Victor Sen Yung played Hop Sing. I have his cookbook. Sen Yung was No. 2 son in 25 Charlie Chan movies, had a degree in economics and did graduate work at USC and UCLA, and was a Captain in Military Intelligence in WWII.
And his cookbook taught me to scrub rice before you cook it. Cheers, Earl |

I found this image last week while we were finding filming locations around S Serrano Avenue. This is the 1962 Villa Serrano at 351 S Serrano. It's from a book called 'Los Angeles 1976' by Bevan Davies.

My dad knew and toured with LR in the late 50's and 80's. He came by our house with Etta James, i was a kid and didn't know who she was, but i knew for sure who Little Richard was. This was a few years after his crazy run in with Larry Williams and Johnny "Guitar" Watson (aka post his drug era). |

Yes, it was a Spanish style home with a red tile roof and an ornate front door facade. Two story and moderately large. Not a tract house. I couldn't find a photo I could H/L. Maybe someone has it? Johnny Guitar Watson. https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikiped...atson_1977.JPG wiki image UPDATE: This is the home that LA Times says was long ago owned by Little Richard the Originator of Rock n' Roll. https://ca-times.brightspotcdn.com/d...zhd-snap-image LATimes http://jamescolincampbell.com/wp-con...11/10/map1.jpg I toured the area in the google limo-mobile....very upscale and well cared for. You'd be scratchin' to find a home less than one million dollars in that neighborhood. |

A rare glimpse inside the St. Germain Cafe. "1916 UNION IRON WORKS DINNER BUILT STEAMERS LA BREA & LOS ANGELES" https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...924/LsvNGx.jpg eBay At first glance I thought there was a large mirror on the left but as you can see, in the close-up below, it is actually a side room. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...923/cgI6V9.jpg There is a fairly ornate ceiling, as well as filigree details along the upper portions of the walls. . .and art nouveau wallpaper. Whomever owned the photograph knew someone named "Edwin". (see below) https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/1...923/IqyOLk.jpg & finally, here's a closer look at the information on the photograph. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/8...924/MtNidX.jpg For search purposes:....Dinner given by the Union Oil Co. to the men of Union Iron Works who built the who built the steamers LaBrea & Los Angeles.....St. Germain Cafe...Jan. 18, 1916. So here's my question: Was the St. Germain Cafe located in the Germain Building on Spring Street, downtown? :shrug: . |

While searching for the St. Germain Cafe I happened upon this image of a St. Germain Restaurant in the 3rd Street area. https://imagizer.imageshack.com/v2/8...924/MgjvdT.jpg googlebooks Refresh my memory -have we seen this place previously on NLA? . |

:previous: That's curious. It has the exact same grill work. Perhaps it had the same architect too. |
