The gist of the party was that everyone had to wear black and/or white, which makes it almost exactly like Diddy’s legendary White Party, except with 500 percent less crippling self-absorption.

Ago, Rare 120, Pink Taco, The Cupcakery, PF Chang’s, Sushi Roku, BOA Steakhouse and The Cookie Zoo were all involved with the spread.
