David Duchovny

“Well I grew up there so I got a million “only in New York” stories, but … right now I’m a big Candle Cafe guy. My daughter’s gone vegan recently and we like Candle Cafe, on the East and West side. So maybe I’ll get a free piece of tofu out of that plug.”

—David Duchovny, in Gothamist, explaining that although he’s a multimillionaire actor, he’s not above doing a gig for a free piece of soy.

Carla Bruni-Sarkozy, First Lady of France and wife of Nicolas Sarkozy, enjoyed vegan fare from Candle Cafe at an event intended to honor her for her work with Global Fund to Fight AIDS, Tuberculosis and Malaria.

Carla was accompanied by her husband and Jordan’s Queen Rania.

The party was hosted by Peter Chernin and Tom Freston along with his wife, author Kathy Freston, who happens to be vegan.

Other guests included Brian Grazer, Charlie Rose, Christy Turlington and Howard Schultz

Carla is already fur-free, as she announced this several months ago.

Will the delish vegan food from Candle Cafe make her want to go meat-free as well?

Vegan Peter Max Paints 44 Obamas

6th Annual Women's Day Red Dress Awards

When vegan artist Peter Max wasn’t dining at Candle Cafe in his neighborhood, he was busy putting 44 faces on President Barack Obama.

Max has painted portraits of the U.S.’s last five presidents, and to celebrate Obama as the 44th president, Max painted 44 different portraits.

He used numerous photos provided to him by CBS and began working before the Christmas Holiday season.

He debuted the portraits CBS’ “The Early Show” last month.

This is not the first of a series of portraits Max has completed. After the 9/11 tragedy, he took nine months to paint all 343 faces of the firefighters who died that day for the American Heroes’ project, a gift to the firefighters’ families.

A portion of the money generated from the Obama portraits will go towards orphanages, according to Max.
