Thursday Throwback August 23, 2015: Sunday DateNight in Koreatown for Jake and Austin


"He is in a restaurant and Jake is there with a guy with curly hair."


" X  just confirmed it is Austin!!!!!!"


Three years ago on this date, August 23, 2015, Oh My Godot's "Grand Poobah" Special K emailed M&M and myself at 8:38pm because a good friend of hers was texting from a restaurant in Los Angeles' Koreatown while spotting Jake with Austin.

We don't know what restaurant, have no Instagram or Twitter picture, but this was from a good friend of Special K's who works in the industry, and therefore is discreet, [Hollywood's version of the code of omertà], but this person has no reason whatsoever to fabricate or misrepresent who was there that evening.

Soooo....what restaurant could it have been?  Well, this picture popped up on tumblr two years later in 2017, Jake with an individual at Koreatown's Parks BBQ:

Well, well, well now.....isn't that interesting?  Parks BBQ is known for having celebrities, although noted in a Yelp review for having an unassuming exterior in a strip mall.


The interior:



A quote from Jake during "Nightcrawler" promo (in an interview now removed from the web:  

"Yeah, the last two movies I made in L.A. have been a lot at night and the parts of Los Angeles that I didn’t grow up in and didn’t know a lot about. This movie, “End of Watch” it was like southeast L.A., all of southeast L.A., and we spent so much time there. So, I started seeing L.A. in a very different way than I had when I grew up around it. Even though, I grew up right on the edge of Koreatown." - nukethefridge.com

A Sunday night meal date and a rare sighting.  Here's to another someday in the near future.  


Bon appetit, fellas!!  ;-)
