Restaurant Name: Hard Rock Cafe
No need to describe this world wide chain. Who hasn't been to at least one? In fact, there are so many locations these days that it seems the Hard Rock Cafe, no longer creates the individual image it once generated.
Believe it or not, the first HRC opened in the early 1970's in the city of London, England and it was Eric Clampton who first hung his guitar on the wall near his favorite bar stool that started the the famed tradition.
The Los Angeles location was the first HRC I'd ever been to and it was quite interesting to me. The kids had fun searching the walls for the remnants of past and present Rock Stars, such as clothing items worn by various old and new Rockers on tours or to photo shoots, the handwritten words of John Lennon to the song, "Help," even Elvis Presley's Harley Davidson motorcycle could be seen. The line we stood in to get a table for lunch, was much shorter than the line to buy a souvenir. What surprised me most was that the prices were quite reasonable and the food was very good.
Favorite Dish: The food was unique in the sense that the menu was full of old fashion style hamburgers--not the McDonalds or Jack-in-the-Box type--and other dishes reminiscent of the earlier days of Rock and Roll, when "soda fountains" were the popular hang-out for most teens. Hard Rock even offered the old favorite, Hot Fudge Sundaes and even Root Beer Floats. Of course, the more popular items of the present day are available on the menu as well.
