Lucy’s El Adobe Cafe
‘ Two Mondays ago, after Mike, from MovieShotsLA, and I finished our tour of Paramount Studios in Hollywood (which I still have yet to blog about), the two of us headed across the street to grab a bite to eat at a little restaurant that has been at the top of my To-Stalk list for…

The Water Street Cafe from “Love Happens”
‘ Just down the street from the former Tabu Boutique, the storefront that masqueraded as Eloise’s Garden in the 2009 movie Love Happens which I blogged about yesterday, is Water Street Cafe, the upscale restaurant where Eloise Chandler (aka Jennifer Aniston) and Burke Ryan (aka Aaron Eckhart) ate dinner during their extremely awkward first date…

The New York County Courthouse from “Law and Order”
‘ One New York filming location that will look familiar to anyone who passes it – unless they’”‘”‘ve been living under a rock for the past ten years – is the New York County Courthouse. This massive building, with it’”‘”‘s hundred foot wide grand staircase and towering granite colonnade, has been featured in thousands of…

Marilyn Monroe’s Former Burbank Apartment Building
‘ Shortly before I headed to Los Angeles for my weeklong birthday celebration with out-of-town friends Kim, Lavonna, Katie and Kaylee (that’s Katie and Kaylee in the above pic), I came across a Curbed post that mapped 43 properties where my girl Marilyn Monroe once lived. The blurb practically had me foaming at the mouth,…

Caesars Palace from “The Hangover”
‘ My recent trip to Las Vegas with the Grim Cheaper was magical, due in large part to the fact that we stayed at Caesars Palace. Neither the GC nor I had ever stayed there before and, while planning our trip, I decided to see what the rates were. I happened to find a remarkably…

El Pollo del Mar from “L.A. Story”
‘ One location that I had been dying to find for years was El Pollo del Mar (yes, that translates to The Chicken of the Sea LOL), aka the supposed Santa Barbara-area resort featured in the 1991 flick L.A. Story. Try as I might, though, I just could not seem to track the place down. …

Lorraine’s House from “Back to the Future”
‘ Back to the Future fans are undoubtedly looking at the photo above thinking, ‘That’s not Lorraine Baines’ (Lea Thompson) house!’ But the Craftsman I am standing in front of, located at 1705 Bushnell Avenue in South Pasadena, did actually serve as her 1955 pad in the movie. Before the die hards get all up…

Kansas City Barbeque Is Back In Business – Just In Time For Halloween!
‘ This weekend, I took a little vacay down to San Diego with my family. Of course, while there I had to do some stalking of the Top Gun Bar, aka Kansas City Barbeque, which sadly has been closed since June 26th of this year due to a major fire. I was very curious to…

Happy Veterans Day!
‘ I would like to wish a very Happy Veterans Day to all of my fellow stalkers and I would also like to say a heartfelt thank you to all of those who have served our military, including the vast majority of my family members. I will be taking today off in honor of Veterans…

Julian Café & Bakery from “Phantasm”
‘ I am not at all a fan of the 1979 movie Phantasm, though you’d never guess it judging by the amount of posts I’ve done on its locations (you can read them here, here, here, here and here). What can I say? Crappy film, fabulous locales! Ever since I first saw the flick last…
