The photo gives a rare glimpse of the inside of Aloha Jhoe's: You can see the clamshell-shaped "Aloha Jhoe's Orchid Bowl" from the menu photos that DC posted. Also the famous Sascha Brastoff candle holder, (though I'm wondering now, could it have been used as a holder for a tall collins glass instead?). I love the elaborate hat that the waitress is wearing. Here's the article about Don The Beachcomber's, that posted the photo: http://www.desertsun.com/story/life/2014/09/07/don-the-beachcomber-palm-springs/15123257/# Oh yeah - the folks sitting at the table are Janice and Frank Bogert, (the former mayor of Palm Springs).
