Restaurants and bars

We all know about Bobby DeNiro’s Nobu sushi franchise (seriously, he’s even opened one in the world’s most remote English-speaking city, Perth), so we’ve focused on a few you might have missed:

Mike Dirnt of Green Day (Oakland, CA):

The recently opened second rock’n'roll themed café — named for a Clash song — is set next to the historic Fox Theater in Oakland’s rising ‘Uptown’ neighborhood, which was pretty much a ghost town a few years ago. Makes sense to co-owner Mike Dirnt (Green Day’s bassist), who was born in town. It’s a bit of a ’50s throw-back, with thematic dolls and a hearty gamut of diner fare.

Morgan Freeman: Ground Zero Blues Club Clarksdale, Mississippi

Near the crossroads  down on Highway 61, where Robert Johnson supposedly sold his soul for guitar prowess, Clarksdale is a slightly worn Delta town with a heavy dose of blues and barbecue. (April’s Juke Joint festival is a sidewalk-spiller scene of ribs and blues bands; unreal). The town’s focal point, right by the tracks, is the paint-peeling brick building known as Ground Zero, a blues bar co-owned by Morgan Freeman. It’s only 10, but looks 80 — in all the right ways.

Carlos Santana: Maria Maria Walnut Creek & San Diego, CA; Austin, TX

The Grammy-winning guitarist named his mini chain (four locations) of modern Mexican fare after his hit song. Food makes regulars forget any celeb connection, though if they look closely at the artist signature they can remember (Carlos’ art decorates the walls).

Shops and clubs

Jack White: Third Man Records Nashville

Jack Whites — of White Stripes and ‘Cold Mountain’  fame — opened this record shop in Nashville a couple years ago. He won’t likely be manning the register when you go by, but it’s clearly a business true to his unique aesthetic and something he means. It recently starred on the Comedy Central TV show, the Colbert Report, where the mock-conservative talking head recorded with the label’s band Black Belles.

Dave Eggers: 826 Valencia San Francisco

Eclectic author, the guy behind the  McSweeney’s literary journal, created this not-for-profit writing center/shop to inspire youth to write in San Francisco’s Mission District. It’s also a shop, famed for its pirate supplies for the ‘working buccaneer.’ See Eggers talk, nervously, on how he started it for TED Talks.

Susan Sarandon: SPiN  New York City

She doesn’t know how to play ping pong, or really care to learn, but she likes any sport where a little girl can beat a tough guy. It’s as much playing as, the site confesses, drinking or people-watching. The catch is to play you must apply for membership — starting at $65 a month (the application requires self-evaluation at ping-pong skills, a seven-tiered rating from ‘embarrassing’ to ‘professional’).

Carly Simon: Midnight Farm Martha’s Vineyard, Massachusetts

In Vineyard Haven on Martha’s Vineyard  Carly Simon co-owns the shop Midnight Farm, a precious little shop that covers most bases: wall art, sundresses, hand creams, books, and signed copies of Carly’s CDs of course.
