Harvey's, err, Johnnie's, no wait BOB'S BIG BOY BROILER....sheesh!

Yup, it's finally open. After years of red tape, disrepair and some neglect the historic landmark located in the City of Downey, California, has been given new life. I was fortunate enough to be there during the open week. It was a mixed crowd, hot rods, lowriders, lead sleds, classic and muscle cars were sprinkled beneath "the canopy" and around the parking lot. The Broiler buzzed with activity as patrons, old and new, got to get acquainted with the new owners, crew and fresh landscaping and paint. I overheard they're going to make Wednesday evenings their cruise night. So bust out the car, clean her up, wax her down and make sure to leave room for that double-deck burger and fries combo, oh and try the malt-shakes, very good stuff! Viva la Broiler!
