We’re unclear what she’s doing in town, but Oscar-winner Frances McDormand was spotted today at Blue Bottle at the Ferry Building buying Chemex filters, a purchase that to us implies she’s staying awhile. (Incidentally, last week NY Mag reported that she’ll be returning to Broadway next spring.) As Twitterer Greg S. recounts, “Me: ‘My wife’s name is Frances.’ Her: ‘It’s a good name!’” No word on whether she’s dined yet at Frances. [Grub Street]
