Katie Holmes and Suri Cruise spent a lot of mother-daughter time together (and consequently riled the paparazzi) this week, hitting NYC spots like Balthazar and City Bakery. A crowd of flashing photographers staking out the duo forced Balthazar’s waiters to pull down their shades to block the cameras pressed up against the restaurant’s windows. Meanwhile, another popular pair celebrated their extended wedding anniversary over the weekend: Beyoncé Knowles and hubby Jay-Z were spotted enjoying a romantic dinner downtown. Read our complete roundup of boldface dining below.
