OK, so maybe celebrities weren't physically at THOR, but thanks to a photo installation by EJ Camp, you feel like you're dining with them inside the hotel's restaurant Co-Op. The skylit dining room, which contains a 30 foot communal dining table (all the cool kids sit there—which means not us), has 40 iconic New Yorkers plastered across one of its walls in life-size polaroid prints.

Tired of waiting for your food? Have a staring contest with Moby. Getting antsy while the check takes forever to come? Bask in Betsey Johnson's dazzling smile.

One of the celebrities featured on the wall is Sex And The City costume designer Patricia Field. We found her expression a little smug, but we weren't at all surprised to see her there. Co-Op is a branch of the Guerilla Culinary Brigade, which was co-founded by gastronomic event ringmaster Alan Phillips.
