I learned this week about a famous Hollywood steakhouse that was once housed in what was now a Bristol Farms grocery store—but, thankfully, the store has preserved a corner of the famous haunt, so now shoppers can eat a pre-packaged chicken salad sandwich in a booth where Greta Garbo and Frank Sinatra once (maybe) sat. Added to to-do list.
