Roku Rocks: Friday would probably be dinner at Sushi Roku, then a movie. Sushi Roku is all about the Chilean sea bass and lobster rolls. I’d probably wind up at the Beverly Connection or somewhere on Hollywood Boulevard. Bigger theaters, better screens, comfortable seats.

Shop Shape: On Saturday morning I get up and have a casual breakfast by my pool. Shopping definitely, if I have the time. Generally I stop by Fred Segal, Prada or sometimes I dip into Barneys and see what’s happening. And I’ll generally drop by my mom and dad’s antique store, called Brenda Antin. They have three of them--one in Hollywood and two in Santa Monica. And sometimes, I’ll visit my brother’s salon called Jonathan in West Hollywood. I generally drop in to see my brother and get my hair cut.

Getting Hungry: Saturday night is dinner with friends. My other favorite restaurant is Il Sole on Sunset Boulevard. It’s absolutely delicious Italian food. The Robespierre steak and arugula salad are heavenly. Then as many movies as possible. From the ridiculous to the sublime, whatever I haven’t seen. I’ll see two if I can.

Good Times: On Sunday morning, first thing by the pool with the New York Times and the L.A. Times. And then I love to do the Beverly Hills Hotel Fountain Bar, which is just paradise for brunch. I’ve been going there since I was a kid. It’s always bacon and eggs or a killer fried egg sandwich. Sunday afternoon is always reading scripts at home. I tend to read over and over books that I love. It’s generally something by Flannery O’Connor or Ellen Gilchrist short stories. Or I’ll try to read the current New York Times bestseller. Reading for me on a Sunday is just so relaxing.
