Yellow Pages • 1959 I didn't know that Take Out Food was once known as Chicago Style. • 1964 The Q Room Cocktail Lounge makes way for the Mauna Loa Tropical Room and the Exotic Macao Bar. • 1970 You want Tiki? We got Tiki. Here's the ad from 1964 as it appears in the phone book with some of the other restaurants around it. I like the way KAWAFUKU reads down the side and who wouldn't waste a wish by having a Genie cook you a shish kabob? :wink: [ Edited by: bora Boris 2008-05-20 10:19 ]
