Stoked you're stepping up. My grandfather found the Hollywood location for Ernie & lent him a Filipino cook to start the first DTBC. He also owned the DTBC in Corona Del Mar in 1970. I know the whole story, and my mom is Kama'aina. I'm always amazed that the involvement & 'authority' of aficionados who lean on a what looks to an old school islander like a fabricated & very recent connection to the origins & soul of all of this. That said, let the da kine aloha be spread...
The CDM location has fascinated me since I found out about it a few years ago. As a kid we lived in Costa Mesa and CDM was where all the rich people lived!! What year did the CDM location close?
She sure is impressive. I may never visit these places, but I love knowing they're being built. ❤❤
Marie is the best!
