I worked for David Cohn in San Diego at his World Famous Corvette Diner...also the T-Bird Diner in Escondido...I did some work at the Galaxy Grille in Horton Plaza too...I even DJ'd car shows at the original restaurant that started it all for David & Leslie Cohn, Rory's Hot Dogs in Mission Valley.

I've not heard of him doing anything in Seattle, but it wouldn't surprise me, I think he owns most of the San Diego uptown, downtown and bay area...LOL! He even had a couple of Haagen-Daz stores!

He used to throw the best Bowl-O-Rama employee Christmas parties...he threw one bowling ball a year and it was always a strike! A great man and a great friend!

I'm sure there's plenty left to be found, I drive all over the greater L.A./O.C. area and am constantly noticing the remaining bits of tiki/googie in the most unexpected places...a building that has been repurposed, an apartment complex, hotels and houses...it's everywhere if you're on the look-out for it!


Keep on Rockin',
