Where to Eat During AFM 2026: Century City and Beverly Hills’ Best Restaurants

AFM 2026 is in the center of the independent film business dealmaking world and close to many of the entertainment biz’s favorite restaurants. Century City and nearby Beverly Hills are home to the major agencies, law firms and financing entities, which equals power lunching and see-and-be-seen gathering spots close to the confab. Throw in some legendary eateries, and AFMers are perfectly positioned to dine where Hollywood dealmakers, agency foot soldiers and bold names eat out. Century City’s dining options start at the host venue: Birdie G’s is the Fairmont Century Plaza’s new full-service restaurant. Expect classic American cooking in a relaxed setting. There will be mobile coffee stations and daily grab-and-go items near the Fairmont’s lower-level conference rooms. Choices include hearty breakfast burritos, creative salads and an array of sandwiches. At the adjacent Westfield Century City, where AFM badge holders can take advantage of a discount program, more than 65 food outlets populate the multi-level, open-air mall. Specializing in dim sum, Din Tai Fung (10250 Santa Monica Blvd., second level, dtf.com) excels in Taiwan-style, handmade soup dumplings and flavorful noodle dishes. Waits can be extensive, so sit at the bar, reserve ahead or use yelp.com to join the real-time waitlist.

Gram Parsons celebrated in song by Emmylou Harris, Elvis Costello on eve of his Rock Hall induction

WEST HOLLYWOOD, Calif. (AP) — Joy and sorrow were in harmony at a musical tribute to Gram Parsons , the country-rocker who on Saturday will enter the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame 53 years after his death at age 26. At the legendary Los Angeles-area Troubadour club, Parsons’ songs as a member of the Byrds , as a founder of the Flying Burrito Brothers and as a solo artist essential to rock's early 1970s turn toward country were performed Wednesday night by Elvis Costello , Sheryl Crow , the Black Crowes and, most important by far, Emmylou Harris . In a partnership that lasted less than two years, Parsons and Harris combined to create some of the most heartaching harmonies ever recorded. Then he died from an overdose in 1973.

We did it a lot of times.” Then she added, quietly as if to herself, “But not enough.” Harris, who had been an unknown folk singer when Parsons met her at a club in Washington, D.C., had thought she'd
