Interior Brown Derby corner of Wilshire Blvd and Rodeo Drive, Beverly HillsThe Brown Derby restaurant on Vine Street was famous for its caricatures of the famous faces that dined there. This shot is from the one on Wilshire Blvd on the corner of Rodeo Drive where they hung photos instead. It was built in 1931, and was more popular with the Beverly Hills crowd so it was busiest on Thursday nights which was the traditional “maid’s night off”. God forbid those people should make their own grilled cheese sandwich for dinner.

    LOL! You’re so right. I’d love to plop down there, save all the cigarette smoke, though.
