Star magazine reports Jake Gyllenhaal recently went on a date with Natalie Portman and showed up with a dozen pink tulips before they headed to dinner at The Spotted Pig.
Okay, he's Jewish on his mother's side (Gyllenhaal was born in Los Angeles, California, the son of director Stephen Gyllenhaal and producer/screenwriter Naomi Foner Gyllenhaal. His father grew up in the Swedenborgian religion and is a descendant of the Swedish noble Gyllenhaal family. His mother is from a New York City Jewish American family; she is the ex-wife of Eric Foner, a history professor at Columbia University. His sister Maggie Gyllenhaal also acts. Gyllenhaal was raised Jewish and had a bar mitzvah at a homeless shelter, as his parents wanted to instill a sense of gratitude for his privileged lifestyle) and she's Jewish from both sides.
But why go on a date to a restaurant called "The Spotted Pig" in a city that has great kosher eateries?
