Spotted: Gossip Girls Cast On Upper East Side Lunch Break

A tipster sent us pictures of the cast of Gossip Girl taking a break from filming to get lunch. Of course when you're every Upper East side kid's wet-dream, "grabbing lunch" means a table at the hottest paninoteca which is where cast members Penn Badgley, Ed Westwick, Chace Crawford and Jessica Szohr were found.

"Spotted at Via Quadronno on upper east side. Filming of gossip girl was shot at this UES hot spot, where east side trophy wives, society doyennes and debutantes gather for their daily cappuccino and panini fix. After shooting, the cast including Vanessa [Szohr], Chuck Bass [Westwick], Dan Humphrey [Badgley] and Nate Archibald [Crawford] stayed for lunch- causing [one] private school plaid-clad posse to peek through the windows and try to secure a table next to the lot. But Via was packed today, good thing we are pushy biatches and scored a table... Albeit not next to the posse. If we had been.... It would have been hard not to stare... Not only because of the fame proximity.... But because the actors are so short! We tried to get a better view after lunch of the actors shooting a scene on 74th.... But no luck... The bouncers were struggling to keep the hordes of 12 year old girls from attacking Chace Crawford who turned around, gave a quick wave, and then turned his attention back to his male assistant. We did see Vanessa, in a black peacoat with gold buttons."
