Lindsay Lohan's East Coast Getaway

Keeping busy in the Big Apple, Lindsay Lohan has been making the most of her recent trip out east to New York City.

Earlier today, the Mean Girls actress was spotted leaving the Mercer hotel, heading off to Bar Pitti for a bite to eat.

As word spread that the recovering starlet was inside, a group of young fans quickly gathered near the restaurant's exit - with Lindsay kindly signing a few autographs and shaking a few hands before being swept away back to her hotel after getting ambushed by a huge pack of photographers.

Meanwhile, the night before, LiLo enjoyed a night out with family and friends, dining at the Spotted Pig with mother Dina, sister Ali and pal Samantha Ronson.

After their meal, Lindsay and Sam scooted a few blocks over to the Beatrice Inn, where they reportedly "partied like teetotalers well into the night".
