Well, we made it to the Hong Kong Inn for the last night on Friday. The place was crowded with guests coming to say good bye, including Mr. and Mrs. Bongo Fury. Mr. Jimmy behind the bar one more time after 58 years of mixing. Got to talk to Jimmy for a few minutes, he shared stories of moving to Ventura in 1958, starting the restaurant and sending all of his children through college. Tried the Scorpion bowl. And the Lapu Lapu with the Hong Kong Inn Fantasy appetizer special Grabbed a few keepsakes. End of an era. DC [ Edited by: Dustycajun 2012-12-03 13:10 ] |
