Could Whoopi Golberg's next project be opening a restaurant of her own?

"She was in a great mood. After her tour, Whoopi posed for photos with the staff," an onlooker tells PEOPLE. "She even went into the kitchen to pose with the sous chefs."

When in Rome ... Gerard Butler dines like he's in Brooklyn!
Over the weekend, the actor was spotted checking out the original Antica Pesa outpost with girlfriend Madalina Ghenea. The couple enjoyed lunch on Saturday afternoon with Butler's Olympus Has Fallen costar Aaron Eckhart.
The actors were in Italy to promote their new flick, and they were were greeted personally by the restaurant's chef-owner Simone Panella, who prepared a selection of farm-to-table dishes for the stars. The two actors even posed with Panella and will join other celebrity guests on the wall of fame.
Their appetizers included artichoke and ricotta cheese pie; prosciutto and mozzarella cheese; octopus salad with Roman broccoli; grilled vegetables and a fresh vegetable followed by a small tasting of cacio e pepe pasta.
And for dessert they also indulged in tiramisu, white chocolate semifreddo and creme brulée – all while smoking Cohiba cigars.

Justin Timberlake & Jessica Biel Dine – Separately – with Pals in Vegas
Originally posted 03/26/2013 06:00AM
Justin Timberlake and Jessica Biel were both in Las Vegas over the weekend, but not for date night.
Timberlake made it a guys' evening out on Friday, kicking off the festivities at Yellowtail Japanese restaurant and lounge inside the Bellagio hotel.
Coming in around 10 p.m., the newlywed went incognito, casually dressed – and wearing a cap – to the point that no one in the restaurant seemed to recognize him. Seated in the main dining area, he did not appear to get any special treatment, though he seemed to be having a good time, munching on sashimi made by Chef Akira Back, and chatting and laughing with his pals. At one point, his hit song "Suit & Tie" came on.

But if you don't live in The City That Never Sleeps, you can now cook up a version of the 7 oz. treat at home. Just don't expect DeLucie to give up all his secrets: The special sauce will have to be your own creation. All he'll tell PEOPLE is it's "sweet, tangy, slightly salty and utterly satisfying."
