Tommy Turns Sixty

While we're on the subject of food, Tommy's turned sixty, according to an article in yesterday's L.A. Times. Events were complete with Elvis impersonators and lots of people with personal stories of arduous treks and extraordinary effort to reach the Land of Milk and Honey (or, chili burgers and tamales).

My flight to Japan the first time I moved here (March 1992) was on a Saturday morning. A group of about twenty of my friends (including at least one vegetarian) met at Tommy's for breakfast before seeing me off to the airport. Somewhere, there are photos...

And somewhere, I still have my Tommy's Fortieth Anniversary t-shirt.
