Speaking of Lost, last night Michael Emerson (a.k.a Henry Gail/Ben Linus) from Lost came into my restaurant to eat. I didn’t serve him, but the girl that did said he was very nice, grateful, and down to earth. I did drop off some maguro sashimi to his table, and he looks creepier in real life than he does in the show.
Michael Emerson joins an ever-growing list of quasi-celebrities that have come into Sansei. It includes Stephen Baldwin, Tennessee Titans kicker Rob Bironas, Honolulu Mayor Mufi Hannemann, Goldberg, and the Backstreet Boys (seriously).
man, now i wanna work there. but only on celebrity encounter days. i guess it’d be more fun to work on the set of LOST, though, maybe i should shoot for that instead.
