Where Britney met Kevin (and destiny)
By William Keck, USA TODAY
HOLLYWOOD - It's the place where Britney Spears met fiancé Kevin
Federline and where you can get lamb souvlaki with a side of rice
pilaf for just $16.
This is the place, in Hollywood, where Britney met her fiancé.

Located in the heart of Tinseltown, the Mediterranean-themed Joseph's
Café has been attracting Hollywood elite since it was opened by the
Armenian/Greek Abrahamian family in 1977.
Joseph's brother (and co-owner), Robert Abrahamian, showed USA TODAY
the famous "Britney" booth next to the dance floor. In the new People,
Spears says of Joseph's: "I always sit at the same table. On the far
right. In the corner, where I can see everything." And that's where
she spied Federline.
"Britney Spears is really down to earth," Abrahamian says. "Sometimes
she'll have one or two bodyguards with her because of the
paparazzi. She'll come in with friends, have a few drinks and get up
and dance."
Abrahamian says there has been a lot more to see since his supper club
was given a cobalt blue/dark wood/wrought-iron face lift and
entertainment was added in 2000. Since then, the clientele is "a
regular who's who," he says.
Spears' ex, Justin Timberlake, and his current steady, Cameron Diaz,
have been part of the action, and Ben Affleck, Mark Wahlberg and Vince
Vaughn are regulars. Janet Jackson chose Joseph's for one of her
birthday bashes.
In a month, Britney's dining room will be given a Moroccan makeover to
provide an even more romantic setting.
