On Wednesday night, Adam Sandler showed up with 30 of his closest friends—well, okay, mostly just people who collaborated on his new flick The Cobbler—for dinner at Hudson Kitchen, the restaurant that hosted A-listers like Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston and Colin Firth during last year’s TIFF. The Happy Gilmore star sported a DuWest-appropriate uniform of sneakers and plaid, and sat at a four-top with his mother, co-producer Allen Covert and co-star Ellen Barkin. As the meal came to a close, the gregarious group gave chef Robbie Hojilla a round of applause. Either they’re great actors or the miso-glazed short ribs really were that good.
