY]
Lunch at Michael's: Kate White & Her Lethal Blondes - Posted May 23, 2007
After the last few relatively uneventful Wednesdays, we were thrilled to see the dining buzzing with excitement when we arrived this afternoon. Our favorite Cosmo gal Kate White was celebrating the publication of her latest book, Lethally Blonde, with a ladies lunch at Table One comprised of an intriguing mix of... [FishBowlNY]
Lunch at Michael's: Al Roker, Katie Joel and A Special Birthday Celebration - Posted February 8, 2007
No doubt by attending the Michael's Media Jamboree on a Thursday due to flu and flood, a day later than mediabistro.com's customary weekly report on the media bigwigs who lunch things were bound to be a little off-kilter. But as the slightly-less-than-packed crowd prepared for their cookie plates and... [FishBowlNY]
