MY DAD WAS THE CATERING MANAGER AT CHASEN’S FOR 15 YEARS.
CLARK GABLE, MARYLYN MONROW, HOWARD HUGHS, JIMMY STEWARD, BETTY GRABLE, FRANK SINATRA, DINO, SAMMY DAVIS, JACK WARNER, RITA HAYWARD, FRED ASTAIRE, AND ON & ON.
I HAVE MANY FOND MEMORIES OF THAT ERA, AND STORIES TO REMEMBER.
CHASEN’S USED TO SUPPLY TWA WITH ALL THE FOOD AT L.A.X.
ALSO DID THE PREMIER WEEK-LONG CATERING FOR THE HOWARD HUGHES FLYING BOAT LAUNCH IN LONG BEACH.
Hi Roger, and thanks for stopping by. Wow! I knew that Chasen’s and TWA and Howard Hughes had a relationship, but I didn’t know the specifics. Thanks for sharing that with us.
