New, 3 comments

Recently, someone at midtown power lunch spot Michael's decided it would be a good idea stalk their own patrons, often of public note, by constantly posting a running tally of notable guests lunching in their dining room on Twitter. So, we're keeping tabs on their name check. Today, things are without a doubt up a notch from yesterday's C list performance, but this practice still raises the question: Michael's, why?
