LOS ANGELES—When it comes to the annual pre-Oscar festivities, might the recession actually benefit local restaurant this year?

'If you're a studio with a nominee you're going to have a dinner at a restaurant. Something that's very small and very exclusive. Not large scale parties for upwards of 500 people.'" [AFP]
