Julia Roberts may eat a lot of pizza in Eat Pray Love, but it wasn't Italian food she was feasting on last night.

The Oscar winner was spotted at famed chef Thomas Keller's legendary French Laundry in Napa Valley with one heck of a posse and quite the delectable spread.

Who was there and what were they doing? Read on to find out. Plus, which celeb toasted his birthday with some nightclubbing and a tequila-filled house party?

Roberts and a group of about 20, including costars Javier Bardem, Billy Crudup, Richard Jenkins, director Ryan Murphy and producer DeDe Gardner, enjoyed a seven-course tasting menu. Keller and Chef de Cuisine Timothy Hollingsworth prepared everything from oysters and macaroni and cheese to plates of cinnamon doughnuts and honey-glazed Santa Rosa plums.

Back in Hollywood, Jeremy Piven turned 45 with some partying at Bardot nightclub followed by a private bash at his house with lots of Alma de Agave tequila. Over in Venice, Step Up 3-D star Rick Malambri hosted a "Players Know" dinner last night for his costars and dancers from the Hulu series The Legion of Extraordinary Dancers at the K-Swiss loft. Yes, the evening included an impromptu dance-off.

Meanwhile, across the country in NYC, rocker man Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones helped his wife Patti Hansen, Molly Madden and Deb Koppel launch their Hung on U handbags at a Martini & Rossi-hosted cocktailer at the Standard Hotel. Also in the city, Meg Ryan took in a performance of Helen Hunt in Off-Broadway's Our Town.

And what would a week of celebrity sightings be without our girl, Holly Madison. The E! reality star, whose season finale is on Sunday, stepped out last night to the new Social House at CityCenter in Las Vegas.
