Zombieland Premiere in Hollywood

Shannon Elizabeth made her very first trip to Candle 79 recently and decided let her Twitter followers know where she was headed.

“Heading to lunch w/a friend to a vegan place I’ve been wanting to try-will let you know how it is! Then rehearsals….”

Luckily, Shannon wasn’t too full and overwhelmed not to Tweet about the experience.

“Lunch was awesome! Went to Candle 79 on the Upper East side-amazing food-met the owners-they’re very sweet!”

Candle 79 is an upscale vegetarian restaurant in New York City that serves as the sister restaurant of the more casual Candle Cafe.

The restaurant that’s been featured in prestigious publications such as Time, Vegetarian Times, Forbes and VegNews was established in 2003 as the demand for good vegetarian food grew.

Now that we know the famous American Pie web cam dancer might be frequenting it more often, we’ll definetely bookmark the menu and try to make it to Manhattan’s Upper East Side soon.

Pokerstars.net and the Hollywood office of the Humane Society of the United States recently got together for an evening of gambling, vegan snacks, and fun.

Actress Jorja Fox looked lovelier than ever as she played her chips and cards and fellow veggie actress Shannon Elizabeth was also dealing a sharp hand to help the animals. 

Proceeds from the “Casino Royale: Playing for Change” event went towards implementing the Los Angeles HSUS’s End Dogfighting program, which educates high risk youth about caring for pit bulls versus putting them up for dogfighting. The program has already proven successful in other large cities like Chicago.

This past weekend’s event included blackjack, roulette, craps and poker, a martini and wine bar, gourmet vegan food catered by Madeleine Bistro, a silent auction, and a celebrity poker tournament.

Wonder if vegan poker great Daniel Negreanu made an appearance?

Read more about the event on the Humane Society’s blog at hsus.org and look at  more pics from the evening on their Flickr page.
