Kelbo's, Los Angeles, CA (restaurant) - Locating Tiki

Harvey's Then and Now articles in the LA Times were a favorite of mine when I moved to LA. Now he writes a column in The Grunion. A weekly Long Beach community paper. At the Kelbo's location on Pico one of the tikis was a repurposed pickle that used to adorn the roof of Pickle Bill's restaurant in West L.A. Unfortunately there isn't a picture. http://www.latimes.com/travel/la-trw-then18-2008may18,0,163059.column -Lori [ Edited by: Bora Boris - Fixed link. - 2013-05-11 09:55 ]
